AC/DC Current Probe Model SL306

The SL306 AC/DC Current Probe – a compact Hall-effect current clamp designed to measure both AC and DC currents with high accuracy. The probe's narrow jaws are designed to easily clamp around conductors in tight, crowded wiring spaces, allowing for non-intrusive current measurements without breaking the circuit, making it ideal for industrial and automotive environments. It offers dual sensitivity settings, enabling precise measurements from just a few milliamps up to 80 A, with a 20 kHz bandwidth.

Key Features:

  • Measurement Range: Capable of measuring current from 5 mA to 1.5 AAC | 2ADC; 50 mA to 60 AAC | 80ADC
  • Load Impedance: A minimum input impedance of >1 MΩ and ≤ 100 pF.
  • Easy Reset: Quickly reset the probe with the push of a button.
  • Range Overload Indicator: Visual warning for overload conditions to ensure safe operation.
  • Power Supply Indicator: Stay aware of the probe’s power status at a glance.
  • Automatic Standby Mode: Prolongs battery life, enhancing efficiency in the field.
  • Jaw Capacity: Accommodates up to a single 4/0 AWG 0.5 in (11.8 mm) diameter conductor, providing flexibility for various applications.
  • Category Ratings: Suitable for installations rated up to 600 V CAT III and 300 V CAT IV.
 

Versatile Power Options

Powered by an internal battery or a standard 5V DC power adapter via its micro-USB port, the SL306 features automatic DC zero adjustment and a built-in standby function to extend battery life. The SL306 adapts to your power preferences, ensuring it’s ready whenever you are.

Universal Compatibility

The AC/DC Current Probe Model SL306 is universally compatible. Its cord is equipped with 2 insulated male banana plugs allowing it to be connected to and compatible with any  AEMC® and non-AEMC® digital multimeters, voltmeters, or any voltage-measuring instruments.
