RF Current Probe, 27 mm Aperture

  • ▸ CLCE-227 RF current monitoring probe, 9 kHz to 230 MHz — a wideband split-core current probe for conducted emissions measurement and RF current monitoring across commercial, automotive, military, and aerospace EMC testing.
  • ▸ Standards-compliant current probe for CISPR, MIL-STD-461, and RTCA DO-160 — meets CISPR 16-1-2 requirements for current monitoring probes and supports conducted emissions and immunity testing per CISPR 22/32, MIL-STD-461, and DO-160.
  • ▸ Compact 27 mm (1.06") aperture for individual wires and small bundles — the small window clamps neatly around single conductors and tight harnesses where larger current probes will not fit.
  • ▸ Nominal −11 dBΩ (0.28 Ω) transfer impedance for accurate current readings — delivers dependable voltage-to-current conversion with 50 Ω spectrum analyzers and EMI receivers.
  • ▸ Used during MIL-STD-461 CS114 conducted susceptibility testing — monitors RF current on the EUT harness while a BCI probe injects energy, providing real-time verification that injected levels meet CS114 requirements and detecting over- or under-injection.
  • ▸ Hinged split-core design for fast, non-intrusive clamp-on measurement — opens to clamp over installed cables and harnesses without disconnecting connectors, then functions as a toroidal transformer for safe, contactless RF current sensing.
  • ▸ Ideal for Bulk Current Injection (BCI) immunity current monitoring — precisely monitors applied RF current during BCI conducted susceptibility testing (such as MIL-STD-461 CS114), validating that injected levels meet test requirements.
  • ▸ NIST-traceable individual calibration for accurate, repeatable results — each probe ships with NIST-traceable transfer impedance calibration data; ISO/IEC 17025 accredited calibration available on request, with a three-year warranty.
  • ▸ Optimized for use with Com-Power accessories — pairs with the FCLCE-227 Calibration Fixture and the SPA-932TG Spectrum Analyzer for full system compatibility and a complete, standards-compliant RF current measurement setup.
