Parrot Gripper Clip vs Gripper, Grabber, mini gripper test leads
and probes |
 One hook gripper clips are
very often used at test probes, test leads for multimeters, oscilloscopes,
spectrum analyzers
The Parrot Gripper Clip invention,
awarded the Gold Medal at the World Faire of Inventions, Brussels
1991 provides 4 major advantages toward one hook clip.
The advantages
of the Parrot Clip are an outcome of the Invention’s Novelty (link):
the METAL TIP
- High insulation
- Reliable connection at high temperature
- Reliable mechanical connection
- Low point contact resistance
|
| PARROT™ CLIP
|
One
Hook Clip |
|
- High insulation - 1000V CAT III,
according to IEC 1010-231
- Light body, preventing detachment of the clip-on connection
due to its weight
|
- Low voltage insulation - large part of
the one hook clip is not covered by plastic insulation
|
- Low point contact, hands-on resistance
= approximately 3 mohm (metal tip with sharp edges)
- Low clip-on, hands-free connection resistance = approximately
3 mohm (made between two metal parts)
- Reliable connection at high temperatures
|
- Poor and uneasy point contact measurement
- needs finger pressing during point contact measurement
|
- Can be used for placing or removing components
|
- Poor accessibility in small narrow places
- Plastic insulation is not
allowing miniaturization of the plastic part of the one
hook grip
|
|
- Good accessibility, can be used in small, narrow places
|
-
Poor hands free connection reliability made between metal
and plastic part
- Poor mechanical and temperature connection made between
metal and plastic part
|
|
The one hook gripper clip, two hooks clip, etc. can't be easy
developed to meet new quality and reliability requested by users
of the new multimeters, oscilloscopes, voltmeters, DMM, ohmmeters,
spectrum analyzers.
The
Parrot gripper clip with other shapes and sizes are the solution
for Fluke, Hameg, and other high quality or hobby equipments.
