Lightweight 3-axis fluxgate sensor designed for UAV and airborne magnetic survey, offering low noise, wide bandwidth options, and waterproof packaging.
Typical Applications
• UAV / airborne magnetic survey and aeromagnetic mapping
• Geological exploration and field magnetic measurement on moving platforms
• Environmental magnetic field monitoring in outdoor conditions
• Mobile magnetic measurement where low noise and lightweight sensor are required
Is HSF-600 suitable for your application?
• Best for UAV and airborne magnetic survey where weight and size are critical
• Suitable for low-field measurement within the Earth magnetic field range (e.g., ±70 / ±100 μT options)
• Choose the “Low noise” version when detecting weak anomalies is important
• Choose DC–1 kHz or DC–3 kHz bandwidth when higher-frequency magnetic variations are of interest
• Not intended as a complete magnetometer system (this page is sensor only); DAQ / GPS / recording modules are available separately
Quick Selection Guide
1) Noise version
• Low noise: ≤ 6 pT/√Hz @ 1 Hz — best for weak anomaly detection
• Standard: ≤ 10 pT/√Hz @ 1 Hz — balanced performance
• Normal: ≤ 20 pT/√Hz @ 1 Hz — cost-effective option
2) Bandwidth option
• DC–100 Hz — typical low-frequency survey work
• DC–1 kHz / DC–3 kHz — when your application requires higher bandwidth
3) Range & sensitivity (examples)
• ±70 μT (high sensitivity) / ±100 μT (general) / ±250 μT (higher range)
*Note: noise increases when the measurement range increases.
UAV Survey Note
For mineral exploration surveys, typical flight height is 20–30 m AGL with ~50 m line spacing.
Data processing tools such as Oasis montaj are commonly used, and noise filtering should be considered during processing.
