Common Magnetic Shielding Terms
• Field Strength (H)
• Flux Density (B)
• Frequency (F)
• Permeability (µ)
• Saturation (Bs)
• Attenuation (A)
Field Strength (H)(Oe, mOe, A/M)
Field strength depends on the intensity level of the source and its distance from the shield.
Flux Density (B)(G, mG, T)
Flux density measures lines of flux per square centimeter.
Permeability (µ=B/H)
Permeability measures the capacity of a material to provide a flux path.
Permeability Factors
• Manufacturers’ µ data on rings, not shields
• Flux density evenly distributed and measurable
• Known factors: diameter, length, spacing, material thickness, frequency, etc.
• Unknown factors: end caps, holes, stress, seams, joints, doors, furnace loading variation, material lot variation, etc.

Permeability vs. Thickness
Saturation (Bs)
Saturation is the maximum level of magnetic flux that a given material can conduct.
Saturation
• Assumes high permeability (µ) material
• Flux lines which are within 2 radii from the center of the
shield will be pulled into the shield material
• The shield will not saturate as long as 𝑩𝒔𝒂𝒕 >𝑩𝒂𝒑𝒑𝒍𝒊𝒆𝒅 ∗ 𝟐𝒓

Demagnetization
Procedure for Cylinder Demagnetization
𝐻 =𝑁𝐼
𝐿𝑓𝑒
Method: This method allows varying the current in order to minimize the number of coil windings.Using a VARIAC, ramp up slowly to the selected current over 15 seconds, hold for 15 seconds, and then ramp down to zero amps over 15 seconds.Repeating the cycle three times will optimize demagnetization. Additional cycles beyond that tend to have little, if any, benefit.
