The MH-6 Helmholtz coil is a single-axis field standard with a 152 mm (6 in) inside diameter, designed for generating precise magnetic fields up to approximately 50 G. It achieves a field accuracy of 0.75% at the center and maintains field uniformity of 0.5% within a cylindrical volume 41 mm long and 41 mm in diameter centered on the coil. The coil has a DC resistance of 10 Ω and an inductance of 36 mH, with a maximum continuous current rating of 2 A (DC or RMS). It operates within a temperature range of -20 °C to 40 °C and features banana jacks for current input. The coil dimensions are 305 mm in diameter and 381 mm in length, with a 76 mm bore through both sides. It is not compatible with the Model 480 fluxmeter.
Lake Shore offers four Helmholtz coils for field standards: 2.5 in, 6 in, and 12 in diameter single axis, and the MH-2X-10 double axis coil.
