The magROCK, for measuring magnetic susceptibility in rocks, cores and samples, incorporates the latest in measurement and display technology while retaining the sound physical principles that enable improved sensitivity and accuracy.

 

magROCK Features

  • Low frequency, 750 Hz, for deep penetration of rock sample and is optimal for avoiding erroneous readings caused by the simultaneous measurement of conductivity and susceptibility.
  • A unique display feature of the magROCK is the reversal of the display for ‘ease-of-reading’ when the unit is held upside down.
  • The magROCK uses two ferrite cored coils that give higher sensitivity and accuracy.  This is not possible in smaller instruments.
  • Digital and graphical display
  • Sensitivity of the magROCK is 1 x 10-5 SI Units
  • Ruggedised assembly with ergonomic designed case
  • Large memory stores 30 sets of 128 readings – total of 3,840 individual readings!
  • The magROCK can operate in static or scanning mode  
  • Data transfer by USB output (waterproof connector)
  • User friendly menu system
  • Other Features

  • Reads in both SI and CGS units
  • Four button control, easy to use in one hand
  • Scanning mode with audio to identify peak value
  • Rugged and waterproof (EP 65 case)
  • Low noise with very stable readings
  • Fast zeroing (approx. 9 seconds)
  • Long battery life

 

Accessories

The unit comes complete with a padded carrying case and data cable to communicate with a computer.

Software for downloading data to a PC is included and it runs on Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7.
