1. Introduction: ClampMeter. Thankyouvery much forselecting Weare leadingmanufacturer of Electrical a n d Electronicsstate-of-art measuring instruments. And DIN43751. These clamp meters are Manufactured as per IS.13875 2. Safety features and safety precautions You have chosen a Clamp meter which provides you a very high degree 300A/1000A tested of safety.
Meaning of categories and their signifi canceper IEC61010- CAT I: Measurements in electrical circuits which are not directly connected to the mains: for example electrical systems in motor vehicles and aircraft, batteries etc. circuits Measurements in electrical w hich are electrically connected to the low-voltage mains:with plugs, e.g.
Switching the meter “ON" Press the"ON/OFF"push button (2). Switch - “ON"is Acknowledged by a sound Signal. As long as you Keep the push button pressed, all segments of the LCD will appear.The LCD is shown behind over page After the push button is released, the meter is ready for operation. Note: Electric discharges and high-frequency Influence may caus e incorrect...

11. Temperature measurement Allows you to measure Temperature 1 2 Clamp 300A/ 1000A AC-DC with Pt100 and Pt1000 temperature sensors in the range from- 200( -100) C...+850 Set the function selector switch(6) to"Ω " Connect the sensor to the two terminals. Briefly press the yellow Multifunction push button(5).
Zero adjustment on the 30 nF measuring range When measuring small capacitrance values on the 30 nF range, the internal resistance of the multimeter and the capacitrance of the leads can be eliminated by zero adjustement. Connect the test leads to the meter without device under test. Briefly press the yellow multi-function pushbutton (5) diplaying"00.00"(+1 digit) on the LCD and by a flashing decimal point.The capacitance measured at the instant the pushbutton is pressed is used as reference value (max.200 digits).
15. Currentmeasurement 1000A Current Up to 1000A, in two ranges can measure Clamp NC 1 2 300A can measure I.e. 300.0A and 1000A. Where as current up to 300A in Two ranges i.e.30.00 A and 300.0 A. One of the two range scan be selected manually with AUTO/MAN Key. To measure the current through a cable, push the trigger (21) to open the jaws and clamp the jaws around the cable as shown in Figure a and figure b.

Unique design for safety and comfort Rotary mechanism for clamp jaws: n conventional clamp meters display, keys and clamp jaws are in the same plane. When current measurement is to be done on vertical bus bars, over head cables, cables in congested places user connect the clamp meter but the keys and display may not be visible, hence not able to take the readings or operate the keys.
Normally, it is difficult to access the middle busbar for current measurement. With Rotary mechanism for clamp jaws it is easy to access middle bus bar, " " while keeping display and keys facing towards the user as shown in figure d on previous page.
