CLAMP METER PM2018A PM2018A

Product Description

The PEAKMETER PM2018B is a compact, auto-ranging digital clamp meter designed for precise electrical measurements in professional and DIY settings. Featuring a 6000-count dual LCD with backlight and flashlight, it measures AC/DC voltage, AC current, resistance, capacitance, frequency, continuity, and temperature, with non-contact voltage (NCV) detection for safety. Its 26mm clamp width and low-pass filter (LPF) enhance AC signal accuracy, making it ideal for HVAC, automotive, and industrial applications. Lightweight and durable, it includes true RMS, data hold, and auto power-off, meeting CAT III 600V safety standards.

Best Uses

• Measuring AC current in HVAC, automotive, or industrial equipment without breaking circuits
• Troubleshooting electrical systems in workshops, factories, or homes
• Non-contact voltage detection for safe identification of live wires
• Testing resistance, capacitance, frequency, and temperature in electronics labs

Usage Notes

• Battery Installation: Insert 2 x 1.5V AAA batteries with correct polarity before use.
• NCV Detection: Position clamp near wires to detect AC voltage without contact.
• LPF Function: Use for accurate AC measurements by filtering high-frequency interference.
• Safety: Do not exceed 600V input; use CAT III-rated probes for high-voltage tasks.
• Maintenance: Store in a dry, cool place; avoid dropping to maintain accuracy.
