Essentia EM2 Meter
1Hz to over 18GHz from 0.05 microWatt per centimeter square to 100 milliWatt
per centimeter square power density.
TriField 100XE 60Hz electric (but electric field sensitivity at 5V/m), magnetic fields + magnetic ELF (1-1,000Hz) + radio & microwave power (50 Hz also available)
The analog TriField is used for the measurement of:
The magnetic and electric field settings are frequency-weighted from 30 to 500Hz and are calibrated at 60Hz. For example, a 60Hz magnetic field with a strength of 2 milliGauss (mG) will read, "2" on the meter, but 120Hz at 2 mG will read "4" on the meter. This is to gauge the currents induced inside the body, which are proportional to field strength multiplied by frequency. From 500Hz to 2000Hz, the response is flat +/- 20 %. Above 2000Hz, the magnetic and electric sensitivities of the meter slowly decrease with increasing frequency, falling to zero near 100KHz, but with some residual sensitivity up to 100MHz. In theory, the body's sensitivity to fields should begin to decrease at frequencies above about 500Hz. Accuracy is +/- 20 % of scale reading for Magnetic, and +/-30 % of scale reading for Electric (RMS @ 60Hz). The Radio/Microwave probe is sensitive from 50MHz to 3GHz and is calibrated at home microwave over frequency (2GHz). The accuracy is -50% to +100% because of the unpredictable effect of reflections within the room and off the user.
The TriField 100XE registers
electrical fields as low a 5 Volts/Meter. Biological
and psychological effects and risks have been reported starting at 10 V/m
fields, a common powerfrequency electric level in
most bed pillow sites throughout North America. In countries where the voltage
is higher (220V), higher ambient electric fields are noted while in the 110V system, the power-
frequency magnetic fields tend to be more prevalent in areas used by the
general public.
TriField Natural2 (experimental) measures static (non-varying) electric, static magnetic as well as natural static microwave phenomena, with an audio function. Includes AC adapter & jack, and external coil jack
The TriField Natural2 meter is very helpful in identifying unusual natural environmental phenomena and interactions between natural and artificial electromagnetic fields. Monitors magnetic and electric field transients of living or magnetized objects. The sum setting is excellent for motion-detection and bioenergetic research. Omnidirectional. Tone signal. Analog.
TriField Broadband 100XE measures electric fields up to 2,5GHz, magnetic fields up to 100kHz.
This meter locates
surveillance "bugs", "hot" conductors and radiofrequency
interference (RFI). It upgrades the quality of detail of professional surveys
in enabling proper tracing of wiring and appliance-related problems, by
determining which wires or circuits carry current, and the detection of
improper grounding.
The TriField
meters operate with a 9V battery, and should last for about 30 hours
(with alkaline battery)

Air Shipment Oersted

High Resistance / Low Conductance 1000 TeraOhm
Meter measures 19,999 MegOhm
– 1999.9 GigOhm resistance and conductance in 19.999 nanoSiemens and 19.999 picoSiemens.
Surface DC Voltmeter measures static
charge on a surface or object; measures voltage on
conductive surfaces, electric field on insulators (some glass, paper and most
plastics); and can also measure ohms/square resistance of
anti-static surfaces (resistance on most plastics, including paints).
Ultrastable Surface DC Voltmeter measures voltage on conductive surfaces, electric field on insulators or atmospheric electricity, unaffected by air ions.
This device is helpful in not only determining static electric situations but also in identifying which steps in a process introduce or remove charges. A 1" spacer standardizes distance between the meter and object being measured. Surface voltage is measured on a LCD display in kilovolts. Accuracy is ± 2% of the reading, provided that the surface measured is at least 25cm wide (10"); otherwise, display will read lower than the actual voltage - however, formulae are provided in a manual with unit to estimate actual surface voltage. The range is -19,999 to +19,999 kilovolts, with 1 volt resolution. A reading of more than 10,000 kilovolts means that sparking is likely. Attachments include: space rod, cord to earth ground and a brass sensor disk. The meter uses a standard 9-Volt battery (which is included) and has a low battery indicator on display. Battery life is typically 3 hours of measurement time. Warranty is for 1 year.
RF Field Strength Meter radio/microwave measures the power density of radio waves from 0.5MHz to 3,000 MHz (3 GHz).
Accuracy in the cell tower range (800 - 1,700 MHz) is ± 20% of the reading. At the frequency limits of 0.5 MHz and 3,000 MHz, it reads 3dB low (-50%). There are 3 ranges that span from 0.001 to 2,000 microwatts/cm². The bandwidth switch allows a high-pass function (with a 6dB per octave roll off below 100MHz) so that the high frequencies such as cell towers are allowed through. This switch can also be set to "Wide" bandwidth, allowing all frequencies down to 0.5MHz, including AM radio. Normally, this is set on "Fast" however, to permit monitoring of changes rapidly. Controls on the side of the unit allow neutralization of the offset (which is temperature dependent and is usually only a few nanoWatts (0.001 microWatts) per cm2. The meter uses a standard 9-Volt battery (which is included) and has a low battery indicator on display. Battery life is typically 3 hours of measurement time. Warranty is for 1 year.
MicroAlert radio/microwave alarm beeper directionally detects signals
as weak as 0.001mWcm² from 100MHz to 5GHz.
This pager-sized beeper is helpful for locating cellular phone towers up to 1 km away, analog and digital phones, microwave oven use and surveillance "bug" and like devices. Battery lasts 3 years.
Electromagnetic Monitor (50 Hz - 3 GHz - with a decreased response up to 10 GHz) detects directionally full spectrum electric emissions from power-frequency appliances and wiring to wireless equipment, with a sensitivity as low as 0.01 micro Watt/square centimetre to a maximum of 10 milliWatt/square centimetre on a scale of 6 LEDs coloured from blue to red. Accuracy is ± 30% in the 50Hz to 3GHz range, includes a 9V battery, sufficient for 50 hours of continuous use.
AC Electric Field Meter (40 Hz – 100 kHz) measures accurately and faster the broadband electric field than existing meters. Large LCD display.
This device has an absolute accuracy at 40Hz to 20kHz of ± 2% of the reading, with ± 1 count (1 count being 1 volt/meter). For frequencies of up to 50kHz, accuracy is still ± 2% of the reading, but the last digit will read lower by 2 counts at 25kHz and by 4 counts at 50kHz. At 100kHz, the meter will read low by 5% and low by 9 counts. The meter uses a standard 9-Volt battery (which is included) and has a low battery indicator on display. Battery life is typically 20 hours of measurement time. Warranty is for 1 year.
