The FLIR CM78-PV is designed for both commercial and industrial electrical inspections. It supports solar photovoltaic (PV) DC measurements up to 1,500 V using test leads, and handles up to 1,000 A DC or AC via the clamp jaw for DC Power measurements. The device is equipped with features such as Inrush AC current, variable frequency drive (VFD) mode, True RMS, and Low Impedance (LoZ) mode to meet advanced electrical testing and measurement needs. The built-in non-contact infrared thermometer aids in troubleshooting panels, conduits, and motors allowing for issue diagnosis and confirmation through contact measurements or by capturing intermittent faults with its datalogging function. Additionally, the Bluetooth FLIR METERLiNK technology enables wireless connection to the METERLiNK app on mobile devices, facilitating instant documentation, reporting, and sharing of results from the field.
The FLIR PV48 is a highly effective tool engineered to assess the maximum power and efficiency of solar panels. It quickly measures critical parameters such as maximum power, voltage, current, open-circuit voltage (VOC), short-circuit current (ISC), and ambient temperature. With its I-V curve tracer, it offers intuitive and visual analysis of up to 800W per panel, ensuring peak solar panel performance. The device features a built-in lithium ion battery and a large high-contrast LCD screen that remains easily readable even in direct sunlight. The included MC4 PV plugs and clips simplify the process of diagnosing and troubleshooting solar panels, making it both straightforward and efficient.
The FLIR PV78 is designed for solar site surveys, panel installation, and maintenance of photovoltaic systems. It allows for instant measurements to determine solar (irradiance in watts per square meter) as required by IEC 62446-1 Electrical Safety of PV installations standard. You can measure temperature by placing the meter directly on the panel or by connecting an external probe for continuous measurements. The device also includes a compass to find the predominant direction and a tilt function to verify the inclination of a roof or panel. With FLIR METERLiNK Bluetooth technology, you can wirelessly connect to the METERLiNK app on mobile devices, enabling instantaneous documentation, reporting, and sharing of results from the field.
