ABB CB-2000 Capacitance Meter

Measuring capacitance is an integral part of the regular maintenance of capacitor banks. With the CB-2000, even large capacitor banks can be measured quickly and easily because no internal disconnections are necessary. The ABB CB-2000 is simple to use and easy to carry using the supplied shoulder strap. The measured values are clearly presented on the LCD, which can be read in daylight and dark environments.

You can seamlessly transfer measurement data from the ABB CB-2000 to a PC for comprehensive storage and analysis. Likewise, previously stored data on the PC can be conveniently uploaded back to the meter, ensuring easy access and reference for subsequent measurements.
