Radiation monitor stores both E and H
field values
The RadMan XT personal RF radiation monitor measures both electric (E) and magnetic (H) fields and stores the readings for subsequent downloading and analysis on a PC.
The RadMan XT personal RF radiation monitor measures both electric (E) and magnetic (H) fields and stores the readings for subsequent downloading and analysis on a PC Manufactured by Narda Safety Test Solutions, the monitor covers a wide frequency range of 1MHz to 40GHz and its capability for simultaneously measuring E and H fields makes it particularly suitable for use in the complex near-field conditions found close to antennas

Featuring a shaped frequency response to match the exposure thresholds laid down in the ICNIRP international standard, the RadMan XT provides warnings via four LEDs and an audible alarm, which sounds at 2Hz when the level reaches 50% of the threshold value and at 4Hz when it reaches 100%.
The monitor's data logging function allows it to record more than 1600 data points - each one including the date and time, as well as the maximum, minimum and average values for both the E and H fields.
Logging intervals are user-selectable, and the data can be retrieved at any time using an optional interface kit.
Powered by a two AAA alkaline batteries, the RadMan XT measures 26.0 x 36.4 x 163.0mm, weighs only 130g and has an operating temperature range of -10 to +55C.
The unit is supplied complete with earphone, operating manual, soft case and batteries.
In addition to the interface kit, other optional accessories include an extension rod, a hard plastic case and a tripod.
