VOLTCRAFT VC-337 pinza amperometrica digitale CAT III 300 V, CAT II 600 V, 4000 count

The VC-337 stands out among entry-level clamp meters by offering true CAT III 300 V / CAT II 600 V safety in a slim, one-hand operable body. While many budget clamps force you to choose between current range and voltage accuracy, this model covers both with a 4000-count display and a 30 mm jaw that swallows standard building cables without contorting your wrist.

Highlights

• 4000-count LCD with clear digits and low-battery warning
• AC current up to 400 A via clamp — no circuit interruption needed
• AC/DC voltage to 600 V, resistance to 40 MΩ, capacitance to 100 µF
• K-type temperature input from -20 °C to +760 °C (probe included)
• Continuity beeper and diode test for fast go/no-go checks
• Data hold freezes readings in tight or dark spots
• Auto-ranging plus manual override for predictable measurements
• Powered by 2x AAA batteries, with auto power-off to extend life

In daily use

The VC-337 is built for electricians, HVAC technicians, and advanced DIYers who need a dependable clamp meter without paying for logging or Bluetooth extras. The average-sensing circuit is stable on sinusoidal loads, and the 30 mm jaw opening handles up to 300 MCM conductors. A tactile rotary switch lets you change functions with gloves on, while the backlit display (activated by a dedicated button) helps in distribution boards and crawl spaces. The included carrying case keeps the meter, test leads, and temperature probe together, so the whole kit fits in a tool bag side pocket.
