FLIR PV-KIT-2 Photovoltaic Measurement Kit with CM78 Clamp Meter and TG165 Thermal Camera

The FLIR PV-KIT-2 pairs a 1000 A True RMS clamp meter with an 80 x 60 thermal camera to give solar installers and maintenance crews a single kit for electrical and thermal diagnostics on photovoltaic systems. Unlike separate purchases, this kit combines the CM78's Bluetooth METERLiNK connectivity and CAT IV-600 V safety rating with the TG165's spot IR imaging in one soft carrying case.

Highlights

• CM78 clamp meter measures AC/DC current up to 1000 A and voltage up to 1000 V
• TG165 thermal camera with 4800-pixel IR resolution and -25°C to 380°C range
• Bluetooth METERLiNK for wireless data sharing to mobile devices
• Includes test leads, alligator clips, and soft carrying case

In daily use

On a rooftop or at an inverter, the CM78's 42 mm jaw opens wide enough for common PV conductors, while its True RMS ensures accurate readings on non-linear loads. The TG165's 50° x 38.6° field of view and <150 mK sensitivity help spot hot cells or loose connections quickly, with images stored to a micro SD card for reporting.
