Description

Clamp-on tester PCE-PCM 3
Digital multimeter for single-phase measurement / NCV measurement / W / VA / Var / Inrush Current / 1000 A AC Current Measurement / Bluetooth Interface / Frequency Measurement / Backlight / Voltage measurement / 750 kW power

With the clamp-on tester AC currents of up to 1000 A AC can be measured easily. At the same time, voltages of up to 1000V AC / DC can be measured with the clamp-on tester. Thus, with the power current clamp, apparent power, reactive power and active power measurements up to 750 KW are possible. Another function of the clamp-on tester is the measurement of the inrush current. Many consumers have a tremendously high current at the moment of switch-on. With a conventional clamp-on tester such a measurement is not possible. For the clamp-on tester this is not a problem.

With the NCV (Not Connected Voltage) function of the clamp-on tester, it can be checked whether a voltage is applied to a line without performing a contacting measurement. This makes the work much easier for the user thanks to the clamp-on tester. In addition to the measuring function, the clamp-on tester can also be connected to a terminal via the Bluetooth interface. Via this Bluetooth interface, the measured data can be transmitted directly from the clamp-on tester to the terminal, where it can be logged, analyzed and sent.

Accuracies are given at ambient conditions of 18 ... 28°C / 65 ... 83°F. *The temperature is the difference between the temperature of the operating conditions and the current ambient temperature.

Example:
Is the current ambient temperature greater than the temperature of the operating conditions
(50°C / 122°F (current ambient temperature)) - (40°C / 104°F (operating temperature) = 10°C / 50°F
Is the current ambient temperature less than the temperature of the operating conditions
(0°C (operating temperature)) - (-5°C / 23°F (current ambient temperature)) = 5°C / 41°F
