Overview The three models of the new 170 Series are the new benchmarks for general purpose multimeters. They set the standard with a combination of precision, features, ease-of-use, safety and reliability. Features True RMS voltage and current measurements 6000 count resolution Manual and automatic ranging Display Hold and Auto Hold Frequency and capacitance measurements Resistance, continuity and diode measurements Min-max-average recording Smoothing mode allows filtering of rapidly changing inputs Easy battery exchange without opening the case Closed case calibration through front panel Ergonomic case with integrated protective holster EN61010-1 CAT III 1000V / CAT IV 600V Measures twice as fast as other multimeters Conformance All inputs are protected to IEN61010-1 CAT IV 600V/CAT III 1000V.
