1.1 STANDARD MODELS IN A A100 SERIES
A100 Series AmpFLEX probes make up a range of nine standard models which enable the
measurement of alternating current from 0.5 A to 10 kA at industrial frequencies. Each probe
is of a flexible air-core type (45 cm, 80 cm or 120 cm) attached by a shielded cable to a small
box housing the integrator circuit and a standard 9 V battery.
Their flexibility means that they can be attached to any type of conductor for measurement
(including cables, busbars and stranded conductors), regardless of its accessibility. Because
of the latch-type design of the air-core's open/close mechanism, it is appropriate to use gloves
when operating it.
The box is fitted with a two-position switch (single range) or a three-position switch (dual range)
and two LED diodes. One indicates that the device is in use (green LED), and the other warns
when the integrator circuit is overloaded (red LED).
Probes can be connected to any multimeter, tester, recorder, etc. fitted with an alternating
voltage input with an impedance over 1 MΩ (AC mode without a DC component). They have
reinforced insulation and comply with international standards, particularly IEC 1010-1.
