Description

The mA-2000 is a clamp-on, non-contact milliammeter designed to measure very low DC and AC currents without direct electrical contact. It features a clear 3 1/2 digit digital display and provides an analog output suitable for connection to oscilloscopes or recorders.

Features

• Non-contact measurement of low-level DC and AC currents
• Easy-to-read 3 1/2 digit display
• Analog output for external monitoring

Typical Applications

The device is suitable for applications requiring precise low current measurements without interrupting the circuit, such as troubleshooting, monitoring, and testing in electrical and electronic systems.

General Specifications

• Operating Temperature: 0ºC to 50ºC
• Power Supply: Two 9V Alkaline batteries (NEDA 1640 A)
• Battery Life: Approximately 15 hours of continuous use
• Aperture Opening: Suitable for clamping around conductors of specified sizes (exact dimensions not fully legible)

Measurement Accuracy and Influences

Accuracy: Approximately 1% of reading for DC currents.

Temperature Coefficient: The device's accuracy is influenced by ambient temperature changes; specific coefficients are provided in the detailed manual (not fully legible here).

Output

The milliammeter provides an analog output signal proportional to the measured current, enabling connection to oscilloscopes or recording devices for waveform analysis or logging.

Limitations and Considerations

• Measurement accuracy may vary with temperature and environmental conditions.
• Battery life limits continuous operation time; replacement or recharge is necessary after approximately 15 hours.
• The aperture size restricts the maximum conductor size that can be measured.
