The Mag-Probe® is an intrinsically safe, non-contact instrument that tests AC or DC relay and solenoid operation. Sensitive enough to detect magnetic fields generated by tiny "ice cube" relays. Standard and high-sensitivity models are available.
Key Features
- Allows troubleshooting without schematics or special training
- Eliminates time-consuming and cumbersome hookups
- No calibration required
- Works effectively from -80° to +160° F
- Requires no direct electrical connection
- Suitable for high-risk explosive environments
- Waterproof, not affected by corrosion or salt spray
- Ability to check solenoid valves and relays while equipment is operating
- Isolates problems as electrical or mechanical in seconds, without a schematic
- Detects transient pulses and momentary loss of power as low as 10 milliseconds
- Detects residual magnetism – great for checking relays before installing on aircraft
- Long life power source and low current LED lasts for at least 5000 5-second operations
- Variable sensitivity - detect 1 gauss using ring magnet, 3 gauss without using ring magnet
- Reduce sensitivity by sliding on the white protective shield – reduce detection of overlapping magnetic fields
- Magnetic sensing instrument used to troubleshoot AC and DC powered solenoids, solenoid valves, relays, and heat controllers
