General Specifications
The Klein Tools CL200 is a multi-featured clamp meter. It measures
AC / DC voltage, AC current, resistance, capacitance, frequency, duty cycle,
and temperature. It can also test diodes and continuity.
• Operating Altitude: 2000 meters
• Relative Humidity: 75% max
• Operating Temperature: 0°C / 32°F to 40°C / 104°F
• Storage Temperature: -10°C / 14°F to 50°C / 122°F
• Accuracy Temperature: 18°C / 64°F to 28°C / 82°F
• Temperature Coefficient: 0.1*(specified accuracy) / °C
• Sampling Frequency: 3 samples per second
• Dimensions: 8.2" x 3.0" x 1.4"
• Weight: 10.0 oz.
• Calibration: Accurate for one year
• CAT Rating: CAT III 600V
• Accuracy: ± (% of reading + # of least significant digits)
WARNINGS
To ensure safe operation and service of the tester, follow these instructions.
Failure to observe these warnings can result in severe injury or death.
• Before each use, verify meter operation by measuring
a known voltage or current.
• Never use the meter on a circuit with voltages that exceed the
category based rating of this meter.
• Do not use the meter during electrical storms, or in wet weather.
• Do not use the meter or test leads if they appear to be damaged.
• Ensure meter leads are fully seated, and keep fingers away from
the metal probe contacts when making measurements.
• Do not open the meter to replace batteries while the probes
are connected.
• Use caution when working with voltages above 60V DC,
or 25V AC RMS. Such voltages pose a shock hazard.
• To avoid false readings that can lead to electrical shock,
replace batteries if a low battery indicator appears.
• Unless measuring voltage or current, shut off and lock out
power before measuring resistance or capacitance.
• Always adhere to local and national safety codes. Use individual
protective equipment to prevent shock and arc blast injury where
hazardous live conductors are exposed.
