The Megger DPM1000 (1013-356) True RMS AC/DC Power Clamp Meter combines the functionality of power meter, harmonics meter and data logger in one easy to use package. The design meets the requirements of BSEN 61010-1 CAT IV 600V for supply side applications. A large backlit LCD clearly displays all measurements, turning on at the touch of a button or when rotating the selection dial. It also automatically switches off to save battery consumption.

The DPM1000 can measure DC, AC, pulsed and mixed currents up to 1000 A simply by clamping the jaws around the appropriate conductor, whilst voltages up to 1000V AC or DC may be measured by the supplied test leads. Where power measurements are to be made both techniques above are performed simultaneously. Power related parameters include energy consumption, frequency, total harmonic distortion, distortion factor and capacitance. It features auto-ranging and has 3 phase rotation indication.

The DPM1000 measures single and 3-phase active power and power factor, and the harmonic content of the signal can be displayed up to the 25th harmonic. Temperature measurements can be made up 1000°C using the thermocouple provided.

The DPM1000 is ideally suited to measuring mains power quality and applications in the development, installation, maintenance and repair of equipment and devices used in power electronics and power engineering. The unit has an internal torch that lights during the operation of the clamp and automatic non-contact voltage detection for identification of live circuits.

The DPM1000 may be used to perform data logging to its internal non-volatile memory. You can record a maximum of 9999 readings/records to the memory over a period of time and download the data to produce graphs and reports. The record rate can be set from 1 sec to 600 sec. The accuracy of the timer is within 3 seconds per hour.

The meter uses low-power Bluetooth v4.0 wireless technology to transfer real-time data to the free Megger LinkTM app, available for both iOS and Android. The maximum communication range in open air is approximately 10 m. This function is invalid for Inrush and Phase Rotation.

The DPM1000 is supplied complete with test leads and a thermocouple probe in full-sized carry case.
