Features

  • Two-range Hall effect probe measuring both AC and DC current
  • Low range: up to 100 Aac, 150 Adc at 10 mV/A
  • High range: up to 1000 Aac, 1400 Adc at 1 mV/A
  • Wider jaw for cables up to 0.94 in (24 mm) and bus bars
  • Bandwidth DC to 30 kHz (-3 dB, depending on current value); phase shift 2.2 degrees or less at 40 A
  • Automatic DC zero on both ranges; internal temperature compensation
  • Power: 9 V alkaline battery (about 50 hours typical) or 5 V micro-USB Type B; low battery and overload LEDs
  • Double-insulated 5 ft (1.5 m) lead with two 4 mm safety banana plugs; 600 V CAT III

Applications

  • High-current AC and DC measurement on feeders, switchgear, and bus bars
  • DC power systems, battery banks, and charging infrastructure
  • Variable speed drives and power electronics, with the low range for smaller loads
  • Bench and field measurement with DMMs and data loggers up to 600 V CAT III

  • Replaces: Model MR521 (Cat. #1200.69)

The AEMC MR526 is the highest-range probe in the MR family, and it measures both AC and DC, which a transformer-type probe cannot do. Two switchable ranges cover a wide span: the 10 mV/A low range resolves up to 100 Aac and 150 Adc, and the 1 mV/A high range reaches 1000 Aac and 1400 Adc. Its wider jaw takes larger cables (up to 0.94 in, 24 mm) and bus bars, which is what high-current feeders and switchgear need.

The probe follows DC to 30 kHz (-3 dB, depending on current value), with automatic DC zero on both ranges and internal temperature compensation. It runs on a 9 V battery (about 50 hours typical) or a 5 V micro-USB source, with LEDs for low battery and overload, and outputs to a DMM or data logger through a 5 ft lead with 4 mm safety banana plugs.

The MR526 suits high-current AC and DC measurement on feeders, switchgear, drives, and DC power systems, with the low range available when you need resolution on smaller loads. It replaces the discontinued Model MR521.
