TECPEL EMF-701 Electromagnetic Field Tester, for quick, simple, and accurate measurement of electromagnetic radiation intensities

Product Introduction

The EMF-701 is a hand-held electromagnetic field tester designed for measuring the electromagnetic radiation of power lines, home appliances, and industrial equipment. It provides quick and accurate measurement results and has a wide range of applications. Electromagnetic Waves Concealing Cancer Risks China Times Electronic News 2006/03/16 Recently, there has been widespread concern and panic in society regarding the potential harm of electromagnetic waves near school campuses, causing distress among patients at clinics. According to research by domestic and international experts, microwaves and radio waves are low-frequency radiation, unlike X-rays or gamma rays which are high-frequency and high-radiation. However, even small amounts of these electromagnetic waves, accumulated over time, can potentially cause some harm to the body. In our current environment, due to the increasing number of electronic devices and wireless equipment, the density of emitted electromagnetic waves is continuously rising, possibly affecting our genetic makeup. Studies by foreign scholars have shown that mice exposed to low-frequency microwaves for extended periods have a higher chance of developing cancer. Reports from Europe and America indicate that individuals who work long hours in communication engineering or who are employed at broadcasting stations for extended periods may have an increased risk of cancer. A major concern today is high-voltage electrical installations. The magnetic field strength generated by these installations can be measured in units called "Gauss." If the magnetic field strength of a transformer is within one milliGauss, there should be no issue. However, if the magnetic field strength exceeds two milliGauss, children living nearby may have an increased risk of developing cancer. Additionally, household halogen lamps, if used frequently and closely, are not ideal, whereas regular light bulbs pose no such concern. In light of this, the following precautions are recommended for properly handling household electrical equipment: Use wires with thicker insulation at home to reduce magnetic field strength. Avoid using halogen lamps and opt for regular light bulbs. Minimize the use of electric blankets. Keep the microwave oven door closed when not in use, and stay away when it's operating. Maintain a distance of at least four feet between bedrooms and TVs, refrigerators, or freezers. Ensure that bedside lamps are at least two feet away from the bed; if too close, minimize their use. Cover the transformers of terminals and TVs. Turn off all appliances and unplug them when not in use. Use fewer appliances with remote control features. Limit the frequency and duration of using hairdryers. In a modern household, many appliances are necessary to facilitate daily life, so it's crucial to follow the proper usage methods and handle details as mentioned above to minimize the potential harm caused by these low-frequency electromagnetic waves.
