CLCE-252

Broadband RF Monitor Probe

CLCE-252 RF Current Probe is a split-core current probe designed for conducted emission and immunity testing, accommodating cable bundles up to 2 inches in diameter. It features a rugged hinged enclosure with split-core ferrite, allowing easy placement around cables or wire bundles for convenient testing. The probe measures current inductively by clamping around the line under test, operating as a toroidal transformer. The output voltage is measured across a 50 Ω input impedance and converted to current using the probe’s transfer impedance factor.

Features

Key capabilities and advantages

  • Wide Frequency Range from 9 kHz to 230 MHz for versatile RF testing.
  • Large 2-inch aperture fits thick cable bundles up to 52 mm.
  • Split-core design enables easy, non-intrusive clamping on cables.
  • Compliance-ready for CISPR 15/25/32, IEC 61000-4-6, MIL-STD-461, and RTCA DO-160 standards.
  • NIST-traceable calibration included with optional ISO 17025 certification.
  • High current handling supports up to 150A DC and 90A AC (50/60 Hz).
  • Compatible with Com-Power’s FCLCE-452 Calibration Fixture and SPA-932TG Spectrum Analyzer.
