FLIR CM57-2 Flexible Clamp Meter
- Comes complete with Bluetooth and 18 inch flexi-clamp
The FLIR CM57-2 is an 18-inch flexible clamp meter designed to measure current in tight or hard-to-reach spaces. Instead of using rigid jaws, it features a flexible Rogowski coil that wraps easily around large or oddly shaped conductors like bus bars or bundled cables. This makes it perfect for industrial or electrical maintenance jobs where regular clamp meters can‘t fit.
- Fits anywhere: The 45 cm (18-inch) coil can loop around conductors in cramped panels or large cables that standard clamps can‘t handle. This helps technicians avoid shutting down or disassembling equipment—saving time and effort.
- Wireless monitoring: With Bluetooth and the FLIR METERLiNK app, you can stream and log current readings on your phone or tablet from up to 10 meters away. You can also track multiple circuits, set alarms, and generate reports without being near high-voltage gear.
- Reliable and safe: The CM57-2 gives accurate True RMS readings, even for non-linear loads. It includes a clear remote display with controls for hold, min/max, and zeroing. With CAT IV-600V safety rating and a tough, insulated coil, it’s built for demanding work.
FLIR CM57-2 Key Features:
- Snake the coil around obstacles with ease, even in deep, crowded cabinets
- Wrap the 18-inch flexible coil clamp around multiple conductors or large cables
- True RMS AC Current up to 3,000 Amps for multiple conductor measurements
- Inrush current function for equipment start-up spikes
