Metrel MD 9260 TRMS Solar PV Clamp Meter (CATIII) 1500V DC

The Metrel MD 9260 TRMS Solar PV Clamp Meter is the ideal tool for the installation, maintenance and testing of solar PV systems. The meter supports measurements ups to 1500V/DC with CATIII safety and a 2000A AC/DC current range. The Metrel MD 9260 can also measure resistance, capacitance, temperature and frequency, which makes the MD 9260 a great tool for use in power application and testing. The large jaw opening allows measurement of conductors up to 55mm in size.

High resolution and accuracy in measurement, combined with the back lighted LCD display (3.5/6 digits - 6000 counts -31/2 digits 1,999 counts for Hz) provide the user with precision and clarity when working in the field. Featuring PC connectivity, the user is able to transfer data to an external device, making further assessment and storage easy. 

The Metrel MD 9260 is designed with solar installation and measurement in mind, where there is a requirement to measure current, voltage, capacitance, resistance and frequency measurements with VFD.

 The Metrel MD 9260 is a great choice for those looking for a well-equipped instrument for use within the solar industry.
