G-856 Magnetometer

The G-856 provides a reliable, low cost solution for a variety of magnetic search and mapping applications. The G-856 uses the well proven proton precession technology, allowing accurate measurements to be made with virtually no dependence upon variables such as sensor orientation, temperature, or location. The unit provides a repeatable absolute total field magnetic reading, traceable to the National Bureau of Standards.

The principle application for the G-856 is as a base station system for monitoring and recording of the Earth's diurnal magnetic field variation. The G-856AX is also used in mapping geological structures, for mineral exploration, magnetic search for industrial, environmental or archaeological targets. The optional gradiometer attachment gives greater resolution and noise immunity for conducting searches in industrial or high cultural noise environments.
