5.0 Operation

Before operating any components, follow the safety
information in the ETS-Lindgren Product Information
Bulletin
included with your shipment.

If high driving current is required at a high frequency,
take precautions to avoid shock or burn from the high
voltages developed across the reactive elements.

Helmholtz Coil Placement

Place the Helmholtz coil in a space relatively free of metal objects and structures.
This will insure a minimum of distortion and the best possible homogeneity of
magnetic fields within the test volume.

Push the coil assemblies into position by holding the coil section of
each assembly. Do not push the coil assemblies using the
thermoplastic support rods.

Helmholtz Coil EUT Table

For units equipped with an adjustable table, the table should be set at the desired
height before placing the test item on it. To adjust the table height, first loosen
the clamp screw(s) and then move the table height up or down to the desired
level. Hand-tighten the clamp screw(s). The table can be lifted off of the platform
to accommodate larger EUTs. Simply remove the plastic support screws on the
floor of the coil platform that attach the table and gently lift and remove the table.

The marks on the support column are spaced 2.54 cm(1 inch) apart
for reference. A mechanical stop limits the table travel within its lowest
and highest position.

The top of the table is within 2.54 cm (1 inch) of the coil system axis
when the lowermost inch mark is at the top of the base column.
