1 Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a flexible clamp meter PCE-CM 4 from PCE Instruments.

The flexible clamp meter PCE-CM 4 is a high quality meter for the measuring of current: It’s possible to

measure current at inaccessible electric conductors. The flexible clamp meter PCE-CM 4 has a

measuring range up to 400 A. The meter is easy to handle. You can control the device with three buttons

and one rotary switch. The meter is able to measure minimum and maximum readings. The HOLD-

function allows freezing the data. The LCD-display has 4 digits, which means a high accuracy. The small

and handy device promises a wide range of possibilities in any environment.

2 Safety notes

Always de-energize the circuit under test before installing flexible probe measuring head. Always inspect

the electronics unit, connecting cable and flexible probe for damage before using this product.

Exercise extreme caution, when measuring live system with voltage greater than 60V DC or 30V AC.

To avoid false readings, replace the battery as soon as possible, when the battery symbol appears.

The device may only be used in approved temperature range

The opening of the case should only be done by qualified personnel of the PCE Instruments.

The instrument should never be placed with the user interface (e.g. keyboard side on a table)

You should not make technical changes on the device

The appliance should only be cleaned with a damp cloth / use only pH-neutral cleaner
