Characteristics of electromagnetic radiation of the veterinary physiotherapy device UMI-05-V

Abstract

We studied some physical characteristics of the veterinary physiotherapeutic device UMI-V-05. The magnetic induction at different power levels was determined using TPU 02 militeslameter. The magnetic induction was measured for each power value. The probe of the milliteslameter was placed directly on the working surface, in the center of the inductor. It was found that the minimum magnetic induction of the device is 350±6.0 mTl, and the maximum is 1058±10.0 mTl. During the device operation, the heating of the inductor was determined using a thermal imager and a stopwatch. During the recommended time range (10 minutes), the inductor temperature did not exceed 46 °C. Determination of the pulse radiation frequency depending on the magnetic induction value was carried out using a stopwatch. At each working power the number of pulses per minute was counted and the number of pulses per second was calculated (frequency determination). It was revealed that UMI-V-05 is a low-frequency source of pulsed magnetic radiation with the maximum frequency of 1.3 Hz at the minimum magnetic induction of 350±6.0 mTl and the minimum frequency of 0.1 Hz at the maximum magnetic induction of 1058±10.0 mTl. Using a ruler and a TPU 02 milliteslameter, the degree of magnetic pulse attenuation depending on the distance to the working surface of UMI-V-05 was determined, it was fixed that the value of magnetic induction varies inversely proportional to the distance from the inductor. The penetration ability of the electromagnetic pulse through different media: biological and non-biological using TPU 02 militeslameter was studied. Biological tissues (muscle, bone) and some nonbiological media (paper, glass, wood, polyethylene, water) do not affect the passage of the electromagnetic pulse, while steel significantly reduces the passage of the pulse.
