Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) Vertical Electric Field Exposure of Rats: Irradiation Facility.

Abstract

An extremely low frequency (ELF) vertical, electric field irradiation facility consisting of six identical exposure chambers for biological research is described. Each exposure chamber can be independently operated up to field strengths of 1000 V/m (RMS) at any sinusoidal ELF frequency. At 45 Hz, the frequency chosen for this research, chamber cross-talk is less than -60 dB and the vertical electric field uniformity within the exposure area is + or - 5%. A complete description of the ambient 60 Hz electric and magnetic fields is presented. (Author)
