Electromagnetic Field Monitoring

About Electromagnetic Field Monitoring

ES Canada offers electromagnetic field meters, probes, personal monitors and fixed monitoring systems for professional field measurement. The range includes Wavecontrol equipment for electric and magnetic field investigations, RF surveys and continuous monitoring.

Frequency coverage, measured field component and operating mode vary by instrument and probe. Low-frequency magnetic field measurements and high-frequency RF surveys require different measurement configurations; a single sensor should not be assumed to cover every application.

Electromagnetic field monitoring equipment

  • Portable field meters: measurement platforms with compatible probes for defined electric or magnetic field surveys.
  • Field probes: isotropic electric and magnetic probes with model-specific frequency and measurement ranges.
  • Personal monitors: portable equipment for selected RF or low-frequency monitoring tasks.
  • Fixed monitoring systems: continuous field monitoring and connected configurations for suitable indoor or outdoor installations.
  • Field mapping: equipment for electromagnetic field mapping applications.

Broadband, selective or continuous monitoring?

Broadband equipment measures across its supported band, while selective measurement configurations provide frequency-related information according to their capabilities. Continuous systems collect measurements over time at a defined location. Choose the measurement approach according to the sources being investigated and the information required from the survey.

Typical applications

  • Telecommunication and RF site surveys
  • Electric and magnetic field investigations around equipment
  • Workplace field measurement campaigns
  • Laboratory and continuous environmental monitoring

How to select the right equipment

Identify the source frequencies, electric or magnetic component and expected field levels. Compare probe compatibility, measurement range, sampling and recording options, calibration requirements and installation conditions. Verify the suitability of the exact instrument configuration for the measurement procedure; category membership does not establish compliance with a particular standard.

ES Canada helps technical teams select compatible field measurement equipment for their survey and monitoring requirements.
