Technology Wirelessly Connects FLIR Cameras To Clamp Meters

April 29, 2010

The rugged new Extech EX845 1000A clamp meter is designed to deliver safety and versatility-without compromising performance or innovation. The EX845's advanced True RMS meter functions include AC/DC current, voltage, resistance, capacitance, frequency, infrared and contact temperature, diode-test, and continuity check. The fast-responding EX845's peak hold function captures inrush currents and transients.

The bright 4-digit, 4,000 count backlit display is complemented by several one-button functions including data hold, min/max, and selectable auto- or manual-ranging. The large 1.7" (43mm) jaw opening handles conductors up to 750MCM or multiple conductors such as two 500MCM. For quick, point and shoot temperature readings, the patented, non-contact IR thermometer with laser pointer is useful for fast hot-spot detection.

The EX845 has a CAT IV-600V, CAT III-1000V overvoltage safety rating and is CE and ETL approved. The meter comes complete with an 8-piece professional test lead set, a 9V battery, Type K temperature probe, and a belt holster. NIST certification is available for this product.
