A '''null field generator''' was a device that created fields capable of deflecting many sorts of transmissions. Sounds and radiation on one side of a null field could not penetrate to the other. | A '''null field generator''' was a device that created fields capable of deflecting many sorts of transmissions.

Close to the time of his death from old age, [[Angelo Colasanto]] kept a null field generator salvaged from the ruins of the [[Torchwood Hub]] hidden under the floor directly beneath his bed. When [[Jack Harkness]] approached, the device activated, shielding Colasanto from the effects of [[Miracle Day]], preventing him from becoming immortal like the rest of humanity and allowing him to die. After the device was discovered by the [[Central Intelligence Agency|CIA]] in Colosanto's mansion, Harkness reprogrammed the generator to nullify sound around the device so he could talk privately with agents [[Rex Matheson]] and [[Esther Drummond]] about the danger it posed to [[21st century]] [[Earth]]. With the ability to hide almost any event from detection, Harkness warned that the temptation to kill and destroy on any scale — all in secret — would lead to a devastated and barren future. Before escaping from the mansion, Harkness slipped a panel from the generator into a coat pocket, claiming that without that single panel, the device would not function.
