Clamp Meters
The clamp meter is ideal for measuring AC or DC voltage. The instrument is irreplaceable for inspection work and maintenance in various industrial applications, in research and development, in residential applications and in many small businesses or households. The PCE line of clamp meter is made according to the highest industry standards and very important: PCE offers instruments that are usable in all workspaces (equipped with very small or even very large jaws), the results are reliable and the clamps are easy to use. Every clamp meter is manufacturer calibrated and can be certified to ISO or NIST - hold a PCE clamp meter in your hands and you can feel the quality immediately.PCE offers a variety of models: Voltage detector, voltage leak detector, voltage power detector, metric detector and current detector. In addition many clamp meters are able to measure other parameters, such as capacity, resistance and power - power through clamps directly or by handheld digital instruments with external clamps (with a range of one or three stages). Very often the clamp meter is a real multimeter - so it becomes a general electrical measurement tool.

Air Flow Meters
An Air Flow Meter measures air velocity as well as air pressure. Depending on the type of application, the Air Flow Meter is made as a hot-wire Air Flow Meter, a vane Air Flow Meter, a cup anemometer, a Pitot tube air flow meter or a pocket weather flow meter, all of which can measure air velocity as well as air pressure. Some can even detect the wind direction. The most common unit of measurement for air flow is m/s.Air Flow Meters are basically mass flow meters, as they determine the air velocity and air pressure by measuring the mass flow of a medium, which is air in this case.The results of measuring the air velocity can be stored in the Air Flow Meter's memory, depending on the model. There are a lot of Air Flow Meters available. The air flow meter is ideal for taking quick or constant measurements including monitoring of ventilation installations, process checking, industrial applications, use in private workshops or by nautical enthusiasts or for other hobbies, etc.At PCE, you can find the right air flow meter to use indoors and outdoors. An optional ISO calibration certificate is available for many of the devices.

Roughness Testers
Roughness is an important parameter when trying to find out whether a surface is suitable for a certain purpose. Rough surfaces often wear out more quickly than smoother surfaces. Rougher surfaces are normally more vulnerable to corrosion and cracks, but they can also aid in adhesion. A roughness tester is used to quickly and accurately determine the surface texture or surface roughness of a material. A roughness tester shows the measured roughness depth (Rz) as well as the mean roughness value (Ra) in micrometers or microns (µm). Measuring the roughness of a surface involves applying a roughness filter. Different international standards and surface texture or surface finish specifications recommend the use of different roughness filters. For example, a Gaussian filter often is recommended in ISO standards.

LAN Network Testers
A cable detector can locate open power cables, either live or without current, up to 300 V. A cable detector can locate cables, circuits, short circuits and ground wires. To perform these functions, it is not always necessary to disconnect electrically sensitive devices or to disconnect the power to the cable being tested.Many cable detector devices can also locate ferrous and non-ferrous metals, wood and plastic with high degrees of accuracy. A cable detector provides a safe way to test wall sockets for which no electrical plans or wiring information is available about the cables or their output. A cable detector is very versatile, as it ensures speed and safety when making holes in walls, ceilings and floors.

Anemometers
An anemometer measures wind speed. Indoors, an anemometer measures air speed, air velocity or air flow. The air flow rate in buildings is often measured in cubic feet per minute (CFM) using anemometers to assess the performance of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems and equipment.PCE Instruments (PCE) offers a variety of anemometer products to meet the air flow and wind speed measurement needs of professionals in industries such as HVAC, construction, marine and wind power and energy, including hot-wire anemometers, thermo anemometers, pitot tube anemometers, cup anemometers, rotating vane anemometers and impeller anemometers with capture hoods. Plus, hobbyists such as boating, sailing and water sports enthusiasts utilize PCE's accurate and affordable digital handheld anemometer and portable mini anemometer product offerings to evaluate outdoor wind conditions. For meteorological measurements, please see PCE's weather station products.

Regulators
Regulator / process controller are small intelligent installations which consist of a sensor input, a digital indicator and a regulation output. There are regulators for diverse measurement works. Regulators are set through its own keys. Nominal values can be established to define the regulation process. Some regulators have also available a regulation output for normalized signals output which can be connected to a display system to control this process.

Hygrometers
A hygrometer is a device used to measure humidity. Many hygrometer products also measure temperature. A hygrometer that measures both humidity and temperature often is referred to as a thermo-hygrometer. PCE Instruments (PCE) offers a wide variety of hygrometer products used to measure the relative humidity of the air.Since humidity is an important factor in many sectors including but not limited to manufacturing, agriculture, construction, restoration, remediation and heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), PCE also carries a number of hygrometer devices designed for specific applications such as measuring the humidity in bales of pressed hay or in rolls of paper. A hygrometer also can be used to evaluate heat stress risk in hot work environments like boiler rooms, factories, construction sites and commercial bakeries. To accurately assess heat stress risk, a hygrometer capable of detecting and classifying temperature in relation to the amount of moisture content in the air is recommended. The global standard description for heat stress is the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature Index (WBGT). A combination hygrometer / thermometer, or thermo-hygrometer, can be used to verify the integrity of the cold chain during the transport and warehousing of refrigerated food and pharmaceutical products. This versatile and popular style of hygrometer also is ideal for evaluating the performance of HVAC systems in industrial, commercial and residential properties. If the humidity indoors is too high, mold can occur. Certain types of mold cause respiratory problems and other negative health effects for people living or working in the surrounding environment. In addition, mold that has permeated into the walls or roof of a structure must be removed for safety reasons. Mold remediation and removal, also called mold damage restoration, can be a costly endeavor, which is why preventative monitoring of the humidity indoors is preferable whenever possible.
