Overview
RF personal monitor: 100 kHz to 100 GHz
The Nardalert S3 is the only personal monitor that uses a thermocouple and low frequency displacement current sensor. This means it can cover low frequency applications like LF or MF broadcast as well as accurately monitoring pulsed systems such as radar – this is something that simple diode based monitors which can vastly over or under-estimate radar signals.
Sensor technology was improved in the Nardalert S3 by re-designing not only the sensor itself, but also by packaging it in a field replaceable cartridge that contains all the electronic data necessary to maintain calibrated operation. This feature allows your Nardalert S3 to stay in service by swapping in a replacement sensor cartridge.

Nardalert S3
Overview
Narda designed their first personal monitor nearly 40 years ago. This unparalleled expertise produced the Nardalert S3 (short for Nardalert series three) replacing all previous versions of the Nardalert including the very successful Nardalert XT.
In terms of the sensor technology it employs the Nardalert S3 remains as the most advanced personal monitor on the market. The low frequency sensor enables use in low frequency fields where simple diode based monitors will give false alarms because of E-field reflections from the user’s body. For pulsed systems like Radar, diode detectors can be wildly inaccurate – once the pulse takes the diode out of its square law/true RMS region it can overestimate the signal by many dB. The high frequency thermocouple sensor in the Nardalert S3 provides true square law operation for frequencies up to 100 GHz.
Whilst the Radman 2LT & Radman 2XT provide an excellent telecoms solution, the Nardalert S3 with it’s wide frequency range and sophisticated sensor technology make it ideal for more demanding applications.

Narda BFD-400
Just like the rest of the range of Narda digital field probes the new BFD-400 is designed to meet the demands of different applications – as you’d expect it can be connected to a handheld meter or (coming soon) via Narda TSX software, it will be possible to directly connect just the probe to a PC, really useful in lab/test environments.

Digital EMF Probe Repeater
Sometimes it’s really useful to connect a field probe via fibre optic cable. It might be lab use where you want to make field strength measurements in an anechoic chamber, it might be on a test range where you need a lot of distance between the field probe and you, it might be you need something with great immunity so you can make high field strength measurements.
