Weidmüller Measuring instruments
weidmuller measuring instruments overview for panel shops and field service
This category groups the essentials for commissioning, maintenance and troubleshooting: handheld meters for volts/amps/ohms, clamp meters for live feeders, two-pole testers for safe verification, insulation and continuity testers for cables and motors, plus accessories like leads, probes and cases. Weidmüller structures the range by job type (installation check, service diagnostics, calibration), safety category (CAT III/CAT IV), and display style (basic LCD, backlit, bargraph). Buyers are panel builders, OEMs, utilities and MRO teams who need reliable readings, rugged housings and SKUs that stay consistent across fleets.
weidmuller multimeters families and specs that matter
Expect compact service meters for everyday DC rails and PLC I/O, mid-tier true-RMS units with frequency and duty cycle for drives, and advanced models that add low-ohm, diode, temperature and min/max logging. Clamp versions cover AC, DC or both, with flexible Rogowski probes for tight MCCs. Most distributors stock kits with silicone leads, crocodile clips, a soft case and spare fuses; AA or 9 V cells are included to get crews working on day one.
weidmuller voltage testers and safe verification tools
Two-pole testers with bright LEDs, LCD readout and vibration feedback verify presence/absence of voltage even with gloves on. Phase rotation and single-pole phase detection speed motor swaps. Non-contact pens handle quick checks around cabinets and cable trays. Common packaging is single units with probe caps and a belt clip—ideal for site operators.
Product range and series overview
- Handheld meters: basic, true-RMS and logging variants for control panels and drives.
- Clamp meters: 400–1000 A ranges, AC/DC, in standard and slim jaws for cramped feeders.
- Installation testers: insulation resistance (typically up to 1000 V), continuity with fast beeper, and loop impedance where required.
- Accessories: silicone lead sets, magnetic straps, crocodile clips, probe extenders, fuses and protective holsters.
Fast movers are true-RMS handhelds with 6000–10,000 count displays, 600 V CAT III ratings, and 400 A AC/DC clamps.
Key features and ordering specs
- Safety category. CAT III 600/1000 V for panels; CAT IV at service entrances—pick to match the work zone.
- Accuracy and functions. True-RMS, low-impedance (LoZ) mode to kill ghost voltages, fast continuity, and temperature input for drives and heaters.
- Display and logging. Backlit screens, bargraph trend, hold/min/max; select logging where shift reports matter.
- Build and protection. IP-rated housings, rubber overmoulds, drop-tested; ceramic fuses on high-energy ranges.
- Leads and tips. Silicone insulation stays flexible in cold rooms; GS-rated tips reduce slip accidents.
- Power and upkeep. AA/9 V cells or rechargeable packs; field-replaceable fuses and boots keep downtime low.
Applications and compatibility
Use during FAT/SAT, MCC commissioning, VFD troubleshooting, HVAC service, pump stations, packaging lines and utility rooms. Meters ride alongside Weidmüller push-in terminals, 24 V power supplies, relays and DIN-rail breakers in the same service cart. For basket building, add ferrule kits, marker sleeves, cable glands and PE terminals—crews finish wiring checks and documentation in one pass. Many procurement teams list these under weidmuller electrical meters for clarity on stocking and calibration cycles.
Integration with other Weidmüller products
Magnetic meter straps grab the same steel doors as your Weidmüller cabinets; compact clamps fit between TS35 rails and wire duct. Temperature probes verify PSU and drive compartments specified with the brand’s power distribution gear. Lead tip diameters match common terminal test points, and the carry cases slip into service kits alongside ferrules and crimpers.
Selection criteria for B2B clients
- Safety and category. Match CAT rating to the highest fault level you’ll encounter; err up, not down.
- Measurement scope. Everyday service needs V/A/Ω, continuity and True-RMS; add temperature and low-ohm for drives and heaters.
- Form factor. Slim clamps for dense MCCs; handhelds with kickstands for benches; two-pole testers for lockout verification.
- Environment. IP and drop specs matter in washdown or outdoor yards; backlight and large digits help in dim cabinets.
- Fleet management. Choose models with common leads and fuses, plus serials that are easy to log for calibration.
- Kit completeness. Order meter + silicone leads + clips + spare fuses + holster together to avoid second trips to stores.
