Description

Chauvin Arnoux F406 True RMS Clamp Meter

The Chauvin Arnoux F406 True RMS Clamp Meter builds on the already-strong foundations of the Chauvin Arnoux F405 Clamp Meter, with modifications to the AC and DC voltage measurement ranges of 50mV to 1200V rms and 50mV to 1700V respectively. This instrument is the ultimate tool for maintenance on applications and 'Mixed AC+DC' inspections, with the ability to be used for phase rotation, THD, ΔREL, power values, and Min/Max/Peak.

The F406 has a large 10,000-count backlit display, whilst also providing maximum protection with an IP54 rating. This ensures protection against dust and dirt, and also protects the user no matter the environment it is being used in. Whatever the waveform of the signal, the F406 can offer accurate measurements that can be used by electricians to make informed decisions. With an impressive clamping diameter of 48mm, the user is able to run a plethora of testing options from the instrument, such as 'Min/Max', 'True InRush', 'ΔREL', as well as RELativ ∆X and ∆X/X (%).
