Accessory Diameter

Coil & Geometry
The overall outer diameter of the accessory enclosure or pad in centimeters. This is the physical size you'd measure with a ruler. It serves as the boundary for field coverage analysis, heatmap scaling, and effective area calculations. For loops, this refers to the outer edge of the tubing ring, not the inner opening.
The physical shapes a PEMF accessory takesFour applicator forms seen from above: a solid disc, a disc on a handle (a paddle), a ring-shaped loop with an open center, and a flat mat holding many coils. The loop is marked with its inner diameter across the open center and its outer diameter across the whole ring.DiscPaddleOuter diameterInner diameterLoopMat© 2026 Gauss Labs
A PEMF accessory takes a few physical forms, and the form sets how the field is laid out. A disc concentrates the field in a spot, a paddle puts that disc on a handle, a loop is a ring that surrounds a limb, and a mat spreads many coils across a wide surface. A loop is described by two diameters: the inner diameter of its open center and the outer diameter of the whole ring.
