Snap-on EEDM585 Digital clamp meter multimeter with dual display
Due to the increase in the number of electrical and electronic components and systems in modern vehicles, there is also a growing need for smart, accurate, multifunctional measuring equipment. The Snap-on EEDM585 digital clamp multimeter with dual display and app is the latest generation of multimeters for working on all types, brands and models of conventional, current and future vehicles.
Passenger cars, vans, lorries, trailers, agricultural machinery, earth-moving machinery and even vessels. They all have multiple electronic components and systems that will eventually require diagnosis, maintenance or repair.
Fast, reliable and reproducible measurement
The Snap-on Tools EEDM585 has been developed for technicians who want fast, reliable and reproducible measurements. The clamp meter measures both AC and DC current without interrupting the circuit. This saves time and minimises the risk of measurement errors, especially with starting currents, charging circuits and electric drives.
An important advantage of the Snap-on EEDM585 is its dual display. Voltage and current, or current and frequency, for example, can be read simultaneously. This makes connections immediately visible, such as voltage drop under load or the behaviour of an actuator during control. The meter works with True RMS, which is essential in modern vehicles with pulsed and distorted signals.

Measurements visible on smartphone
Via the Bluetooth app, available via the Apple App Store and Google Play Store
worden meetwaarden draadloos doorgestuurd naar smartphone of tablet. Dat is praktisch bij metingen in krappe ruimtes of wanneer je tijdens een proefrit data wilt loggen. Meetresultaten kunnen worden opgeslagen, vergeleken en gedeeld, bijvoorbeeld voor dossiervorming of overleg met collega’s.
The EEDM585 supports functions such as min/max recording, peak and inrush current measurement (measuring the short, high current drawn by an electrical component when it is switched on, even before it starts operating normally) and is suitable for measurements on starter motors, alternators, electric pumps, fans and high-power consumers in EVs and hybrid applications.
The automotive-specific protection offers protection against voltage spikes, incorrect connection and electromagnetic interference, ensuring that the meter continues to operate reliably within 12V and 24V vehicle systems.
Court diagnostic instrument
In addition, the EEDM585 has a wide measurement range for voltage, current, resistance, frequency, power and temperature, with support for measurements up to 1100 A. The meter offers features such as non-contact AC voltage detection, min/max and average value recording, internal current protection without replaceable fuses, and complies with high safety standards (CAT III and CAT IV). With a brightly lit LCD display, extensive app functionality for graphs and data storage, and a long warranty period, the EEDM585 is also fully equipped technically for professional workshop use.

The EEDM585ADP is an optional adapter for the Snap-on EEDM585 that allows the current clamp and multimeter to be operated with one hand. The adapter is designed to stabilise the meter during measurements and allows an EEDM504B3 test lead (not included) to be attached. This enables more efficient and safer working, especially when taking measurements in confined or hard-to-reach spaces.
The Snap-on EEDM585 is not a universal multimeter, but a targeted diagnostic tool for those who see electrical measurement as an integral part of their daily work. Less guessing, more measuring – exactly what modern vehicle technology requires.
