Fluke 773 Milliamp Process Clamp Meter

Fluke 773 Milliamp Process Clamp Meter saves time and money by measuring output signals without shutting down the system

The Fluke 773 milliamp clamp meter is accurate and versatile. It saves time and money by measuring 4–20 mA signals five times faster than with traditional DMMs, and without breaking the loop. That means you can troubleshoot a live device without having to power down and possibly miss something going on in the process.


Milliamp Process Clamp Meter  


The 773 is ideal for troubleshooting transmitters, valves, and programmable logic controllers (PLCs) found in process plants. It measures low level dc current and correlates process indication with a real physical value. And it measures up to 99.0 mA non-contact, including 10 to 50 mA signals in older control systems.

The 773 also sources and measures dc voltage, so it can be used to troubleshoot voltage input and output devices. You can detach the clamp section of the meter and use it as a remote jaw, connected to the main body by an extension cable to make it easier to take measurements in tight spaces. Plus, automatic power-off features save battery life so you can work longer without changing the batteries.

Other useful features:


  • Sources DC voltage to test input devices that accept a 1-5V or 0 to 10V signal
  • Simultaneously measures the mA signal with the clamp and sources a mA signal
  • Measures mA signals for PLC and control system analog I/O
  • Simulates 4-20 mA signals for testing control system I/O
  • Features a detachable clamp with extension cable for measurements in tight locations
  • Extends battery life with auto-off and backlight timeout
  • Captures and displays changing measurements with Hold function
  • Measures 4 to 20 mA signals with in-circuit measurement
  • Includes simultaneous mA in-circuit measurement with 24V loop power for powering and testing transmitters
  • Offers mA or voltage output linear ramp or 25% step output
  • Provides scaled mA output to provide a continuous mA signal that corresponds to the 4 to 20 mA signal measured by the mA clamp
  • Enables milliamp signal logging to a separate logging device without breaking the loop
  • Applies a mA input signal to a device and measure its’ 4-20 mA output on devices such as valves or mA isolators
  • Dual backlit display with both mA measurement and percent of 4 to 20 mA span
  • Measurement Spotlight to illuminate hard to see wires in dark enclosure
  • Measures 10 to 50 mA signals in older control systems using the 99.9 mA range
  • Automatically changes the 4 to 20 mA output for remote testing

R&S NRX Power Meter


The new R&S NRX power meter is equipped with a touchscreen based operating concept that guides user through configuration. For the first time, both terminating and directional power sensors are supported in a single instrument





R&S®NRX versatile, User-friendly base:

The R&S®NRX simultaneously supports up to four power sensors of the R&S®NRP and R&S®NRQ family. Function keys on the front panel provide quick access to the most important functions. Users can open the frequency setting menu or zero the connected sensors at the push of button.User-programmable save/recall memory locations allow fast access to personal settings. Presets for all major mobile radio standards,such as 3GPP LTE, 3GPP WCDMA,GSM/EDGE,WLAN and Bluetooth®,ensure correct measurement with a minimum of keystrokes.

The 5" TFT color display supports the intuitive, window based operating concept. Key parameters and functions are color-coded and can be seen at a glance Results are presented in numerical and graphical display
windows that can be easily configured.

In the continuous average, burst average, timeslot and time gate average measurement modes, up to four numerical results can be displayed in parallel. The ratio, SWR,return loss and reflection coefficient can be calculated from two measurement channels using predefined computation functions and displayed in addition to the absolute and relative power level. 

Trace measurements and statistical measurements are presented in graphical windows. The trace mode allows simultaneous display of two traces in one measurement window. Level differences and time offset can be seen at a glance and accurately measured using horizontal and vertical markers. It is also possible to display the ratio of two traces. Timeslots and time gates as well as the associated measurement values (average, peak or crest factor) can be graphically displayed in the trace window. All R&S®NRP-Z8x wideband power sensors allow automatic pulse analysis. Up to 12 of 18 user-selected pulse parameters can be displayed in addition to the measurement trace.The statistical amplitude distribution of the envelope power is shown as CCDF, CDF or PDF in a statistics window
