This EMF/RF Field Strength Meter is for monitoring high frequency radiation with 50MHz to 3.50GHz measuring range is designed to measure the electromagnetic field value of the Radio Frequency. It can do a non-directional (isotropic) measurement with three-channel measurement sensor. The non-directional electric field and high sensitivity also allow measurements of electric field in TEM cell and absorber rooms. It's highly dynamic with its three-channel digital results processing, and is calibrated precisely on 50MHz to 3.50GHz frequency value.
It has configurable alarm threshold, memory function, overload & low battery indication and an adjustable auto power off and memory recall functions. With user-friendly interface that makes it easy and safe to operate. Instantaneous value, maximum value measured or average value can also be set to show on screen.
Applications
- High frequency (RF) electromagnetic wave field strength measurement
- Mobile phone base station antenna radiation power density measurement
- Wireless communication application (CW, TDWA, GSM, DECT)
- RF power measurement for transmitters
- Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) detection and installation
- Spy camera, wireless bug finder
- Cellular/Cordless phone radiation safety level
- Bluetooth
- Microwave oven leakage
- Personal living environment EMF safety
- High dynamic range due to three-channel digital results processing
Building biologists generally measure EMF's in three different ways:
1) AC Magnetic Fields - with a Gauss Meter
2) Radio Frequencies - with a Radio Frequency (RF) Meter
3) AC Electrical Fields - measuring body voltage with a Multimeter

Once you know the sources of RF in your environment you can take action to minimize your exposure to them.
Exposure Standards for Radio Frequencies
For radio frequenices between 3KHz and 300GHz many countries including Australia have adopted standards set by the International Commission on Non-Ionising Radiation (ICNIRP) which have been endorsed by WHO. Here are the exposure guidelines set by ICNIRP and adopted by ARPANSA (Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency)
Frequency RangePublic Exposure LimitOccupational Exposure Limit
GSM
4.5 W/m2 (4.5 million μW/m2)
9 W/m2 (9 million μW/m2)
22.5 W/m2 (22.5 million μW/m2)
45 W/m2 (45 million μW/m2)
3 G Base Stations
10 W/m2 (10 million μW/m2)
4 G Base Stations
4.5 W/m2 (4.5 million μW/m2)
Please note the above standards have been heavily influenced by industry and are completely inadequate according to many experts. For more information on the dodgy processes used to set standards in industry we recommend reading “The Procrustean Approach” By Don Maisch PhD
The Australian College of Environmental Sciences www.aces.edu.au recommends the following levels of RF for living spaces.
Living AreaSleeping AreaPulsed Radio Frequency/ Microwaves< 10 μW/m2< 5 μW/m2
As you can see Building Biology Standards are millions of times lower than those set by authorities.
