The TA473 PicoBNC+ 60A AC/DC current clamp from Pico Technology is engineered for fuel injector and fuel pump diagnostics on modern vehicles. Measuring currents from 10mA to 60A, this automotive current probe delivers superior performance compared to legacy TA018 and TA234 models, enabling technicians to capture precise injector waveforms and diagnose fuel system faults with confidence.
The clamp can be auto-configured by PicoScope software when it is connected to the scope. Ranging is carried out automatically with no user switching required. The clamp is powered via the scope and therefore does not require any batteries. Additionally, the clamp is auto-zeroed whenever it is connected to the scope.
In use, there is no need to break into the circuit or disturb the isolation as the opening jaws simply clamp around the current-carrying conductor. No electrical contact is required.
These current clamps have been designed for use with PicoScope oscilloscopes and feature additional screening to reduce noise pickup. The Pico TA473 current clamp can either be purchased as an accessory within one of our popular diagnostic kits or individually but requires a PicoScope featuring the PicoBNC+ such as the 4225A or 4425A.
