AGEM 5521-23 - Electromagnet, DC - ~1MHz, 23 Turn

Electromagnet

Strong magnetic fields in a precisely defined test gap.

Generate magnetic fields from DC to approximately 1 MHz for experimental applications. The AGEM 5521-23 combines a 23-turn coil, a split toroidal ferromagnetic core and a built-in monitor loop in a compact aluminum housing.

Product overview

A small test area with a clear reference position

Front working gap

Insert the specimen through the 7 mm front slot. The homogeneous region is 7 mm wide, 7 mm deep and 30 mm high; its center is 17 mm behind the front-panel surface. The top slot provides a view of the specimen position.

Rear monitor gap

A monitor coil occupies the second 7 mm gap. Its BNC output provides a field-dependent voltage for checking the flux density in the core and working area.

Position limiter

A stop at the bottom of the working area supports the specimen. It can be removed by taking off the upper housing and undoing the retaining screw, as shown in the datasheet.

Application details

Drive and monitor the field

Lower-frequency operation

Connect a suitable generator and amplifier to the 4 mm coil terminals. The manufacturer recommends an audio amplifier at lower frequencies and requires a series protection resistor to prevent the amplifier from driving a short circuit.

Higher-frequency operation

An optional NFCN 9732-x nF compensation network reduces series impedance at a selected operating frequency. The AGEM example connects the amplifier through a protective SHUNT 9571 resistor to the network, then connects the “to coil” output directly to the electromagnet.

50 Ω monitoring

Use a measurement input terminated in 50 Ω. A high-impedance oscilloscope needs a BNC T-piece and parallel 50 Ω termination. At 100 kHz, 1000 A/m corresponds to 46.1 mV RMS, or approximately 130 mV peak-to-peak.
