An electrical meter with integral AC current clamp is known as a clamp meter, clamp-on ammeter, tong tester, or colloquially as an amp clamp. A clamp meter measures the vector sum of the currents flowing in all the conductors passing through the probe, which depends on the phase relationship of the currents. Only one conductor is normally ...
Fluke Corporation is an American manufacturer of industrial test, measurement, and diagnostic equipment, including electronic test equipment. It was started in 1948 by John Fluke while he was employed at General Electric .
A clamp meter. Any meter will load the circuit under test to some extent. For example, a multimeter using a moving coil movement with full-scale deflection current of 50 microamps (μA), the highest sensitivity commonly available, must draw at least 50 μA from the circuit under test for the meter to reach the top end of its scale. This may ...
A negative clamp is the opposite of this—this clamp outputs a purely negative waveform from an input signal. A bias voltage between the diode and ground offsets the output voltage by that amount. For example, an input signal of peak value 5 V (V INpeak = 5 V) is applied to a positive clamp with a bias of 3 V (V BIAS = 3 V), the peak output ...
Top: Pipe clamp; Upper row: F-clamp or bar clamp, one-handed bar clamp ("Quick Grip"), wooden handscrew; Lower row: spring clamp, C-clamp (G-clamp ), wooden cam clamp. A clamp is a fastening device used to hold or secure objects tightly together to prevent movement or separation through the application of inward pressure.
Clamp (tool), a device or tool used to hold objects in a fixed relative position (many types listed) C-clamp; C-clamp (stagecraft) Riser clamp, a device used to support vertical piping; Nipple clamp, a sex toy; Storage clamp, an agricultural root crop storage; Wheel clamp, a device used with road vehicles to prevent theft or enforce parking ...
The "patch-clamp" technique allows the study of individual ion channels. It uses an electrode with a relatively large tip (> 1 micrometer) that has a smooth surface (rather than a sharp tip). This is a "patch-clamp electrode" (as distinct from a "sharp electrode" used to impale cells).
Measuring combination of an automatic refractometer and a density meter as widely used in the flavors and fragrances industry Today's laboratories do not only want to measure the refractive index of samples, but several additional parameters like density or viscosity to perform efficient quality control.
