The FL8040 from AR RF/Microwave Instrumentation is an Electric Field Probe Kit that can be used from 20 MHz to 40 GHz. It has been specifically designed for EMC radiated immunity testing in the automotive, wireless, military, and aviation industry.

The probe kit has a separable-axis field probe, capable of measuring CW, AM, and Pulsed signals. The field probe is laser-powered (over-fiber), allowing continuous operation without recharging or replacing batteries. Additionally, this provides excellent RF isolation for the control system. It has a dynamic range of more than 54 dB with a resolution of less than 0.1 dB and a field strength range from 2 to 1000 V/m.

The field probe kit contains everything needed to operate its associated Field Probe. Remote control and laser power for the Field Probe is provided by the laser probe Interface. A 20-meter fiber-optic extension cable and fiber-optic mating adapter are also provided with the kit. It has IEEE-488 (GPIB), Ethernet, USB 2.0, RS-232, and fiber-optic serial PC interfaces.

An ortho-angle mount and adapter foot are provided for ease of mounting in common orientations. When rotated about its ortho-angle mount, the probes provide an excellent isotropic response. The FL8040 is available in a chassis that measures 278 x 65 x 65 mm and requires an AC supply from 90 to 260 V at 50-60 Hz.

The export classification for this equipment is EAR99. This equipment is controlled for export in accordance with the U.S. Export Administration Regulations.
