VHF/UHF Digital RF WATT/VSWR Meter
PMR 3030
The PMR 3030 EXT Power Meter is a very versatile instrument covering communication bands from 30-1000 MHz. (The PMR 3030 is available for 30-500 MHz only. The PMR Power Meter is capable of measuring forward and reflected power in the range of a few milliwatts up to 500 Watts. The internal operating system controls measurement, display and the I/Os allowing serial communication to PC, USB to memory stick and USB Serial communication. The I/O options are used to write plots to either memory sticks or to a connected PC, the I/Os can also be used to operate the instrument, giving commands and receiving data. For documentation reference the instrument has a real time clock. Multilayer menus are used to setup and control the operation of parameters.

RF Safety One Stop
Radio frequency energy pervades every corner of our environment. Silent and invisible, RF energy can pose direct health safety hazards to workers and the public, as well instigating fires, explosions and technical malfunctions. Employers, property owners and generators of RF energy, many naïve to RF, are all held liable for preventing impermissible exposures, injuries and losses by the FCC, OSHA and the courts.

RF Safety Monitoring
FieldSENSE 60
The fieldSENSE 60 personal RF monitor has a proven track record of durability that works as hard as you do. fieldSENSE 60 is specifically designed with the RF climber in mind. Whether working in the nearfield of a broadcast system or in the far-field of a 5G system, exposure is correctly assessed and a warning is sounded, should the levels approach and exceed the OET65 and Safety Code 6 occupational limits. To ensure the device cannot be dropped off site, connect he device can be attached the included special harness-attachment mechanism. In the event of a warning while the monitor has fallen the buzzer is still within hearing range.
