HIGH-RESOLUTION   CESIUM   MAGNETOMETERS

RMS Instruments' products work with self-oscillating alkali-vapour magnetometers that output a Larmor signal (with frequency proportional to the magnetic field). Cesium-vapour magnetometers are well-established, proven, reliable, and by far the most popular in airborne applications. Two manufacturers have an established track record of high-performance and reliability: Scintrex (Ontario, Canada), and Geometrics (California, USA). The magnetometers produced by both companies (CS-3 and G-822A families, respectively) meet very similar specifications and work equally well with RMS Instruments systems.
