Isotropic Broadband Electric Field Probe Probe PI-01C
500 MHz- 2 GHz, 0.5 – 600 V/m
Electric field probe PI-01C was designed for selective RF
measurements. The ability to attenuate the signals above
3 GHz and reject signals below 300 MHz makes it invaluable
tool for cell phone tower certification.

– Keep unit calibrated. We recommend calibration once a year in our UK NPL traceable EMC Test Lab.
All calibration tests are performed 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).
1) Meter/Probe Linearity 0.2-600 V/m @100 MHz/72.5 MHz,
2) Probe Frequency Correction Factors at 8-12 specified frequencies in the frequency range 500-3000 MHz,
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.
