August 27, 2012. Yokogawa Corp. of America has announced the release of the CL420 clamp-on process meter. The CL420 will safely measure 0- to 20-mA DC process-control signals without breaking the loop. Typical application examples include distributed control systems, programmable logic controllers, pressure and temperature transmitters, and loop-powered isolators and indicators.
Features of the Yokogawa CL420 include
• 0.2% accuracy and 0.01 mA resolution from 0 to 20 mA DC,
• milliampere and percent of span readout,
• dual LCD numeric display,
• LED torch light,
• data hold function,
• 6-mm clamp diameter, and
• Available analog output.
The Yokogawa CL420 is complementary to the vendor's existing portfolio of calibrators, such as the CA11 loop calibrator, CA71 and CA150 multifunction calibrators, and the CA450 process meter. The analog output can be used as an input to the XL120 data logger, TY500/700 multimeters, or chart recorders. Suggested list price is $625.
