Agilent Technologies: U1240 Series Handheld Digital Multimeters

Overview

The Agilent U1240 Series handheld digital multimeters enable you to check more with wider measurement ranges. They feature true RMS readings on their 10,000-count displays. The adjustable backlighting allows you to complete your jobs even in subdued lighting conditions, or to simply prolong battery life. Your maintenance tasks are greatly simplified due to the built-in switch counter, harmonic ratio, dual and differential temperature capabilities, with just a press of the button. The meters have a high safety rating with CAT III 1000 V and CAT IV 600 V protection and are certified to CE and CSA standards. On top of that, the U1240 Series comes with a certificate of calibration and test report – at no extra cost.

The latest multimeters in this series, the U1241BU1241B and U1242BU1242B, now come in vivid orange cases, offering the capabilities and functions you need. Key capabilities include the switch counter for the detection of glitches on facility switch and relay systems. The U1240 lets you perform inspections quickly and conveniently with the same troubleshooting tool that you carry on your daily rounds. The harmonic ratio function of the U1242BU1242B helps detect the presence of harmonics in AC supplies that can lead to overheating of motors, generators and transformers. The U1242B also enables dual and differential temperature measurements for heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems. Monitoring differential temperature in real-time is especially useful in making sure that HVAC components in the system are cooling or heating the way they should with respect to time.

Key Applications: Automated test applications, ATE systems in R&D, design validation, and manufacturing.
