CLAMP METER FLIR CM78-PV
FLIR CM78-PV – Photovoltaic Clamp Meter (CAT III 1500 V)
The FLIR CM78-PV is a versatile measurement tool for photovoltaic systems that combines a powerful clamp meter, photovoltaic power measurement, and an infrared thermometer into one device. It is specifically designed for solar installers and maintenance technicians who require accurate and safe measurements in systems up to 1500 V DC.
Key Features:- Photovoltaic system performance measurement: measures voltage, current, and power up to 1500 V DC / 1500 kVA (CAT III 1500 V).
- An integrated IR thermometer enables rapid detection of overheated connections, wires, and components without contact.
- Accurate measurements using TRMS technology, plus specialized VFD (variable frequency drive) and LoZ (low impedance for noise reduction) modes.
- METERLiNK® connectivity via Bluetooth enables wireless transfer and documentation of measurement data using the FLIR Meterlink App.
- Includes CAT III 1500 V test leads and MC4-PV connectors suitable for direct measurement of solar panels and strings.
