Product Overview

The HC1 system generates stable and homogeneous magnetic fields in up to three axes. It comprises 500mm diameter HC1 Helmholtz Coil, PA1 and CU1. It interfaces with a PXI control system or compatible National Instruments acquisition card for complete system control.

Two-axis versions are available with any combination of coils: X and Y, X and Z, or Y and Z.  HC1 Helmholtz Coils can also be purchased separately from the rest of the system.

Key Features

  • Orthogonality correction using PA1
  • Active compensation using CU2
  • Control software available

Applications

  • Calibration of three-axis magnetic field sensors, including for satellites and sub assemblies

  • Creation of a known magnetic environment
