The Bridge12 Active Electric Shims (AES) are a 5 channel shim system for electromagnet with a horizontal field. These magnets are typically used in Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. The five channels or the shims are: Z0 (or B0), Z1, Z2, X, and Y. Each channel can operate at a current of up to 1.5 A.

Parameter Value
Number of channels 5
Maximum current/channel 1.5 A
Spacing 53 mm

Warning

Do not exceed a current of (+/-) 1.5 A per channel to avoid permanent damage to the shims.
