FSM Field Strength Meter

The FSM Magnetic Field Strength Meter from Ampetronic is a cost effective and simple solution for measuring, setting up and commissioning an induction loop system to the requirements of IEC60118-4. The meter is an ergonomically designed hand held instrument for measuring loop system performance. There are three calibrated operational modes for the assessment of Background Noise, Field Strength and Frequency Response as required to ensure correct function of the loop system. The meter also doubles as a loop listener, with a headphone output to listen to the signal in the loop.

The meter is supplied in a soft case  and with  full operating instructions including a guide to commissioning. The Ampetronic FSM can be used to monitor, set up or commission any induction loop system regardless of the manufacturer or type.
