At Electrónica Embajadores, we offer a wide range of professional field meters and detectors designed to accurately measure and analyse electric and electromagnetic fields in industrial, electrical, and technical environments. Our equipment is renowned for its reliability, precision, and ease of use, providing technicians and professionals with the essential data needed to ensure safety and proper operation of installations.
What are Field Meters and Detectors and What Are Their Uses?
Field meters and detectors are instruments used to measure and detect the presence and intensity of electric, magnetic, or electromagnetic fields generated within electrical installations, industrial equipment, telecommunications networks, and other electrical systems. These instruments are essential for:
- Evaluating the intensity of electric fields in industrial or commercial facilities.
- Detecting electromagnetic interference that may affect sensitive electronic devices.
- Ensuring compliance with legal standards and exposure limits to electromagnetic fields.
- Conducting preventive and corrective maintenance to prevent faults and damage to electrical systems.
The Importance of Measuring and Detecting Electric and Electromagnetic Fields
Accurate measurement and detection of fields are vital to protect people and maintain the integrity of electrical and electronic equipment. Electric and electromagnetic fields, while common in many systems, can cause:
- Interference in communications and electronic devices.
- Risks of electric shock or excessive exposure in work environments.
- Damage to machinery and installations due to electromagnetic effects.
Having a reliable field meter or detector is therefore a necessity for any technician or company working with electrical installations, industrial maintenance, telecommunications, or related sectors.
Types of Field Meters and Detectors Available at Electrónica Embajadores
Our catalogue features a selection of equipment suited to various needs, ranging from basic instruments to professional-grade devices with advanced functionalities:
Electric Field Meters
