Comtest Technologies, accredited southern African partner to Fluke – global leader in handheld electronic test and measurement equipment has re-launched the newly re-designed Fluke 345 Clamp Meter due to the discontinuation of some its major components. Performance specifications of the replacement product, however, remain the same as the previous version.
Designed specifically for technicians and engineers involved in installing
and commissioning switching electronic loads, the Fluke 345 Power Quality Clamp Meter deals with the difficult demands of measuring and monitoring variable frequency drives, UPS systems and other switching loads.
Fluke 345’s key features:
- ac/dc voltage, current and power and associated values.
- Clamp-on measurement of ac peak rms and dc current up to 2000 A without breaking the circuit
- large backlit color display of waveforms and trends
- accurate measurement of parameters: Even with distorted waveforms present on electronic loads with switchable low-pass filter
- Data logging: Identify intermittent faults by logging any power parameters for minutes or months, including harmonics
- Verify batteries: Direct measurement of dc ripple (%) for dc systems
- Troubleshoot harmonics: Analyze and log harmonics digitally or graphically
- Inrush current: Capture and analysis, from 3 seconds to 300 seconds
- 3-Phase power: Built in capability for balanced loads
- View graphs and generate reports: With included Power Log software
- Highest safety rating: 600 V CAT IV/1000 V CAT III rated for use at the service entrance
The new Fluke 345 will completely replace the old instrument. From the exterior the instruments are identical. The old instruments have firmware 1.x while the new instrument has firmware equal or greater than 2.0.
