34134A AC/DC DMM Current Probe
The 34134A Current Probe measures low DC or AC from 10 mA to 50 A DC,
40 A AC. This battery-powered clamp-on probe may be used with digital multimeters,
voltmeters, or other voltage-measuring instruments. The probe jaws clamp around the
conductor under test, allowing current measurements without breaking the circuit.
Hall sensor technology senses the magnetic field produced by the current measured,
and generates a millivolt DC or AC output signal. The narrow jaw is designed for
optimum use in crowded wiring in industrial and automotive environments.
Compatibility
The 34134A Current Probe is compatible with any DMM, or other voltage measuring
instrument which has the following features:
•
Range and resolution capable of displaying 1 mV of input.
•
Voltmeter accuracy (uncertainty) of 0.75% or better to take full advantage of the
accuracy of the probe.
•
Minimum input impedance of 100 k
(1 V/A range) or 10 k
(10 mV/A range).
•
Input jacks that accept 4mm shrouded banana plugs.
