What is a Gauss meter?

A gauss meter is a measuring device used to measure magnetic force. Magnetic force is generally defined by the magnetic flux density, which indicates the amount of magnetic flux per unit area at a given location. Depending on the location to be measured and the type of measurement target, the shape and size are appropriately selected from the flat plate type probe and the cylindrical type probe for measurement. It is widely used for measurement of environmental magnetic force, measurement of magnetic force of permanent magnets and discrimination of poles, measurement of geomagnetic force in nature, property inspection of magnetic materials, scientific research, etc. Tesla meter is a measuring device that operates on the same principle.

Application of Gauss meter

It is generally used for the following purposes. Measurement of environmental magnetic force Magnetic force measurement of permanent magnets and N / S pole discrimination Measurement of geomagnetism in nature Characteristics inspection of magnetic materials Other scientific research related to magnetic materials and magnetic forces Select and use the probe appropriately according to the measurement environment. There are mainly two types of measurement probes, flat plate type and cylindrical type, and the flat plate type probe is suitable for measurement in narrow gaps and measurement of linear magnetic fields. On the other hand, the cylindrical probe is suitable for measuring the magnetic force of a small coil.
