Agilent U1270 series handheld digital multimeters

The U1270 series handheld digital multimeters (DMMs) have a wide range of measurement capabilities, including feature sets that are found only in higher-end industrial handheld DMMs.

The DMMs include capabilities such as low-impedance mode to eliminate stray voltages and low-pass filtering to remove noise that distorts voltage and current readings. The Smart Ohm function minimises false readings due to leakage current.

The DMMs have a slim, easy-to-grip profile and controls that are easy to operate, even when wearing heavy gloves. The series also features a flashing backlight as a visual alert to enhance continuity checks in dark, noisy environments.

Additional capabilities include PC connectivity for data-logging applications and easy access to the fuse through the rear-panel battery door.

The DMMs are CAT III 1000V and CAT IV 600V compliant and have an ingress protection rating of IP54, against dust (limited ingress and no harmful deposits) and water sprayed from all directions (limited ingress permitted). They are suitable for industrial applications in dusty, grimy, damp and dark environments.
