AEMC SL206 Data sheet

AC/DC Current Probe
Model SL206

The Model SL206 is designed for AC/DC
current measurement capabilities using
Hall effect technology. It measures
from a 10mA to over 80A.

The “screw driver” shape, with its
narrow elongated prod, was chosen
to permit probing in crowded cable
bundles, or measuring in tight areas
such as on circuit boards, motor
controllers and automotive circuitry.

The electronics and batteries are self­ contained in the handles. It is an
excellent companion to DMMs,
recorders and loggers, oscilloscopes
and waveform displaying instruments.
Low phase shift also insures reliable
power and power quality measurements.

The Model SL206 is very familiar with
two mV ranges. The SL206 provides
higher sensitivity for lower level signal
measurements.

Features

• Low AC and DC measurements

• 10mA to 80A – AC/DC in 2 ranges

• Unique design for probing in

crowded wiring in industrial and
automotive environments

• Hall effect sensor technology

• Use with DMMs, voltmeters

and other voltage measuring
instruments

Applications

• Circuit board testing

• Motor controllers

• Automotive circuitry
