Product overview: Solar Tools Kit with 393 FC Clamp Meter, Irradiance Meter and Solar Test Leads
The 393 FC CAT III 1500 V True-rms Clamp Meter with iFlex is an industrial clamp meter designed for solar photovoltaic (PV) installation technicians and maintenance professionals who work in high voltage dc environments. Safely connect the Solar PV test leads to the clamp meter to validate voltage and current from individual panels or a series of panels in a PV array. The inline capabilities of the Solar PV PVLEAD3 leads allow the system to remain online and generating power while testing without needing to pierce the line. Use the IRR1-SOL to obtain the amount of solar irradiance necessary to calculate the IV curve of the power output. Validate that the panel or string of panels are outputting the correct voltage.
Key functions of the solar clamp meter, irradiance meter and Solar PV test leads:
- View voltage and current simultaneously with the meter's dual display
- IP54 rated meter, ideal for work outdoors including PV panel testing
- DC power measurement, showing readings in kVA
- Logging and reporting of test results via Fluke Connect software
- Make instantaneous measurements to determine the watts per square meter solar irradiation, required by IEC 62446-1 standard
- Solar PV leads comply to IEC / EN 61010-031
