Fluke 83 Digital Multimeter True RMS

Fluke Multimeter, 400h Battery Life, True RMS Capability - FLUKE 83V

This multimeter is a handheld diagnostic instrument designed for professionals working in automation, electronics, electrical and mechanical environments. It measures AC and DC voltages and currents, resistance, continuity, capacitance, frequency and temperature, delivering measurements appropriate for field and workshop tasks while operating across typical industrial temperature and altitude ranges.

Features & Benefits

• True RMS measurement for accurate non‑sinusoidal readings improves waveform assessment
  DC voltage accuracy ±0.1%rdg+1 digit for precise low‑level sensing
  AC current accuracy ±1.2%rdg+2 digits for reliable alternating current checks
  Frequency response up to 20kHz for high‑frequency signal diagnostics
  Temperature and capacitance functions extend troubleshooting to thermal and component testing
  Battery life 400h with alkaline cells reduces service disruptions

**Applications**

• Suitable for verifying motor drive outputs and inverter signals in automation systems
  Ideal for calibrating sensors and measuring low DC voltages in electronics labs
  Used for on‑site current checks and branch circuit verification in electrical maintenance
  Can be used for capacitor testing and component fault finding in mechanical control panels
  Used with temperature probes to troubleshoot thermal issues in assemblies

What display resolution and update behaviour can I expect for fast events?

The instrument provides a digital count of 6000 with updates around 4 times per second and an analogue 33‑segment bar updating at 40 times per second to help track transient changes.

How does the meter handle input protection and extreme inputs?

The input circuitry is protected for up to 1000V between terminals and earth, with fast fuses on current ranges to limit damage from overloads.

What environmental limits affect operation and storage?

It operates from −20°C to +55°C and is specified for use up to 2000m altitude, with storage capability from −40°C to +60°C.

How does the unit perform when measuring low currents and small conductance?

Microcurrent ranges include 600 μA and 6000 μA sensitivities with specific burden voltages and conductance resolution down to 0.01 nS for fine measurements.

Notes

For Calibrated articles - Accuracy is specified for 1 year after calibration, at operating temperatures of 18 °C to 28 °C, with relative humidity at 0 % to 90 %
