2.3 Work environment The work environment of the Accessories, must come within the following
conditions:
• Temperature From -20°C to +55°C
• Humidity 0 to 95% relative
The meter must be stored in a clean and dry environment, free from acid
dusts and humidity.
The storage environment must come within the range of the following
conditions:
• Temperature From -30°C to + 75°C
• Humidity < 100% relative without condense
2.4 To return for repair When the meter needs to be returned to NARDA for repair, please
complete the questionnaire appended to this User’s Manual, filling in all the
data that will be useful for the service you have requested.
For reducing the period of time required for the repairs, it is necessary to be
as specific as possible in describing the problem. If the problem only occurs
in certain circumstances, please describe in detail how it happens.
If possible it is better to reuse the original packaging; making sure that the
apparatus is wrapped in thick paper or plastic.
Otherwise, use strong packaging by using a sufficient quantity of shock
absorbent material around all sides of the meter to ensure that it is compact
and does not move around inside the package.
In particular, take every precaution to protect the front panels.
Finish the package by sealing it up tightly.
Apply a FRAGILE label to the package to encourage greater care in its
handling.
2.5 To clean the meter Use a dry, clean and non-abrasive cloth for cleaning the meter.
Make a full charging cycle before using the Analyzer for longest battery
operation time.
The minimum voltage level for operation is about 3.25V. The batteries
must be recharged for lower voltages. Below such voltage the
analyzer will turn OFF automatically.
The time required for recharging the batteries is about 4-5 hours.
When the recharge is complete, this is indicated by the Led of the
EHP-50D, with a rapidly blinking Green light.
2.8 EHP-50D stand alone The EHP-50D offers a Stand-alone mode of operation and thanks to its
Mode internal memory is possible to perform a long term acquisition without
connecting it to any external device.
With EHP-50D is possible to collect data every 1 minute or every 30
seconds for 24 hours. Later on, it is possible to download all collected data
to any PC by using the provided EHP-TS PC software.
2.9 EHP-50D with EHP-50D is linked to NBM-550 via the fiber optic link.
NBM-550
2.10 Battery The Table summaries the battery autonomy of the Analyzer depending on
management its mode of operation.
The intensity of the measured field mainly depends on its voltage and
the geometry of the system under examination as well as the distance
between the conductors and the measurement points. In the vicinity
of cables, the reading of the field value may be very high and vary
with the location of the probe.
From the definition of the potential difference between to points:
r2
V 21 ∫ E dr
= −
r1
It is evident that, keeping the potential difference constant as the
distance between the two points under examination decreases, the
intensity of the field necessarily increases.
For example: the intensity of the electric field between two armatures
of a parallel-plate capacitor situated at a distance of 0.1 m and having
a potential difference of 100 V is equal to:
100V
E= = 1 KV
0,1m m
It should be noted that a voltage of 100 V, in these conditions,
generates a field of 1000 V/m. It is, therefore, possible, in the vicinity
of 220 V conductors, that there may be a field, which is much higher
than 220 V/m.
Using the former optical/RS232 adapter, the selected COM port should be
assigned to the application software (see cap.5 EHP-TS applications).
The EHP-TS installation program doesn’t install any driver for USB-OC
converter but makes the driver file available for its installation.
EHP-TS software does not work with EHP50A/B which can be anyway
factory upgraded to the EHP-50C version (please contact your local
Narda distributor for details)
.

EHP-TS software is now installed in your PC, you can remove it, if needed,
simply running the “Uninstall EHP-TS” application (see cap.8).
In case the driver is not already installed, a message informing that new
hardware has been found will be shown and a guided installation will start:
Click “Finish” to complete driver installation, the new hardware is now ready
to be used.
USB-OC converter driver is now installed in your PC, you can remove it, if
needed, following instructions in cap.9.
Do not pull the optic fiber by holding onto the cable but use the
connector so that the head does not get damaged.
Avoid dirt and other particles getting into the transducers of the optic
fiber.
EHP50 – Stand Alone Mode: main task of this program is to set up EHP-
50D for standalone mode. The analyzer will take and log E or H field
measurements (according to the setting) for up to 24 hours, when switched
on without any connection to external devices (see operating manual for
details). Using EHP-50-Stand Alone mode program is then possible to
download measurement results and store them as a text file.
EHP-50E Dongle Utility: this is a tool to allows to enable the function WP10
ordered such Options.
The User might have the need of administrator privileges to install and
run the software in Windows 7; for further information see the
paragraphs in Chapter 3.

5-2 Description
Description:
Sweep: to select a specific frequency span and, within the selected span, to
set zoom function
Description 5-3
5.3 Sweep section
Span: select one of the 7 available span keeping in mind that beside the
EHP-50D minimum operating frequency of 5 Hz, the minimum start
frequency of each Span is 1,2% of Span. For example, selecting 1kHz span
the minimum start frequency should be 12Hz (automatically adjusted to the
nearer step available of 12.5Hz).This to avoid that the 0Hz signal, common
to every spectrum analyzer, is included in the measurement result.
Start frequency of 100Hz and 200Hz span is therefore 5Hz (minimum
operating frequency).
Right click and drag on the graph window to define graphically the
Zoom frequency range.
5-4 Description
Fig.5-3 Zoom window
Also choosing the best dynamic between 120 and 140 dB can be helpful to
better distinguish signals and disturbances.
Description 5-5
5.4 Data section Even if EHP-50D takes measurement over the entire selected span, shown
results are related to the displayed spectrum only, allowing thus detailed
evaluation of user defineable frequency range through the zoom function.
The gray band on the left side of the graph highlights signals below the
minimum start frequency (1,2 % of Span) which are affected by residual 0Hz
peak. Calculation of Wideband result (see below) does not include any
spectral line within the gray band.
Marker: you can place a marker anywhere on the spectrum display with a
mouse click
Showed parameters:
Field strength at Marker frequency in the selected Unit (V/m in the above
picture)
Marker frequency (Hz)
% of contribution to the WideBand result
5-6 Description
WideBand: integration over the displayed frequency band
It is the square sum of all contributions within the displayed spectrum. Result
of calculation is the field strength expressed in the selected unit while
“Bandwidth” is the difference between Stop and Start frequency.
Four additional frames, Marker, WP10, Save and Waterfall, are included in
the Data section:
Marker: in this area you can select on which trace to place the Marker:
specific axis (X,Y,Z) or Total result.
Three dedicated buttons, Highest Peak, Next Peak and Previous Peak,
allow Marker positioning over peaks shown by the graph.
If activated, Limit checkbox allows displaying the Limit value corresponding
to the Marker frequency.
Save: three buttons in this area to save spectrum as a picture file (.bmp), as
a text file (.txt) or to copy the spectrum picture to the Windows Clipboard.
Description 5-7
5.4.1 Waterfall In addition to the spectrum view, another representation has been
introduced in the software, commonly called Waterfall.
The advantage of this view is that the disturbances are shown in a
tridimensional plot. Two dimensions are, as usual, frequency and level, and
the third is the time.
In this way it is possibile to detect and track time-varying signals.
The ranges for Frequency and Level are the same as the Spectrum view.
When pressing the Start Waterfall button, a pop-up message can appear
warning the operator if a file with the same name as the one in use, already
exists.
Press Save As to mantain the original file, or Overwrite to cancel the old
measurement with the starting new one.
In the Graph 2D, the horizontal axis represents Frequency, the vertical axis
is the Time and the colour is the Level.
The Color Scale referenced to levels and units, is indicated on the right
bottom of the screen.
The status-bar shows the number of tracks already acquired and the
maximum available.
On the right two sliders permit to set the preferred Reference Level and
Color Saturation (level dynamic range).
5-8 Description
When entering the Open Waterfall function a screen similar to the following
appears:
Like during the scan, on the left is the spectrogram of the measurements.
The column in the middle, called Events Horizon, reports the Marker with its
frequency and level and many parameters of the measurement setup and of
the probe used.
On the right, in addition to Ref. Level and Color Saturation, there are two
more sliders, useful to set the frequency resolution (Point of Track) and the
time interval (N° track).
It is also possible to Import or Export a full acquisition by pressing the
corresponding button in the Archive box. The name of the measurement can
be typed in the Name box and from the list it is possible to select an already
saved one.
In the Save box two or four buttons (depending on the marker activation)
can be pressed to save:
- a single trace (Levels vs Frequencies)
- a single Frequency (Levels vs Time)
- an image of the spectrogram
- the clipboard
Description 5-9
Fig.5-7 Waterfall - Graph 3D
In the Graph 3D, one axis (blue) represents Frequency, another the Level
(green) and the third the Time (red). So the Frequency can be on the
horizontal axis, the Level on the vertical axis and the Time in depth.
5-10 Description
Another option of the Graph 3D, the Time plot, is available when the Marker
is active.
A new window pops up and the plot represents the level at the marker
frequency versus time.
The horizontal axis of the grid is the time and the vertical axis is the field
level.
The Marker can be moved with the mouse to look for the desired
frequency.
In the 3D view also the dynamic can be selected between 120 and 140 dB,
to help for the best identification of disturbances.
Description 5-11
5.4.1.1 Data recording The subsequent spectra are automatically recorded and saved in a single
file *.WF5 localized in the folder Waterfall in the program root, inclusive of
all the analyzer settings.
The stored files can be recalled when in Data mode or at startup entering
the Open Waterfall window.
The filename is set by the operator prior to starting the test and it is
indicated at the upper right corner of the Waterfall window.
5-12 Description
5.5 Mode section Mode section allows setting different acquisition modes, including Max and
Average result, as well as defining Electric, Magnetic field, or both in the
same graph, and preferred Unit. Logarithmic or Linear frequency axis can
be set in this section too.
RMS over: square average calculated over the specified time period (sec)
is shown. This is a moving average. Ones the first time period has been
completed, oldest data is discarded to be replaced by the newest one
showing thus the average value of the latest time period as specified.
Max Hold: the maximum field strength value of each frequency step is
retained and displayed since the Max Hold function has been activated.
Every spectral line is therefore updated only if the new value is grater than
the previously dislayed one showing thus the Maximum of each spectral line
since the Max hold function was activated.
Unit: to select unit according to the Input setting. Electric field can be
expressed in V/m and % of the limit only while Magnetic field can be
expressed in A/m, μT (magnetic induction), mG or % of selected limit. Dual
mode units are always V/m and A/m.
The unit “%” can be selected only if a Limit has been activated. Each
spectrum line will then represent the field strength expressed as
percent of the selected limit.
Description 5-13
5.6 Limit section Limit section allows the user to select standard ICNIRP and IEEE limits,
already included by the software installation, as well as user’s limits which
can be created through the “Make Limit” function provided by this section.
Default: The default limit section can be used to load a default standard
limit saved into the memory at the factory. Default limit list shows limits
which are compatible to the actual setting only. If Electric field was selected
in the Mode section, electric field limits only are displayed by the limit list. No
default limit is shown in case mG unit was selected.
User Defined:This limit section allows to select and activate a specific limit
among limits created and saved by the user. They can be Linear or Non
Linear (governed by a mathematic formula).
The Make Limit button opens a window to edit linear limits and create new
ones:
Type frequency and field strength for each point of the required limit and
click save to save it under the program directory. The limit file will be created
as a linear interpolation between specified points.
5-14 Description
The Make Non Linear Limit button opens a window to edit those limits that
are related to a mathematic formula, and create new ones:
Type in the Start and Stop frequencies in the appropriate boxes, and choose
the right measurement Unit.
Then choose the formula from the list and type the exponent value.
Click save to save it under the program directory. The limit file will be
created as a calculation of the mathematic expression.

5.8 ICNIRP The International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
establishes guidelines for limiting EMF exposure that could affect human
health.
Limit section allows the user to select standard ICNIRP limits, already
included by the software installation.
When the ICNIRP limit is selected, the software automatically calculates the
corresponding total integration of the measured signals, and compares the
result with the threshold set by the standard, considering whether it is or is
not exceeded.
The calculation of the ICNIRP value is performed if all three axes are
enabled
Description 5-17
In the screenshot above it is depicted an example how the software shows
the calculation of the ICNIRP value for the Electric Field measurement.
5-18 Description
5.9 IEEE One of the purposes of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic
Engineers, Inc. ("IEEE") is to establish exposure standards.
Limit section allows the user to select standard IEEE limits, already
included by the software installation.
When the IEEE limit is selected, the software automatically calculates the
corresponding total integration of the measured signals, and compares the
result with the threshold set by the standard, considering whether it is or is
not exceeded.
The calculation of the IEEE value is performed if all three axes are
enabled
Description 5-19
In the screenshot above it is depicted an example how the software shows
the calculation of the IEEE value for the Electric Field measurement.
5-20 Description
5.10 Additional EHP-200A electromagnetic field analyzer provides Electric and Magnetic
functions provided field selective measurement in the 9kHz – 30MHz frequency range.
by EHP200-TS Even though there is no difference from EHP-50D regarding minimal
physical overall dimensions and sensor positioning, a high frequency
selective receiver is housed within this product.
Additional settings and functions are therefore available.
Regarding settings, Span can be set as desired within the entire frequency
range and required RBW filter can be selected down to 1kHz allowing thus
optimum selectivity.
As requested by reference standards, Average value can be automatically
calculated over 6 minutes as well as over customer defineable time periods.
An important advantage, which is provided thanks to the Dual (E and H), Tri-
axial sensor technology implemented in EHP-200A is the new concept of
power density calculation which, unlike common practice, makes use of both
E and H real measurements providing thus accurate results which are still
valid in both Near and Far Field conditions.
Fig.5-8 Both electric and magnetic fields can be displayed on the same graph.
Fig.5-9 Power density spectrum is calculated over real electric and magnetic field
measurement and therefore applicable to both far and near field conditions.
Description 5-21
New wave impedance function is provided too by selecting the Ohm unit.
This function automatically searches and displays result at frequencies
showing effective fied ratio calculation.
5-22 Description
6 - EHP-50D Stand alone mode
6.1 Stand alone mode EHP-50D has been designed to be used also in stand-alone mode. This
description mode is useful because no external devices is connected to the analyzer
during measurements. Once the measurement parameters have been
programmed through a PC, the EHP-50D analyzer can start its acquisition
by storing the data over 24 hours in a stand-alone mode. It is necessary to
position it over the TR-02A tripod and to activate the start. After 24 hours it
will stop automatically and later it would be possible to download all data to
the PC by using the provided EHP-TS PC software. From PC it is possible
to select to measure the electric or magnetic field, to select the range, the
Highest or Wideband mode, the SPAN whished and the sampling rate of
one minute or 30 seconds.
Some typical applications are:
- Magnetic fields near high, medium and low voltage transformers
- Measurements in proximity of power line
- Safety measurement at worker’s site
- Measurements close to machines, air conditioning systems, home
appliances etc.
- Development of new products
The led of EHP-50D will flash every second to inform that it is ON with red
light. After every minute (or 30 sec) the led will become green for the time
requested by the analyzer to perform one measurement. The time that the
led remain green will depend by the selected SPAN. Lower Span requires
longer measurement time.
The acquisition can be terminated earlier than 24 hours. Just turn off
the EHP-50D and run EHP50D application to download the data to the
PC.
The Read Logger will not be available unless the communication between
the PC and the analyzer has been established. Click this button to read the
actual EHP-50D setup.
The Set Logger window will not be available unless you change some
parameters. The Set Logger will be active and available for the user to
