RS PRO Microwave Emission Detector, 20/200/2000 mG, 50 MHz→3.5GHz

RS PRO RS-194 Microwave Leakage Detector Introducing the RS PRO RS-194 Microwave Emissions Detector, designed to monitor and detect potentially harmful electromagnetic leakage from microwaves in a household or industry environment. This ergonomically shaped device is simple to use, with an intuitive user interface that can detect even low levels of radiation to ensure complete peace of mind and confidence in the results given by the detector. The emissions detector is equipped with an audible alarm when radiation levels occur above the safe level, which means that this detection device is an essential test and measurement instrument, integral to workplace and home safety. Features and Benefits: The RS PRO microwave leakage detector is an essential safety device for leakage detection and measuring EMF (electromagnetic field) radiation intensity from microwave ovens, welding equipment, and much more An audible alarm triggers above the safe level of radiation leakage, along with a high microwave sensitivity so it can detect even low levels of radiation with confidence and accuracy, ensuring reliable measurement results This microwave leakage detector from RS PRO offers an ergonomic and intuitive user design with a large, easy to read LCD display with bar graph visualisation Powered by a 9V battery that offers an operating time of approx. 100 hours and has an auto power-off function after being left idle for 30 mins, allowing better battery life management Measuring range 0.01 to 2.7 mW/cm2 Supplied with user manual, 1 x 9 V battery and carrying case Applications: Microwave emission detectors are devices that are used to detect possible electromagnetic contaminations in a work or domestic environment. An emission detector is an incredibly useful device as often leaks are left undetected until it is too late and there is a high amount of radiation that is emitted. Regular checks are part of good preventative maintenance for microwaves and other items that produce electromagnetic fields such as mobile phones and cameras. Electromagnetic leakage can cause excessive exposure which poses a range of health risks, especially to expectant mothers. Microwave oven detection or EMF is usually completed as part of PAT testing and electrical safety inspections and is often done in: Home environments Industrial and manufacturing Restaurants School kitchens Factories Shops Welding and fabrication Is microwave leakage dangerous? Long term exposure to electromagnetic radiation could cause damage to an individual’s health, so it is important to ensure any device that creates electromagnetic fields is maintained and checked regularly. How do you check for microwave leakage? Microwave leakage is checked by using an emission or leakage detector like this RS PRO device. It can accurately pinpoint when the electromagnetic exposure is above a safe level, which can often indicate a leak or malfunction for the microwave or device being tested. What should I do if my microwave is leaking? If your microwave is leaking, it is advisable to replace the whole microwave unit with a new one. Microwaves have a life expectancy of around 9-10 years, less if not maintained and checked regularly. Why RS PRO?
