Continuous operation
The nominal coil current is 8 A continuous. The specified nominal magnetic field is 325 A/m @ coil Dist. = 1.8 m. Field values apply at the stated reference spacing.
Precisely defined magnetic fields. DC - 5 kHz.
The Schwarzbeck HHS 5230-100 uses 3 m square coils for magnetic immunity testing of whole vehicles. Designed for DC to 5 kHz, it supports applications described in SAE J551-17.
Magnetic field strength is proportional to coil current. Coil geometry, the number of turns and the applied current determine the resulting field, allowing the field measurement to be traced to a current measurement or the voltage drop across a known resistor.
The field depends on coil spacing and the position within the test volume. Use the reference spacings in the specifications and the field distribution data in the datasheet when selecting your setup.
The nominal coil current is 8 A continuous. The specified nominal magnetic field is 325 A/m @ coil Dist. = 1.8 m. Field values apply at the stated reference spacing.
The maximum coil current is 16 A (5 min.). Observe the stated time limit and provide adequate ventilation. The frequency range alone does not imply that maximum current or field is available at every frequency.

Where specified, coil distances refer to the coil centers. Continuous and short-duration limits are listed separately. Standards references retain the designations used in the source documents.
Read the supplied datasheet before use. Switch off the complete system before making or removing connections and do not touch terminals during operation. Observe all voltage, current and time limits. High currents heat the coils; maintain adequate air circulation. Keep unintended magnetic field sources and magnetic materials away from the test volume.
