PPD E-FIELD SENSORS

The PPD E-field Sensor (Parallel Plate Dipole, Model 1, 2 and 3) is used to measure the strength of E-fields. While Models 1 and 3 are placed on the ground plane and measure the E-fields normal to the ground plane, Model 2 is used to measure fields above a ground plane or in free space.
The sensor is housed in a fiberglass radome that provides protection and can contain gas, such as SF6, which is used to enhance the voltage standoff capability.
Model 2 is available with a radial output only while Models 1 and 3 are configured for both axial and radial applications. The sensor is a passive device and does not require a source of power.
