Instruction manual
10/23 MH/ALF/UD
1. Safety instructions
Safe operation of this equipment is guaranteed
as long as it is used as stipulated. Safety cannot
be guaranteed, however, if the equipment is used
incorrectly or carelessly.
If there is a suspicion that it is no longer possible
to operate the equipment safely (e.g. visible dam-
age, live components exposed to contact), the
equipment is to be taken out of action immedi-
ately.
Caution: In order to prevent the coil from get-
ting damaged due to overheating, do not ex-
ceed the maximum current consumption of
1.5 A DC.
The equipment may only be used in dry
rooms.
2. Description
This equipment kit is designed for recording hys-
teresis curves (magnetic flux density B as a func-
tion of magnetic field strength H) in cores made
of various ferro-magnetic materials.
The equipment kit consists of a cylindrical coil
with 850 windings mounted on a base plate.
Three different samples of iron can be used as a
core for the coil. A holder on the base plate is de-
signed to accommodate a field sensor. 4-mm
sockets are provided for connection of a function
generator and an oscilloscope. A resistor for tak-
ing measurements is connected in series with the
coil.
