Micro Ohmmeters

A Low resistance measurement is typically a measurement below 1.000 ohm. At this level it is important to use test equipment that will minimize errors introduced by the test lead resistance and/or contact resistance between the probe and the material being tested.
Low Resistance measurements are requested to prevent long term damage to existing equipment and to minimizing energy wasted as heat. These meters indicate any restrictions in current flow that might prevent a machine from generating its full power, or allow insufficient current to flow to activate protective devices in the case of a fault.

Low Resistance measurements are requested to prevent long term damage to existing equipment and to minimizing energy wasted as heat. These meters indicate any restrictions in current flow that might prevent a machine from generating its full power, or allow insufficient current to flow to activate protective devices in the case of a fault.
Features:
- Measures from 0.001mΩ (1µΩ resolution) to 2500.0Ω
- Test current selection from: 1mA, 10mA, 100mA, 1A and 10A
- RTD temperature probe to check tested sample (optional)
- Selectable metal types
- Automatic and manual temperature correction
- EMF levels measured and eliminated in measurement
- Two programmable alarm set points
- Stores up to 1500 test results
- Selectable Inductive and Resistance test modes
- Automatic multiple test mode (multiple tests without pressing the button)
- Large multi-line electroluminescent display
- Local or remote test setup and control
Understanding Low resistance measurement and how to interpret the results of these meters will help operators determine when degradation is taking place between two contact points.
