what type CLR meter is ok for my application?
« on: April 20, 2011, 03:34:32 pm »
hello David
is first time I sow your presentation
fine work

I will need your advice as I don’t have any were else to ask and it will be very kind of you to assist

I am interested to be making coils for induction heating the power supply frequency generator operate on 25 khz
I get the power supply from china company's and not able to work out with them good assistants
the coil I will be making will be 50 uH, 80uH, 160uH and 180uH (micro Hunry) as the coils every time will be winded in pipes with deferent metal property's is very important to have a lcr meter to be measuring the coil to the appropriate uH every time as above

I have seen a lcr meter appa 703 for 50% discount on eBay and price less than 200$ I have seen your extech  lcr presentation video as well and cost of it in ebay 230$ . I was thinking as I am just starting and no much capital to go for a low cost as dm4070 close 34 $
kindly I will need your advice as I am new on induction and no idea of what meter will do the job for as less as possible bat in the same time not throwing away money on something very bad quality not able to do the job (as well then country I am from economy is in very  bad condition and money resources mast be very carefully handled )

if I have to give you more detail of the project so you advice me properly on what meter to use kindly let me know

thanks

Check Protek CL200 L/C meter price is $66.60 at Mouser Electronics. Resolution 1 µH, accuracy ±2% + 1 digit, though test frequency is only 900 Hz which is low compared to 25 kHz operating frequency.
