Yokogawa 30032A Leakage Clamp-on Tester with a Sharp Low Pass Filter Function

Description

Yokogawa 30032A Leakage Clamp-on Tester with a Sharp Low Pass Filter Function Can measure leakage currents of 1 mA, which is useful for checking the insulation of low-voltage circuits and electrical components. Can measure a broad range of currents from leakage currents (at a resolution of 0.001 mA) to load currents up to 60 A. Typical influence (on the current value of an adjacent cable) from an external magnetic field is 0.0005%. Durability of clamp: More than 50,000 opening/closing events Twice the tensional strength of Yokogawa M&C's earlier model clamps The clamp lever is lengthened by 30%, enabling smooth opening/closing of the clamp even for thick cables of 40mm in diameter. Approved for conformity to safety standards EN 61010-1 and EN 61010-2-032 (CAT III 300V, pollution degree2)Description of Harmonic Filter FunctionHarmonic Filter Function (Only Available in the 30032A)1. What is a Harmonic?Harmonic refers to sinusoidal quantity having a frequency that is an integral multiple of the fundamental frequency (for example, the commercial frequency). When a harmonic is superimposed on the fundamental frequency, the waveform is distorted.2. Why is it Necessary to Accurately Measure the Leakage Current of the Fundamental Frequency (Commercial Frequency)?One problem when measuring the leakage current to check the isolation of electrical circuits in power distribution equipment is that the electrical isolation cannot be correctly understood due to the influence of a harmonic current. That is, the leakage current flowing from the electrical circuit to ground is very small so that, in order to check the isolation of electrical circuits by means of the leakage current, it is necessary to remove the harmonic component of the leak current and measure only the current of the fundamental frequency (commercial frequency).3.
