VOLTCRAFT MS-410 Magnetic Field Tester (VC-10906910)

Magnetic fields are invisible, yet they can disrupt sensitive equipment, damage magnetic media, or indicate faulty electrical installations. The VOLTCRAFT MS-410 Magnetic Field Tester gives you a fast, reliable way to measure DC and AC magnetic flux density in millitesla or gauss, so you can identify problem areas before they cause failures.

Who is it for

This handheld meter is ideal for electricians, maintenance technicians, quality inspectors, and anyone working with electromagnets, permanent magnets, motors, transformers, or magnetic shielding. It is also useful for checking residual magnetism in machined parts or verifying compliance with EMC guidelines.

Tips

For best results, hold the meter steady and align the sensor perpendicular to the field being measured. Use the zero adjustment before each session to compensate for ambient magnetic fields. When measuring AC fields, ensure the frequency is within the specified range to maintain accuracy.
