Fluke 1630-2 FC Offers

Eliminate the hazardous and time-consuming process of disconnecting parallel grounds with this earth-ground clamp capable of stakeless measurement. Additionally, this clamp saves time by recording and storing up to 32,760 measured values in memory at the set logging interval.

Features

• Test the grounding components of equipment in hard-to-reach spaces, including areas that are indoors or fully paved and do not permit driving auxiliary test stakes
• AC leakage current measurement: Identify AC leakage without disconnecting your earth ground stake from the grounding system–ideal for system troubleshooting
• Rugged: Heavy-duty clamp jaw stays in alignment and calibration even in every day, on-the-job industrial environments
• Alarm threshold: User-defined high/low alarm limits, for rapid measurement evaluation
• Band-pass filter: Selectable band-pass filter function removes unwanted noise from the ac leakage current measurement

Logging measurements

• The earth ground clamp saves time by automatically recording data at pre-set intervals
• Saves up to 32,760 measurements in memory at the set logging interval
• Saves time by recording and storing measured values

Wireless system

• Connects the clamp with an app on your smartphone or tablet
• You can save these measurements, and images to cloud storage and share with your team
• Maximize uptime and make confident maintenance decisions with data you can trust and trace
• Access baseline, historical and current measurements by asset
• Share your measurement data using video calls and emails

Stakeless measurement

The clamp measures earth ground loop resistances for multi-grounded systems using the dual-clamp jaw. This test technique eliminates the dangerous and time-consuming activity of disconnecting parallel grounds, as well as the process of finding suitable locations for auxiliary test stakes. You can also perform ground tests in places that were previously difficult: inside buildings, on power pylons or anywhere you don't have access to soil to place auxiliary test stakes. With this test method, a two-process measurement is made around the earth ground wire or bus bar using the specially-designed jaw of the clamp. Auxiliary test stakes are not used at all. A known voltage is induced by the source in the clamp, and the current is measured by the sensor in the clamp. The tester automatically determines the earth loop resistance for this section of the earthing system.
