FLIR CM65 Solar Clamp Meter

The FLIR CM65 is a 600 A True RMS Clamp Meter designed to meet the challenges of the solar, alternative/renewable energies, and utilities industries. The supplied MC4 test leads help you troubleshoot photovoltaic systems and keep them running efficiently. The CM65 is the perfect tool for the installation and maintenance of photovoltaic systems and includes features and accessories optimised for residential and light commercial electricians, and RV technicians. The CM65 data logging utility allows you to automatically log readings to an internal file every 10 seconds. Each file can contain up to 9999 readings and the maximum number of files that can be created is 999. The quick-connect MC4 test leads and non-invasive clamp-on current readings make DC voltage measurements on solar panel strings and inverters safer, more accurate and easier to perform. Validate AC output and inverter efficiency quickly, and monitor readings from your smartphone via a wireless METERLiNK® connection to the FLIR Tools® mobile app. FEATURES 6000 count digital backlit display. 1000 V AC/DC test lead measurements. 600 A AC/DC clamp measurements. Frequency reading for AC Current/Voltage measurements. Resistance measurements to 60 k ohms. Continuity and Diode measurements. Type-K thermocouple temperature measurements. External clamp adaptor measurements. Display Hold. DC zero adjust. Minimum/Maximum/Average recording memory. Integrated VFD mode (low-pass filter) on AC V and Hz measurements.
