The Metrix MX0670 is a TRMS multi-function clamp meter that combines the functions of an AC/DC multimeter with those of a current clamp. The device enables precise measurements in electrical installations with currents up to 1000 A AC. It features two independent TRMS measurement channels, which simultaneously display two measurement values on a large, backlit display with 10,000-point resolution. Measurement accuracy is maintained regardless of signal shape and type, which is particularly advantageous for non-sinusoidal currents.
Applications
This multi-function clamp meter is suitable for professional applications in electrical engineering, especially for maintenance and diagnosis of electrical installations. The high safety category of 600 V CAT IV / 1000 V CAT III makes the device suitable for measurements in distribution systems and on main lines. The combination of current and voltage measurement in a single device reduces workload and increases efficiency during fault diagnosis.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The device offers basic functions such as AC and DC voltage measurement (up to 1000 V AC and 1400 V DC), AC current (0.05 A to 1000 A), resistance (0.2 Ω to 10 kΩ), frequency (up to 10 kHz), as well as an audible continuity test and diode test. Additional functions include HOLD, PEAK, MAX/MIN, and Δ-Zero DC, which are useful for signal analysis and zero-point adjustment. Temperature measurement is performed via a K-type thermocouple in the range of -40.0 °C to 1200 °C.
Technology Explained Simply
The TRMS technology (True Root Mean Square) ensures accurate measurement even with distorted or non-sinusoidal signals, which is particularly important for modern electronic loads such as frequency converters or LED lighting. The dual display allows simultaneous display of two measurement values, for example current and voltage, which accelerates diagnosis. The jaw opening diameter of 42 mm allows measurement on cables and conductors with medium to large cross-sections.
Compatibility and Accessories
To extend functionality, various accessories are available, including test leads with 4 mm connectors (straight and angled), test probes, crocodile clips, and an electrician’s accessory set. These components are designed for use with CAT IV and CAT III safety categories and support measurement on various connection types.
Mounting and Installation
The clamp is placed directly around the conductor to be measured. The clamp is designed for easy handling, allowing measurements to be taken without interrupting the power supply. Operation is via buttons on the device, which control the various measurement functions and settings.
Operational Advantages
The combination of multimeter and clamp functions in a single device reduces the number of required measuring instruments. Simultaneous display of two measurement values accelerates diagnosis. The high safety category and TRMS technology increase the reliability of measurements, especially in complex electrical systems. The illuminated display enables use even in poorly lit environments.
