Agilent U1273A digital multimeter

Five additions have been made to Agilent’s portfolio of handheld instruments. The U1273A digital multimeter brings the clarity of an OLED display to the rugged and ergonomic U1270 series. Four new U1190 series clamp meters provide lower-cost complements to the existing U1210 series.

The U1273A with its OLED screen has a 2000-to-1 contrast ratio that delivers indoor viewing through 160°. Water and dust resistant, the instrument enhances measurement results with functions such as Smart Ohm, which minimises readings from residual voltages induced by leakage currents.

The U1190 series of clamp meters enables safe measurements of electrical current in the 400 to 600 A range. The clamp assemblies include a wire separator and hook that technicians can use to select tangled cables under adverse conditions. A built-in flashlight mounted at the base of the clamp provides direct illumination in poorly lit conditions. The instrument has safety ratings of CAT III 600 V/CAT IV 300 V.
