OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
PROBE
Take out the probe alongwith the cable through the cutting provided on the rear side.
The probe is encapsulated in a non-magnetic sheath. It is connected to the instrument by
means of a four-core cable of suitable length and is normally kept inside the instrument. A transport
cap is provided for protection of probe. It is advisable that the probe should not be used at
temperature higher than 50 C. The probe is very delicate and hence it is advised that its cap is
inserted whenever the probe is not in use and kept inside the instrument alongwith the cable. Any
kind of strain on the probe element is to be avoided.
ZERO ADJUSTMENT
Switch on the instrument. The readings is adjusted to zero with 'ZERO' control with the probe
away from any magnetic field. The zero adjustment should be checked on X1 range.
MEASUREMENT
The range switch is now set to the appropriate range. The probe cap is removed and the probe
is kept in the magnetic field to be measured. The flat face of the probe is kept perpendicular to the
direction of the magnetic field. The reading of the meter multiplied by the range value gives the flux
density of the magnetic field in gauss. If the field strength is not known it is advisable to start with
X10 range.
DIRECTION OF MAGNETIC FIELD
If the magnetic field indicated by the gaussmeter is positive (without sign), the pole facing the
side of the Hall Probe marked 'N' is 'North Pole'.
SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
Normally the resistance between the Red & Black wires (Current input terminals) of the
probe is about 1035 50 ohms and that between Yellow & Blue wires (Hall Voltage terminal) is 625
50 ohms. If any of these resistances is very high or short probe is taken to be defective.
After replacing the new Hall Probe it may be calibrated by adjusting the Hall Probe current to
the value given for the new probe with the help of a preset (1K) provided for it in the circuit.
Alternately it may be recalibrated with a standard magnet or gaussmeter.
