Quick and easy reading of DC and AC current of up to 1000A Unlike with multimeters, no circuit interruption required. Ideal for electric enclosures and high amperages in automotive electrical systems.Multimeter functions The device reads voltage, frequency, temperature, capacity and resistance with automatic range selection and come with diode and acoustic continuity testing. In addition, meter allows contact-less voltage testing (NCV).High-contrast display with 6000 counts and illuminated control elementsEasily readable display in all light conditions. This model tops any common clamp meters used in badly lit electrical enclosures. Readings of up to 5999 (6000 counts) are always displayed as 4-digit numbers no matter where the decimal mark is placed. In addition, the keys as well as the legend for the rotary switch position are illuminated.Bar graph displayPulsating measured values are clearly displayed with the bar graph display. Hold button perfectly accessible with thumb The Hold button is used to save the data if the display cannot be read during the measurement. This button is ergonomically placed in the position of the thumb. It does not have to be searched first, as is the case with conventional pliers.Work area lightingThe meter features a bright built-in LED with a lens that can be turned on to light up the area directly in front of the meter. Anti-slip coatingThe Voltcraft VC-533 stays where it has been placed. No accidental sliding off slanted surfaces thanks to an anti-slip rubber-coating.Compact and robust The shock-proof device features a composite enclosure including a protective rubber layer. And the rubber-coating also provides lots of grip. Prepped for PFPSsThe enclosure features a standard thread that enables attachment to straps or safety harnesses. This prevents the tool from dropping when working at heights.Temperature reading includedThe clamp meter comes with a temperature reading function using K-type thermocouple probes. The included air temperature sensor can be swapped with any Voltcraft K-type thermocouple probe to determine the temperature of as mixtures, fluids or surfaces (1000°C max).True RMS readings ensure accuracy True RMS measurement enables reading of asymmetrical voltage and amperage with wave forms other than a sinus. Asymmetric voltages are very common in various types of dimmers, speed limiters, synchonised switches, pulse-type chargers, or scale model speed controllers. Which means that in these cases conventional meters displaying average readings are prone to large measurement errors.Factory calibration ensures accurate readings Calibration according to manufacturer standards is part of Voltcraft Quality Assurance. This ensures high quality products and compliance with tolerance limits as outlined in the user manual. This does not include certification.This text is machine translated.
