MULTIMETER WITH BUILT-IN
INFRARED LASER
THERMOMETER
Tritronics, Inc., is now offering the Extech
EX470, which has all the features of a
deluxe DMM, such as a 4,000-count backlit
display, true RMS, relative function, duty cycle,
resistance, capacitance, and frequency measurements, auto power off and Data Hold. Basic
accuracy is ±0.3%. DC/AC voltage is 0.1 mV to
600 volts, current 0.1 microamp to 20 amp.
The meter’s rubber holster with lead storage includes
CAT III test leads, a multi-position tilt stand, Velcro hanging
strap, bead wire temperature probe, and 9 volt
battery. All switch positions are color-coded, as are the input
jacks, which provide warnings if probes are inserted
incorrectly. The continuity beeper is loud enough for use in
noisy areas. It is CE and UL listed. The non-contact infrared
thermometer adds to the versatility of this precision
instrument. It can be used as a laser pointer or as a device for
measuring heat in Celsius or Fahrenheit by taking non-contact
surface temperature measurements. The infrared features
8:1 distance to target ratio with 0.95 fixed emissivity.
The many uses include HVAC applications, checking
for hot lighting ballasts, overheated motors, or problem
parts in unsafe or inaccessible circuits.
Tritronics’ website provides details of this and other
test and measurement items, in addition to a full array of
electronics tools and equipment.
