4.0 Operation
Before connecting any components, follow the
safety information in the ETS-Lindgren
Product Information Bulletin included with your
shipment.
The reception pattern of the Model 7604 Magnetic Field Pickup Coil is directional,
having a shape essentially of a dipole. Maximum pickup of alternating magnetic
field occurs when the field vector is aligned with the coil axis.
1.
Connect the Model 7604 to the input connector of an EMI meter using
a coaxial cable fitted with a BNC plug. The EMI meter may have an
input impedance that is either high (500 ohms or greater) or 50 ohms.
2.
Make the measurements of the Equipment Under Test (EUT) in
accordance with the applicable standard using the appropriate
measurement method; for example, MlL-STD-462 [2], Method RE01.
Methods of measurement may be found in [2] and [3], and further
information on the measurements and a discussion of how to make
them may be found in [5].
3.
Reduce the data to flux density by applying the conversion factor at
each frequency where an emission from the EUT is found. The
conversion factors for the Model 7604 are illustrated in the graph on
page 14; these factors are also tabulated in the table on page 16. They
are provided in decibels referenced to one picotesla
per microvolt: dB(pT/µV).
