Stefan Mayer Fluxgate Sensor Series
Stefan Mayer Instruments designs and manufactures a range of miniature fluxgate sensors combining very low noise, wide temperature tolerance, and low power consumption — ideal for portable instruments, embedded systems, and precision laboratory setups.
FLC3-70 — Miniature Triaxial Fluxgate Sensor
FLC3-70Overview
The FLC3-70 is an exceptionally compact triaxial fluxgate sensor, measuring all three components of the magnetic field vector simultaneously in a package under 1 inch wide and 2 inches long. Its single DC power supply requirement, very low current draw, and wide operating temperature range make it well-suited for battery-powered portable instruments, UAV platforms, and embedded measurement systems.
A Raspberry Pi-based data acquisition system for the FLC3-70 is currently under development, incorporating a high-resolution A/D converter with software for real-time recording and display of magnetic field data. Contact us for the latest availability information.
Key Specifications
- Triaxial (3-axis) simultaneous measurement
- Dimensions: <1″ wide × 2″ long
- Analog output
- Current consumption: <6 mA
- Single DC power supply
- Measurement range: >100 µT
- Bandwidth: 1 kHz
- Noise: <1 nTrms

FLC100 — Miniature Single-Axis Fluxgate Sensor
FLC100Overview
The FLC100 is the single-axis counterpart to the FLC3-70, sharing the same ultra-compact form factor and low-power design philosophy. It is ideal for applications where measurement along a single field component is sufficient, such as proximity sensing, compass applications, or single-axis field monitoring in space-constrained installations. Its analog output interfaces easily with standard data acquisition hardware.
Key Specifications
- Single-axis measurement
- Dimensions: <1″ wide × 2″ long
- Analog output
- Current consumption: <6 mA
- Single DC power supply
- Measurement range: >100 µT
- Bandwidth: 1 kHz
- Noise: <1 nTrms
- Wide operating temperature range
FL1 Series — High-Sensitivity Fluxgate Sensors
FL1-100Overview
The FL1 series represents a step up in sensitivity within the Stefan Mayer fluxgate range, offering noise performance an order of magnitude better than the FLC series. Available in three sensor configurations — single-axis, dual-axis, and triaxial — and with multiple field range options, the FL1 family provides flexibility for demanding laboratory and observatory-grade measurements where the highest sensitivity is required.
Key Specifications
- Available configurations: single-axis, dual-axis, triaxial
- Multiple field range options
- Bandwidth: 1 kHz
- Noise: <20 pTrms/√Hz
- High-sensitivity research-grade performance
