         Incomparable protection against
         magnetic fields



         CS sensors are conceived, designed and renowned for their
         unrivalled immunity to ambient magnetic fields. Although they
         are in continuous proximity of powerful currents capable of
         distorting their measurements, this does not, in fact, occur.
         Their accuracy is rock-solid and once set to measure a particular
         current, that is what they measure – that and nothing else.
