Current clamp C107
AC current clamp for NanoVIP® power quality analyzers
Amperometric clamp for AC currents from 0.1 A to 1000 A with high measurement precision and stability all over the range.
Compact, strong and precise
- Can be used on NanoVIP® family analyzers without the need for external power supply or amplification.
- Equipped with automatic recognition system if used on the latest NanoVIP® series analyzers: TWOTM, CUBETM and QUADRATM
- Designed for the measurement of alternating currents in a wide range of values: from 0.1A to 1000A
- Minimum phase difference
- Robust and reliable
- The grippers can grip conductors up to 52 mm in diameter.
- Progressive grippers opening control system
- Oscillating magnetic element adjustment system
- The precision that it offers on the whole measuring range allows it a very wide use (from civil to industrial)
- The shape allows a safe use even when wearing safety gloves
- Optionally adapters are available to use it on older generation of Elcontrol analyzers, without automatic clamp recognition
Characteristics
The C107 round jaw shape and the uniformly-distributed winding guarantee accuracy and minimum phase difference.
It is equipped with an oscillating magnetic element adjustment system. Its Ø 52 mm clamping capacity allows current measurements on most conductors on CAT III 600 V industrial applications.
C107 AC clamp can be used on all the analyzers of the latest generation of NanoVIP® family (production from 2015 onwards with automatic recognition of the current clamps) except for the DS model that can only mount the DC clamp.
For the older NanoVIP® analyzers (without clamps recognition), suitable adapters are available to allow their use.
