Remotely monitor measurement values on a smart device with this solar clamp meter which features built-in Bluetooth to view a live trend graph and sample and log the values for later analysis. Additionally, this meter features a high-frequency rejection filter, inrush current measurement, internal data logging, a non-contact volt seek mode, and manual DC Amp zeroing.
Features
Applications
The unit is designed to be used on electrical systems and equipment, including solar/photovoltaic installations where, there is a need to measure current, volts, resistance and frequency. It is therefore intended for use while installing, maintaining, fault-finding or monitoring those systems. The tactile barrier below the jaws of the instrument ensures a safe working distance for the operator's hand when measuring current on live uninsulated conductors, although additional personal protection must still be used. The Smart Hold allows increases in measurements to be monitored with an audible tone. The Maximum/Minimum and In-rush modes enable maximum load currents from equipment to be identified such as start-up currents to motors and heaters.
