Recordable wireless test tool system

February 2016 Industrial Wireless

Fluke has introduced the Fluke CNX, a customisable, troubleshooting set of wireless test tools that work together to record live measurements remotely and simultaneously on a single screen. CNX modules measure AC voltage, temperature and AC current with a standard or a flex clamp. Possible applications include:

• Detection of power interruptions.

• Single phase measurement.

• Determining current imbalance.

• Measurement of incoming current.

A wireless multimeter displays readings from up to three wireless modules plus the meter measurement, at the same time and on the same screen. To get an holistic overview of the situation, readings from 10 tools can be reviewed simultaneously on PC View. Users are able to mix and match the wireless-enabled modules to suit their unique measurement needs.

The CNX system can record up to 65 000 sets of min/max/avg readings in either single or multiple logging sessions. CNX isolates intermittent events or records signal fluctuations automatically, using the module’s log function. Measurements can be viewed in a location separate from the point of measurement for safety purposes, as well as viewed repeatedly from either remote locations or on-site.

Fluke CNX meets Category 1000 V CAT III and Category IV 600 V safety standards.
