Wireless Voltage-Current Sensor - PS-4254
This sensor measures synchronized voltage and current simultaneously. These measurements also automatically calculate power and energy. All measurements are displayed live on a built-in OLED display.
Product Summary
PASCO’s Wireless Voltage-Current Sensor is a smart alternative to a traditional multimeter. It can be used as a standalone with its built-in display for quick readings or connected to a computing device to output measurements for graphical analysis with PASCO software.
The separate voltage and current ports make it easy to properly connect test leads. We strategically arranged the ports and markings to remind students to connect the current sensor in series and the voltage sensor in parallel. Having separate ports makes it possible to measure voltage and current simultaneously with both measurements synchronized, even at high sample rates. The voltage and current measurements are also used to automatically calculate and display power and energy.
When used as a standalone unit, the sensor automatically detects if a signal is DC or AC. When it detects an AC signal, the sensor displays RMS values (RMS assumes a pure sine wave). Students do not need to fiddle with range knobs since the sensor always displays its full range. You can also log data directly on the sensor for long term measurements.
