Amprobe 🇺🇸

📍 Everett, WA, USA
🏢 Founded 1948
🌍 Industrial Electrical & Thermal Diagnostics

Company Overview

Amprobe began life in Long Island, NY in 1948 under the name Pyramid Instrument Company. Among Amprobe’s first products was the Inductive clamp meter “Amprobe”, for which the company received its first patent in September 1950. The Amprobe name became so synonymous with clamp meters that in 1960 the company name was formally changed to Amprobe Instrument Corporation.

Amprobe continued to design, manufacture and distribute products from its Lynbrook, NY location until it was merged to form ATP and relocated to South Florida in late 1999. In 2006 Amprobe was acquired by the Danaher Corporation and moved its worldwide headquarters to Everett, Washington. Over the last seven decades Amprobe has become a leading manufacturer of safe, reliable electrical test tools for industrial, commercial and residential applications with over 500 products worldwide.

Amprobe not only invented the first clamp meter and the first wire tracer, but has also been consistently first to market with innovative solutions to better meet the needs of our professional customers. All Amprobe tools undergo rigorous testing to ensure quality and full compliance with the latest IEC and CE safety regulations in our state of the art environmental and safety testing labs and are further listed with third party certification labs.

Core Technologies

Electrical Integration
Because Amprobe’s DNA is in electrical testing, their thermal tools are specifically calibrated and designed for spotting high-voltage electrical anomalies, not just general heat maps.
🛡️
Ruggedized Durability
Amprobe tools are built for the brutal environment of industrial construction and touring live events. They are heavily drop-tested, dust-proof, and designed to survive being thrown into heavy Pelican tool cases.
🎯
Precise IR Spot Diagnostics
Alongside full thermal cameras, they manufacture highly accurate IR spot thermometers that utilize laser targeting, allowing a technician to measure the exact temperature of a single fuse from 20 feet away.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Amprobe thermal tools be used for fever screening?
Absolutely not. Amprobe thermal cameras are strictly industrial tools. They are designed to measure temperatures up to hundreds of degrees, but lack the extreme, fractional medical precision (±0.3°C) required to accurately screen a human for a fever.
What is the difference between a thermal camera and an IR thermometer?
An IR thermometer (like a laser temp gun) gives you the temperature of one single, specific spot. A thermal camera takes a picture, displaying the temperature of thousands of different spots simultaneously as a color-coded map.
Who owns Amprobe?
Amprobe is currently a subsidiary of the Fluke Corporation, which is widely considered the absolute gold standard in industrial testing and measurement equipment globally.
