Extech EX820A 1000A Clamp Meter with IR Thermometer - AC only

The Extech EX820A Clamp Meter is a non-contact infrared thermometer which has been expertly designed to monitor temperature and locate hotspots on motors and electrical devices. With a large 6000 count LCD display and bright back lighting, the user can easily see readings even in dim lighting. The 43mm jaw opening is large enough for conductors up to 750MCM or two 500MCM, and the double-molded housing is able to offer a better grip for one-handed operation. With 1000A True RMS measurements and a CAT IV 600V safety rating, the EX820A is the ideal choice for electricians, electrical contractors, and plant maintenance professionals.

The EX820A Clamp Meter is able to measure AC current only, whereas the EX840A can measure both AC and DC current. With a Low Pass Filter to ensure accurate readings in any environment, and Low Impedance Mode (LoZ) to reduce false readings caused by ghost voltages, the EX8xxA range is a smart choice for professionals.
