LEMI-035 autonomous flux-gate magnetometer for 3-component measurement of Earth's magnetic field and its variations at laboratory as well as in geomagnetic observatory is produced on the base of flux-gate sensor, all three components of which are implemented in the same body. It consists of two units - sensor unit with adjustable support and electronic unit both connected by long cable. The electronics is implemented as “black box” unit with digital and analog output which may be connected to any analog registration unit. Low power consumption of the magnetometer requires small buffer battery what is convenient for long-term autonomous measurements in field conditions, where power breaks often occur.
