clamp meter BE44
3. Repeatedly press the measuring range button(33) to select
the desired measuring range.
ð The resolution in the measurement value display(24)
will change accordingly.
4. Tap the desired measuring points of the electric circuit
with the test probes(11) at the measuring cables with
correct polarity.
ð The measured value will be displayed in the
measurement value display(24).
Example:
Please proceed as follows to measure the ACvoltage:
1. Connect the black measuring cable(14) to the
COMconnection(7) and the red measuring cable(13) to
the Input connection(6).
2. Turn the rotary switch(3) to position36.
3. Press the function button(34).
ð The alternating current icon is displayed in the
alternating current indication(26) on the display.
4. Repeatedly press the measuring range button(33) to select
the desired measuring range.
ð The resolution in the measurement value display(24)
will change accordingly.
5. Tap the desired measuring points of the electric circuit
with the test probes(11) at the measuring cables.
ð The measured value will be displayed in the
measurement value display(24).
Example:
Non-contact voltage detection
Info
Observe the specifications in the technical data.
Even if the device does not show any response, there
might still be a voltage outside the device's measuring
range.
Without contact the device detects whether alternating voltage
is present.
To do so, please proceed as follows:
1. Turn the rotary switch(3) to the NCVmeasurement
position(35).
ð The NCVsensor flashes briefly and the device emits an
acoustic signal.
2. Move the device clamp toward the object to be tested.
ð If the device detects an electrical field combined with an
alternating voltage, an acoustic signal will be emitted
repeatedly and the NCVsensor(10) flashes.
ð The stronger the measured electrical field, the more
frequently will the acoustic signal be emitted.
ð Depending on the strength of the measured electrical
field one to four segments will appear in the
measurement value display(24).
Current measurement
Warning of electrical voltage
Risk of electric shock and risk of injury!
• For current measurements align the conductor to be tested
in the centre of the clamp.
• When performing non-contact measurements, disconnect
the measuring cables from the device.
