The GM93B gaussmeter connects to a Windows PC or battery powered laptop and comes with a powerful visualisation and logging software package, HirstMagLab v1. The GM93B gaussmeter simultaneously measures the three component axes of the magnetic field, allowing for an accurate reading of field intensity, regardless of how the probe is held. An optional probe mountContinue reading “New 3 axis bench top gaussmeter added to the range”

National Physical Laboratory (NPL), Teddington, UK, install new PFM08-40 MT
The National Physical Laboratory (NPL), Teddington, UK, install a new 08-40 MT Pulsed Field Magnetometer (PFM). This is a replacement for the aging Hirst PFM15-50 from 2014 and gives NPL a full -40℃ to +220℃ temperature test range on magnetic samples up to 40mm in diameter. For more information on NPLs magnetic test capabilities click here For moreContinue reading “National Physical Laboratory (NPL), Teddington, UK, install new PFM08-40 MT”
Generation 8 PFM – revision 3 hardware delivers fully modular PFMs
The third revision of the PFM08 hardware platform contains improvements to the Automated Sample Handling (AH) Pulsed Field Magnetometers (PFM) specifically the PFM08-10 HT AH and the PFM08-40 HT/MT AH making these fully modular with interchangeable pickup coils, faster charging, class leading precision sample temperature control and extended sample temperature test ranges. The class leading precision sample control is further improved with theContinue reading “Generation 8 PFM – revision 3 hardware delivers fully modular PFMs”

New Automated sample Handling (AH) version of PFM08-10 added to the Generation 8 PFM range
The new 08-10 AH version brings the measurement automation technology of the 08-40 to the best selling but previously manual 10mm diameter sample PFM, the PFM08-10 MH. The 08-10 AH price is comparable to the PFM08-10 HT MH (which replaced the older PFM14 in 2023) but offering all the labour savings of the 08-40, makingContinue reading “New Automated sample Handling (AH) version of PFM08-10 added to the Generation 8 PFM range”
