Features

• Displays field strength up to 199.999 micro teslas 
• A relative zero mode subtracts the background field from all subsequent readings so there is only a 1- 2- or 3- digit number to watch.
• Backlit display can be turned on.
• Lightweight with long battery life (see specifications below).
• This is a vector magnetometer so the direction of the field (as well as strength) can be determined (but see full description; this feature requires a longer time per measurement).

Applications

• Determines both the location and depth of a buried target of magnetic material.
• Measures the presence (and amount) of certain minerals such as black sand (associated with gold deposits)
• Measures inside DC Solenoids (probe is bent into “L” shape to measure this).
• Can in some cases locate voids or caverns in a given stratum if at least a trace of magnetic mineral is normally present.
