PCE PA 8000 Clamp Meter
Highlights:
- Real time measurement
- Data logging with the SD card
- Integrated timer and calendar to record data
- Active, apparent, and reactive power
The PCE PA 8000 Clamp Meter is designed to measure and record power in both single-phase and three-phase circuits, making it ideal for extended measurements. It saves measurement data in xls format on the included SD card, allowing for easy analysis on a computer. The sample rate for measurements can be adjusted between 2 and 7200 seconds. In addition to measuring power, the PCE-PA 8000 can also determine power factor and phase angle. Its clamps accommodate cables with a diameter of up to 50 mm / 2.0 in. With its 3.7 in / 94 mm display, the PCE-PA 8000 Clamp Meter provides a clear view of current, voltage, and power, making it the perfect tool for use in power supply networks.
