About

The BHC2000 consists of 2000mm Ferronato® Helmholtz Coils, designed for precise magnetic field control. These coils are primarily used in the calibration of magnetic field sensors, including those for satellites and sub-assemblies. They are also ideal for conducting tests or experiments that necessitate a known magnetic environment. The BHC2000-A model features bifilar windings, which create two identical circuits within each coil. Independent connecting terminals are included to allow for various winding configurations, offering flexibility in experimental setups. Key features include the option of 1, 2, or 3 axes, and available accessories such as a Device Under Test (DUT) accessory and an Elevated Flooring accessory. Additionally, the system can be enhanced with active compensation using the CU2.
