AC Current Clamp Probe for Oscilloscopes
The Pintech PT-720 is a high-precision AC current clamp probe designed for use with oscilloscopes, multimeters, and data recorders via a BNC connector. It targets technicians and engineers who need to measure alternating current up to 2000A without breaking the circuit. The clamp jaw accommodates conductors up to 53mm in diameter, making it suitable for thick cables and busbars in industrial or automotive environments.
Bandwidth 10Hz to 100kHz
The probe operates across a bandwidth of 10Hz to 100kHz at -3dB with a rise time of 3.5 seconds. It offers three measurement ranges: 0.1A to 10A at 100mV/A output, 10A to 200A at 10mV/A, and 200A to 2000A at 1mV/A. Accuracy varies by range from 3%+10mV on the lowest scale to 1%+1mV on the highest. The unit handles 600V rms working voltage and 1000A continuous current above 1kHz, with a 1200A limit for approximately 20 minutes.
Replaces Invasive Shunt
This clamp probe upgrades workflows that previously required circuit interruption for series current measurement or the insertion of shunt resistors. The non-contact design saves time and maintains circuit integrity during live testing. It is not for users needing DC current measurement or bandwidth beyond 100kHz. The 1M ohm and 47pF load impedance suits standard oscilloscope inputs, while the 500g weight and 216 by 111 by 45mm size allow handheld or bench use.

Questions about this item
How do I connect the PT-720 to my oscilloscope, and what setting do people forget?
Plug the insulated BNC cable into the scope's BNC input, set the input impedance to 1M and 47pF, then match the probe's range switch (0.1A-10A, 10A-200A, or 200A-2000A) to the expected current so the 100mV/A, 10mV/A, or 1mV/A scaling reads correctly.
What part of the PT-720 will wear out and need replacement?
The clamp jaws and internal Hall sensor are sealed; no user-replaceable parts are specified. Keep the mating surfaces clean and avoid exceeding 600V rms or 1200A for 20 minutes to prevent permanent damage.
At what point does the PT-720 stop reading accurately during a long high-current test?
Continuous current above 1000A at frequencies over 1kHz breaks proportionality; at 1200A the probe is limited to approximately 20 minutes before overheating affects accuracy.
