FLIR clamp meters combine the power of traditional clamp meters with cutting-edge thermal imaging technology, giving you a whole new perspective on electrical troubleshooting and analysis.

What is a clamp meter used for?

A clamp meter, also commonly referred to as a current clamp or a clamp-on ammeter, measures the electrical current without the hassle of disconnecting circuits or wires. A FLIR clamp meter can be used by technicians and electricians to measure the direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC) efficiently. Whether you need to check for electrical faults, troubleshoot electrical systems, or simply assess the performance of various electrical components, then a FLIR clamp meter has got you covered.

Why should you use a FLIR Clamp Meter?

• Some models like the CM274 feature Infrared Guided Measurement (IGM) – lets you visualise hot spots and overloaded circuits with the built in integrated thermal imaging sensor.
• Preventative Maintenance - identify potential issues before they become failures, avoiding costly downtime and repairs.
• Enhanced Safety - detect dangerous overheating conditions from a safe distance, minimising the risk of shock or arc flash.

FLIR clamp meters offer a range of advanced features that go beyond just thermal vision:

• True RMS measurement - accurately measure distorted waveforms for reliable results.
• LoZ and Smart Diode - troubleshoot grounding issues and leakage currents with ease.
• Rugged Design - built to withstand harsh environments and demanding workloads.
• Large Backlit Display - read measurements clearly in any lighting conditions.
• Data Logging and Connectivity - transfer and analyse data for further investigation and reporting.

Applications

FLIR clamp meters can be used in a vast range of industries and applications, including:

• Automotive diagnostics
• Renewable energy systems
• Electrical troubleshooting
• Electrical load monitoring
• Electrical maintenance
• Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems
• Fire safety inspections
• Industrial equipment maintenance
• Appliance testing and maintenance
