Hioki supplier in Romania
Multimeters, power analysers and insulation testers
Founded in 1935 · Headquarters: Ueda, Japan
Who is Hioki and what does it make?
Hioki is a Japanese manufacturer of electrical test and measuring instruments, headquartered in Ueda, in Nagano prefecture, active since 1935. The range includes multimeters, clamp meters, data loggers and flying probe inspection instruments for electronic boards. From the Hioki portfolio we can quote electrical measuring instruments for test laboratories and production lines where reading accuracy matters.
The company has focused solely on electrical measuring instruments since its founding in 1935. The AC/DC clamp meters in the range cover measuring ranges from 10/100 A up to 600/2000 A, depending on the model.
For Romania, the Hioki range makes sense in electrical metrology laboratories, maintenance of industrial electrical panels and quality control in electronic board production, where the customer needs precision instruments with traceable measurements.
What do we supply from the Hioki range?
| Product | Description |
|---|---|
| Clamp meters | Instruments for measuring current without interrupting the circuit, with different measuring ranges depending on the model (for example 10/100 A or 600/2000 A). Useful in industrial electrical panels where direct access to the conductor is limited. For a quotation, the customer needs to provide the maximum current to be measured and the width of the busbar or cable concerned. |
| Data loggers | Data acquisition systems, configurable according to the number and type of measuring channels needed. Recommended for continuous monitoring in laboratories or production lines. For configuration, the number of channels, the type of signal measured and the recording duration wanted are needed. |
| Flying probe PCB inspection instruments | Equipment for testing electronic boards with a flying probe, with horizontal loading and access on both sides of the board. Used in quality control of electronics production, where testing with dedicated fixtures is not economically justified. The customer needs to provide the board size and the number of test points required. |

How do we supply Hioki in Romania?
The information on Hioki comes from the manufacturer's technical documentation; we do not hold our own inventory of instruments from their measuring range. Delivery is organised through EU supply channels, and the time until the order arrives is usually 1–4 weeks. For a suitable quotation, the customer needs to tell us the quantity measured (current, voltage, insulation), the measuring range required and whether calibration with a certificate is needed. We do not promise permanent availability of all the models in the manufacturer's catalogue.
Calibration with a RENAR-accredited certificate for Hioki instruments is carried out in specialised third-party laboratories.
Frequently asked questions about Hioki
Which Hioki clamp meter should I choose for currents above 500 A?
The CM4373-90 model covers a measuring range of 600 to 2000 A in AC and DC, and is suitable for industrial electrical panels with heavy loads. For currents up to 1000 A, an alternative from the same Hioki range is the CM4375-90 clamp meter.
What is the difference between the Hioki FA1816 and FA1817 flying probe testers?
The FA1816 uses two probing arms and reaches a maximum test speed of 100 points per second, and is aimed at simpler boards. The FA1817 has four probing arms, which allows simultaneous access to several areas of the board, but at a lower maximum speed of 67 points per second.
Do you supply Hioki instruments in Romania?
Yes, Hioki instruments are brought in on order, starting from the manufacturer's technical documentation, without a range of our own held in inventory. On order, 1–4 weeks are usually needed, depending on the model and the accessories requested (probes, cables or software). Confirm the exact Hioki model code before ordering.
What information do I send for a quotation on a Hioki measuring instrument?
It helps to state the current or voltage range needed, the type of signal measured (AC, DC or both) and whether long-term data recording is needed. For testing electronic boards, the number of test points also matters, details which allow the right choice between the CM, LR or FA ranges from Hioki.
How do I request a Hioki quotation?
Send the Hioki code from the nameplate and the quantity; we reply in English with availability and the lead time written in the quotation.
