Isotropic Broadband Electric Field Probe PI-01LF:
10 KHz-3 GHz, 0.3-600 V/m
Boradband probe PI-01LF, meets the requirements of various EMC and RF safety standards. It allows measurements of RF fields produced by most of the broadcast, telecommunication and industrial sources. This probe eliminates the need for two probes to cover the required frequency range 10 KHz- 3 GHz, thus making measurements simpler and faster.

Calibration Details:
Keep unit calibrated. We recommend calibration once a year in our UK NPL traceable EMC Test Lab.
All calibration tests are perormed in EMC Test Design, LLC test lab and are based on transferable field measuring probes and antennas traceable to United Kingdom National Physical Laboratory (UK NPL).
Probe PI-01LF
1) Meter/Probe Linearity 0.2-600 V/m @100 MHz/72.5 MHz,
2) Probe Frequency Correction Factors at 12 specified frequencies in the frequency range 10 KHz-3 GHz.
3) Probe Rotational isotropicity at 100 MHz & 1900 MHz (@10 V/m).
– To convert the electric field strength E (V/m) into power density S (uW/cm2) use formula: S=E2/3.77. To calculate the value of the magnetic field H (far field region) use the relationship: E/H=377 Ohm.
