Where there is electricity, there is an electromagnetic field (EMF). Electromagnetic fields are used in radio broadcasting, TV broadcasting, and wireless communications. Basic restrictions have been recommended by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) based on medical studies surrounding the health effects of electromagnetic waves. These basic restrictions take into account environmental conditions and uncertainties surrounding personal sensitivity.
RF safety equipment is necessary to monitor RF exposure and ensure safe limits are not exceeded. There are four main types of RF safety equipment: Personal RF monitors, RF survey meters, Field analyzers, and area monitors. Personal RF monitors are worn on the body and send an alarm when radiation limits are exceeded. RF survey meters are used to measure field strength with probes and antennas. Field analyzers are stationary units that can perform measurements from close or far distances. Area monitors are stationary units that are meant to continuously monitor levels in the long-term.
It is essential to check exposure levels to ensure they meet the regulatory limits to protect the health of the public and the workers that work in close proximity to high-frequency emitters.
Avalon carries all types of RF safety equipment so you can choose what you need based on your specific requirements. Rent or purchase from Avalon Test Equipment and Test With Confidence®.
The Narda Fieldman is a smart solution for EMF measurements, capable of handling frequencies up to 90 GHz. It features a wide measurement range from 0 Hz (DC) to 90 GHz. The device uses a digital probe interface, meaning only the probe needs calibration, not the measuring device itself. Its anti-glare, brilliant colour display with automatic brightness adjustment ensures readability even in poor lighting conditions or intense sunlight. Additionally, the Fieldman includes sensors that measure temperature, air humidity, pressure, and height above ground. It also supports rapid data transmission through various interfaces, making it highly efficient for data handling.

Affordable RF Exposimeter RadMan 2LT and RadMan 2XT Radiation Monitors are warning devices for the protection of people who work in areas where increased levels of electromagnetic radiation are present. Electromagnetic Energy/Electromagnetic Fields (EME/EMF). Broadcasting, telecommunications and radar antennas are sources of strong electromagnetic fields. The device is worn on the body and warns its user in good time before the permitted limit values are exceeded.
Nardalert S3 is a compact personal radiation monitor for use in electrical fields up to 100 GHz with an ELF immunity of up to 100 kV/m (e.g. antenna systems near high-voltage lines). The interchangeable sensor modules for the different personal protection standards and the individually adjustable threshold values for the warning make the device extremely flexible.
Narda-STS SRM-3006 is a second generation, hand-held system for performing narrowband analysis of electromagnetic fields. It has the ability to give results of individual emitters and also generate a total of all emitters.
Narda-STS NBM-520 is the most accurate non-ionizing radiation survey system available. It provides broad frequency coverage of electric and magnetic fields.
The Narda Industrial Meter NIM is a complete measuring system with combined E and H field probe for simultaneous measurement of electric and magnetic fields on equipment operating at ISM frequencies. NIM-511, calibrated at the 13.56 MHz ISM frequency, covers a wide frequency range of industrial equipment. The device was specially developed for measurements on industrial equipment e.g. for high frequency welding, glass coating, semiconductor production, RF induction ovens, plasma generators or dielectric heating and drying systems.
A smart EMF monitoring solution that is not only compact but also extremely flexible: the SMARTS AMC (Area Monitoring Compact). An innovation from Narda that permanently and precisely measures RF radiation in the range up to 60 GHz. This allows both potentially hazardous areas to be monitored and compliance with industry standards and personal protection limits to be checked. The SMARTS AMC can be easily integrated into your existing systems and especially into your local networks. Thanks to the different mounting options, it can also be easily adapted to your requirements and, with the help of the interchangeable probes, precisely tailored to your needs.
The selective AMS-8063 monitors high-frequency fields from 9 kHz to 30 MHz. Due to its unique characteristics, the AMS-8063 is particularly suitable for monitoring antenna systems in the vicinity of LW, MW and SW transmissions.
EFC-400 simulation software - Calculation of low-frequency electromagnetic fields The EFC-400 software has been established for many years as a quasi-industry standard for the calculation and simulation of electric and magnetic fields. The program can be used to calculate the corresponding electromagnetic fields using an almost unlimited number of network elements such as conductors, line sections, buildings and antennas. The software, which is used worldwide, is characterized by its user-friendliness and efficiency. For example, users can create or import all the necessary network elements themselves. The software clearly displays all elements together with the simulation result.
