Analog Multimeters
500 V CAT II
IEC/EN 61010-1, Second Edition
5 Ampere 15 Ampere / Class 2.5
Broad Range of Applications
A large number of measuring ranges allows for universal use of
the instruments, for example in electronics, digital technology and
a wide variety of general electrical applications.
Safety Features
The connector jacks and plugs included with the measurement
cables which are available as accessories are protected against
inadvertent contact.
Measuring Range Selector Switch
All measuring ranges are selected with a rotary switch.
Rugged Mechanical Design
The rugged plastic housing and the spring loaded bearing jewels
in the moving-coil mechanism protect the instrument from
damage due to mechanical stressing. Especially effective
protection is provided by the protective rubber cover and the
ever-ready case, both of which are available as accessories.
