New Fluke Milliamp Clamp Meters Help Process Techs, Electricians and Automation Specialists Save Time and Money

EVERETT, WA, Jun 01 (MARKET WIRE) --
Fluke Corporation, the global leader in portable electronic test and
measurement technology, has introduced two new milliamp (mA) clamp meters
designed to help technicians test critical automation and control
circuits without breaking the circuit or interrupting operations.

The new Fluke 772 and 773 Milliamp Clamp Meters join the Fluke 771 to
deliver a comprehensive range of test and measurement capabilities. Now
technicians in process plants, industrial plants, commercial buildings
and automation commissioning teams can choose exactly the range of
capabilities they need, at a price that makes sense.

These precision tools are designed for instrumentation technicians,
contractors and process vendors who install and commission instruments,
process and automation technicians, commercial electricians and automation
specialists who do mA loop troubleshooting on process control circuits,
instruments and automation I/O.

The Fluke 771, 772 and 773 Milliamp Clamp Meters are engineered to
accurately measure the minute amounts of current (4 to 20 mA signals) that
flow through control system circuits, without having to shut down the
system, break the circuit and insert a test instrument. Instead, sensitive
current clamps placed on the wire detect and measure the current flowing
through. Fluke is the only manufacturer making process mA clamp meters
that don't break the loop.

The result can be a significant savings in time and money that is more
important than ever in tough economic times. Fluke estimates that a
technician could save about $588 to $1038 a month, based on estimated
hourly rates and the amount of time saved, using the Fluke 77x Milliamp
Clamp Meters.

All models feature:

-- mA measure without breaking the loop.
-- Simultaneous mA and % Span readings.
-- 0.01 mA resolution on 20 mA applications.
-- Detachable jaw.
-- Built-in flashlight.
-- IP 40 rating.
