Residual Magnetism Test on Electrical Solenoid Valves A residual magnetism test on electrically operated solenoid valves can be critical. We recommend a residual magnetism test should be conducted before installation in all manufacturing operations. The minimum sensitivity must be 3 gauss or lower. The Mag-Probe meets this requirement. Please note the following critical industries…
Cancer Procedure Magnetic Theory “This procedure does not constitute medical advice to any particular person, nor is the author engaged in the practice of medicine. Use of this procedure is at your own risk.” The University of California Davis made a major breakthrough when they discovered how to attach iron oxide Nanoparticles to the receptors…
Mag-Probe Lithium Battery Sealed Inside for Reliability This post explains the reason why the Bartol Mag-Probe has a Lithium Battery sealed and soldered inside of a self contained protective shell. The decision was made when the Mag-Probe was invented to isolate the components by sealing them inside of a shell to protect it from outside contamination and…
Oil and Gas worker lay offs continue to rise as crude oil nears $40.00 per barrel. Goldman Sachs raises the possibility of oil dropping to $20.00 per barrel. With lay offs around the world at a record high of over 250,00 employees the oil and gas workers that remain must work more efficiently and use tools that…
Testing Modern Relays Quickly & Effectively We have had many questions pertaining to trusting the LED light on the new modern relays. The following information explains a simple way to quickly test a relay with or without an LED indicator using a Mag-Probe. You can trust the LED on the Mag-Probe because it is a completely…
Bartol Mag-Probe Applications Organized by Industry We understand that in many industries there are overlapping Mag-Probe applications. In the aircraft industry there are airports, and airports have elevators and escalators that also have relays and solenoid valves that need to be tested. They also have vehicles with electronic ignition, another application of the Mag-Probe.…
Grounding Boeing 737-700’s Can Be Costly It doesn’t matter whether it’s the FAA or an airline voluntarily grounding an aircraft the end result of grounding an aircraft can be extremely costly. The Downtime lost potential revenue translates into more cost for passengers and extreme losses for the airlines. Consistently following maintenance schedules is paramount. Here’s…
On August 19, 2015 a problem occurred with one of the relays on a Boeing 767 Flight Idle and the Approach Idle control relay. This problem was causing one of the Boeing 767 engines to run at different rpm’s when they were supposed to be running at the same rpm. Aircraft Engineer Saemi was working…
