GM440A

Magnetic properties toroidal boxed magnetic cores from amorphous and nanocrystalline alloys

GAMMAMET® 440A

Magnetic cores GAMMAMET® 440A are made of a ribbon by thickness 25 microns with nanocrystalline structure. The ribbon is produce by means of fast incandescence from an alloy on the basis of iron. After thermal processing in a longitudinal magnetic field magnetic cores have high rectangular loop of a magnetic hysteresis.

Magnetic cores may be produced with any standard sizes with external diameter up to 600 mm, with internal diameter not less than 8 mm, proportional 5 mm at height and are delivered in protective containers.

Sizes list of magnetic cores in protective containers you can see in Table 1. Weight and geometrical sizes of toroidal boxed magnetic cores

All magnetic cores have a class of thermal stability A (105°C). At will of the customer also magnetic cores may be produced with class F (155°C).

Full service life of magnetic cores - 30 years.

Magnetic cores GAMMAMET® 440А replace soft magnetic alloys Fe- and Ni- alloys and ferrite with a rectangular loop of a magnetic hysteresis. Next table of magnetic parameters is agreed with specifications ТУ 1261-030-12287107-2007:
