    Innovation in Magnetic Measuring Instruments

    Mag-01H Fluxgate Declinometer/Inclinometer

    Mag-01H Fluxgate Declinometer/Inclinometer


    The Mag-01H Declinometer/Inclinometer (D/I) system comprises a single axis fluxgate
    magnetometer (type Mag-01H), a fluxgate probe (type Mag A), and a WILD T1 steel-free
    theodolite. A steel-free tripod is available if required. The WILD T1 micrometer theodolite
    has a resolution of 6 seconds (this can be estimated to 3 seconds). A manual for the WILD
    T1 theodolite is available on request.
    Each pre-used WILD T1 theodolite is meticulously converted to be steel-free and restored
    as far as possible to its original condition. After conversion, each theodolite is rigorously
    checked for magnetic hygiene and is guaranteed to be non-magnetic. The initial set-up
    procedure includes checking the magnetic cleanliness of the theodolite at each stage of
    assembly. The optical/magnetic collimation error is set to less than 20 seconds.
    On request, the Mag-01H D/I can be checked against a reference system at a magnetic
    observatory for an additional charge.
    The Mag-01H and Mag Probe A can be mounted on the customers theodolite. We can provide a mounting adaptor for the WILD T1, Zeiss
    (010, 015 and 020 A or B) and Yom theodolites. Under these conditions, we cannot guarantee the magnetic cleanliness of the theodolite or
    the results produced by the instrument.
    A training video for users of the system is available on the Bartington Instruments website.

    Measurements of declination and inclination


    This system provides fast, accurate and convenient measurements of the declination
    and inclination of the geomagnetic field.
    The geomagnetic field varies with time, both in intensity and direction. These
    parameters are monitored continuously by magnetic observatories. The baselines of
    instruments that perform continuous recording are checked for drift and corrected
    through absolute measurements by instruments including a D/I system.
    The system can also be used to check compass calibration.
    The Mag-01H D/I system is useful in gas exploration when directional drilling is
    involved. This technique uses magnetometers to monitor the direction of the drilling
    head. Precise measurements of declination and inclination are required to avoid errors
    caused by local variations in the field, mostly owing to the local geology. These can be
    obtained by performing a survey using the Mag-01H D/I system.
    (Measurement resolution is limited by the prevailing geomagnetic conditions, the skill of the operator and the mechanical stability of
    the tripod, if used.)

    Mag-01H Single Axis Fluxgate Magnetometer


    This battery powered instrument provides the drive for the probe and processes its
    output to show the field strength on a 4-digit display, updated at 2 readings per second.
    An analogue output is also provided.
    The Mag-01H may be fitted with an audio output indicator, on request. This facility
    enables the operator to seek the null position without continuously monitoring the
    digital display. A sensitivity switch can be used to select 1nT or 0.1nT resolution.
    The non-magnetic internal battery provides 20 hours of continuous use and can be
    recharged via the mains adaptor or vehicle connector. Battery voltage is displayed for
    several seconds after switch-on and an audible alarm indicates when recharging is
    required. The magnetometer and cable incorporate shielding against radio frequency
    interference.

    Mag A Probe
    The Mag A probe contains a fluxgate element selected for high rejection of orthogonal
    fields. The element is extremely high quality, very stable and well aligned with little
    offset. The probe alignment will normally be stable to 1 minute of arc over the
    suggested two-year calibration period. Re-adjustment is seldom required.
    The fluxgate element converts the static terrestrial field into an alternating signal. The
    Mag-01H instrument converts this signal into a feedback current, which is applied to a
    precision solenoid within the probe to maintain the element in null field.
    The magnetometer converts this current into a precise and stable measurement
    of the field. A mechanically isolated enclosure protects the sensor from accidental
    misalignment. The probe has a strong but highly flexible 5-metre cable for connection
    to the Mag-01H instrument.
    Each probe is individually calibrated to a standard traceable to the UK National Physical
    Laboratory.
    Probes and electronics units are fully interchangeable, with a cumulative calibration
    uncertainty of 0.25%.

    WILD T1 Steel-free theodolite


    These optical theodolites are no longer manufactured, so the units supplied are preused instruments which have been reconditioned and converted to be non-magnetic.
    All magnetic components have been replaced by a non-magnetic equivalent. The
    horizontal and vertical axis bearings have been replaced with specially plated phosphor
    bronze parts, and the steel ball-race removed from the horizontal axis. The WILD axis
    lubrication system ensures that these parts require zero maintenance.
    The resetting mechanism for the horizontal circle is redundant in this application and
    has been eliminated to give enhanced accuracy. All theodolites undergo a rigorous
    check for magnetic hygiene and are guaranteed to be non-magnetic.
    The steep sighting prisms (SSP) improve the reading of the scale in the case of a near
    horizontal field. Without them, fields inclined less than 45 from the horizontal cannot
    be measured. The limit, using the SSP, becomes 18 (25 using the telescope SSP).
