| Milliamp Clamp Features
|
Application
|
How it saves time and money
|
| Measure mA signals for PLC and control system
analog I/O without breaking the loop. (771, 772 and 773)
|
Measures low level dc current
|
Correlate process indication with real physical value
|
| Measure output signals from transmitters without breaking the loop (771, 772 and 773)
|
Maintain and troubleshoot process and automation equipment without breaking the loop
|
No disruption to the process
|
| Detachable clamp with extension cable (771, 772 and 773)
|
Measurements
in tight locations
|
Enables measurements in difficult situations
|
| Source, simulate and measure mA signals in circuit (break the loop) (772 and 773)
|
Confirm non-contact measurement. Have the next tool in hand for troubleshooting (source simulate)
|
Eliminates the need to return to the shop to get a loop calibrator for troubleshooting after finding a bad signal with non-contact measurement
|
| Source and measure VDC (773 only)
|
Troubleshoot voltage input and output devices.
|
Measure presence of 24V loop power. Measure 1 to 5 or 0 to 10V process signals. Test chart recorders
|
| 4 to 20 mA In/out (773 only)
|
Dual channel mA source and measurement for troubleshooting
|
Source 4 to 20 mA signals into valves and mA signal conditioners and simultaneously measure 4 to 20 mA positioning output signals.
|
| 4 to 20 mA scaled output (773 only)
|
Scaled mA output provides a mA signal output representative of the measured mA value
|
Connect a logging DMM and log the mA signal without breaking the loop
|
| Loop power supply (772 and 773)
|
Power a transmitter
|
Substitute testing of the installed 24V loop power supply. Power a transmitter and measure its mA output signal for troubleshooting.
|
| Dual backlit display with both mA measurement
and percent of 4 to 20 mA span (771, 772 and 773)
|
Clear measurement presentation
|
Allows quick measurement evaluation
|
| Measurement Spotlight (771, 772 and 773)
|
Illuminates hard to see wires in dark enclosures
|
Measurement process is easier and quicker
|
| Measure up to 99.9 mA range non-contact (771, 772 and 773)
|
Wide range of measurements
|
Measures 10 to 50 mA signals in older control systems
|
| Automatic power off (771, 772 and 773)
|
After 15 minutes and 2 minute automatic off for backlight and spotlight
|
Saves battery life
