Product Details
FLIR VT8-1000 Voltage, Current and Continuity Tester
From FLIR, the true RMS VT8-1000 clamp meter with a 200A /1000V measuring range. The superior instrument is perfect for electricians, technicians and engineers for verification and troubleshooting. Typically, within the commercial and light industrial sectors.
Ergonomically designed, the clamp meter is comfortably operated with one hand. With a 15.5mm fixed jaw clamp, amperage measurements are easily taken in tight spaces, the optimised jaw design also caters for larger diameter cables. A handy built-in test lead holder on the back of the instrument safely stores leads when not in use.
With built-in bright LED worklights, the FLIR VT8-1000 clamp meter provides extra illumination for environments with very little or no light. Readings are clearly visible on the large multifunction backlit LCD display, ideal for dark cabinets and panels.
Compact and lightweight the FLIR VT8-1000 clamp meter is extremely easy to operate. Robust, sturdy and built to last this professional all-in-one tool is the essential instrument for every engineer.
