The Digital Ammeter and Shunt Test Kit is a calibrated reference meter for the verification of magnetic particle equipment performance. The kit includes a calibrated digital ammeter that captures the ½-second mag shot and provides AC RMS or DC Average amperage readings. The ammeter is capable of measuring AC, HWDC, and FWDC waveforms up to 10,000 amps with an accuracy of +/-3% in AC mode or +/-2% in DC mode. The kit includes a calibrated reference shunt with leads to connect to the ammeter. Includes portable storage case.
This kit is specifically designed to accurately measure magnetizing current generated by Magnaflux magnetizing equipment. Equipment from other manufacturers may use different current control techniques, so the Digital Ammeter & Shunt may not give accurate readings for non-Magnaflux equipment.
