Clamp Meters: Getting the Most-Needed Functions

From Extech Instruments, A FLIR Company

When you are responsible for installations, maintenance, repairs, and overhauls of "everything industrial," your toolbox can fill up pretty quickly with all the tools and test equipment needed to constantly change gears from job to job. Jobs can range from electrical testing on pumps, motor controls, and boilers, to heating and cooling measurements, to lift and conveyance systems diagnostics, to furnace, flame signal, and compressor troubleshooting. For many of these jobs, a multi-function clamp meter designed for the industrial setting can help you with essential electrical readings such as current, voltage, and temperature.

Megohmmeters
Megohmmeters generate high voltage, low current signals for testing the breakdown strength of electrical insulation. They are called megohmmeters because the insulating resistance of a properly designed product is expressed in mega ohms (MOmega: Ohms ).
EMI and RFI Testers
EMI and RFI testers monitor the presence of unwanted electromagnetic and radio frequency radiation.
Harmonic Distortion Meters
Harmonic distortion meters are instruments that measure harmonic distortion or phase position.
Field Intensity Meters
Receivers are used to detect buried or hidden piping, equipment or ferromagnetic ores.
