What accessories are available for the MGA 1033 Magnetic Field Generator / Analyzer?

Like every Schlöder GmbH product, the MGA 1033 is complemented by a powerful portfolio of accessories. With our field coils and sensor coils, you can easily generate and measure magnetic fields. Homogeneous magnetic fields and field strengths from 1000 A/m to 1 kHz can be generated with single or triple-axis Helmholtz coils such as HCS 50-28 and HCST 50-28. In the MGA 1033, they work with the optional MGA 1032 compensation board to compensate for coil inductance. As a result, the MGA 1033 meets numerous magnetic field requirements of the EMC and military standards MIL-STD 461. If you want to perform tests for conducted immunity on power lines according to MIL-STD-461, CS 101, our coupling transformer is used. Because this operates with a differential amplifier due to the high common-mode voltage on the line side, the coupled differential voltage can be measured without any problems.

MGA 1033 accessories:

  • Helmholtz coils
  • Helmholtz coil for direct current
  • Sensor and field coils
  • Hall sensor
  • Field coil
  • Test adapter
  • Coupling transformer, DO-160 Sec. 19
  • Coupling transformer, MIL-STD-461, CS101

Fully automatic tests

Combined with a Triax-Helmholtz coil, you can test EUTs in three axes with this magnetic field generator. Particularly practical: You do not have to rotate the EUT for this. With the MGA 1033, magnetic field strengths up to 1000 A/m at frequencies from DC to 1 kHz are no problem; smaller field strengths can be realized up to 250 kHz.

Calibrate Helmholtz coil

You can calibrate the Helmholtz coil by combining it with a sensor coil (RLS 133 or LS 133). Alternatively, you can use your own, customer-specific coils. A calibration mode in the MGA 1033 software allows you to connect further test equipment.

Self-calibration

Due to the highly stable voltage source of the Schlöder MGA 1033, self-calibration is also possible. Here, the correction values are stored in an internal EEPROM. This self-calibration is fast and uncomplicated: All relevant device units are included in the process - an automatic process completed in about one minute.

What is a Helmholtz coil?

Two flat, circular coils sit spaced apart on an axis - with current flowing through them in the same direction. In the center between the coils, a zone of homogeneous magnetic field is created. At the same time, the special arrangement of the Helmholtz coil allows a homogeneous magnetic field to be built up.
