Description

Magnetometer provides a reliable, low cost solution for a variety of magnetic search and mapping applications. It can be operated by non-technical field personnel or used in teaching environments. Proton magnetometer uses the well-established proton precession method, allowing accurate measurements to be made with virtually no dependence upon variables such as sensor orientation, temperature, or location. The unit provides a repeatable absolute total field magnetic reading, traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The unit offers new features such as GPS time synchronization, GPS positions and in-field navigation.

Applications

Proton magnetometer is ideal for mapping geological structures, for mineral exploration, or magnetic search for industrial, environmental or archaeological targets. Simple operation, large digital data storage capability, and the inclusion of data transfer and editing software provides a system well suited for both teaching and survey applications.

Superior Data Editing Software

It allows rapid download of the data from the Proton magnetometer to a PC. Data can be diurnally corrected, profile lines and X, Y or GPS positions displayed and edited, noisy readings filtered and QC plots of profiles, 2D contour plots made. Data can be exported for more sophisticated final maps and analysis including Google Earth overlay maps. The software requires Windows XP, 7, 8 or 8.1 operating system.

Proton magnetometer provides excellent performance and is the lowest priced professional magnetometer system available. With simple operation, user friendly download/editing software, and format read for available commercial contouring programs, it represents a complete magnetic surveying package generating high quality data for budget conscious users.
