More Coming Soon. This is the Mag-Probe technical page. Next week I'll be discussing many of the applications in detail. Increasing production rates and decreasing equipment down time is the name of the game. I'll be passing along the trouble shooting tips I've learned over the years.
Thanks and Good Trouble Shooting, Bob
This tip comes from Mike Wadle of Odessa, Tx. He uses the Mag-Probe to troubleshoot TV, FM and transmitter control circuits used in TV and FM stations. He repairs studio automation systems that use computers to control relays. Usually it's a one man operation so he connects his laptop computer to a main frame computer and sends a signal to the relay under test. His laptop computer is connected to the main frame via blue tooth or hard wired. Thanks for the tip Mike.
If you troubleshoot equipment in a clean room inside a manufacturing area or hospital sterile environment then a Mag-Probe is a perfect match. It's water proof and explosion proof. Just dip it in a cup of 70% alcohol, let it dry, then enter the area and begin troubleshooting.
If you're testing electrically operated solenoid valves or relays on military or commerical aircraft, try a Mag-probe. You won't need a schmetic or a voltmeter. Find out if current is flowing in the coil in one second. Since it weighs 3 ounces, you can carry it in your shirt pocket or jacket pocket. It operates in temperatures from -50F to +150F and is water proof. It uses a lithium battery. No lead, no silver or cromium. It meets all requirements for use aboard ships and subs. I sure could have used one when I serviced aircraft in the Air Force.
To space shuttle Astronauts at NASA. I'm offering you 4 Model HS Mag-probes ,free of charge, for use on your next flight. See mag-probe.com for the specifications. It's non-contact,waterproof and explosion proof. It operates at temperatures of -40F,but the actual tests were conducted at -80F, to+160F. Four units were tested in a vacuum chamber at 1x10-5 torr. All worked. As we know, a computer sends a DC or AC signal to a electrically operated solenoid valve. The computer indicates that the signal has been transmitted. The voltage is applied in parallel,but It's not known if current is flowing through the solenoid valves coil. The Mag-probe is a back up instrument. Since it's non-contact, it won't load the computer. It's completely isolated from all on board systems. It passes ETO sterlization and weighs only 3 ounces. If you're interested, send an E-mail to bartol_research@msn.com. This would give you absolute verification of a solenoid valves electrical state. It's powered by a lithium battery(no lead). Good Luck on your flight
Sincerely, Bob Bartol Jr., Mag-probe inventor
