These digital multimeters with analog bar
graph displays take advantage of the latest
advances in microcircuit technology to provide
uncompromising quality and capabilities. The
result is a series of high-performance meters
with combined features never before available,
even on more expensive instruments.
Operating any of the Fluke 70 Series multimeters is
exceptional/y simple. Choose the function you want,
connect the test leads, and the meter automatically
selects the correct range.
ANALOG/DIGITAL DISPLAY
The high-resolution 3200 count digital display deliv-
ers better accuracy than conventional 3-1 /2 digit
DMMs. A 31-segment bar graph reacts 1 0 times
faster than the numerical display, making peaking
and dipping adjustments easy.
FAST AUTORANGING
Simply choose a function and the meter automatically
selects the range with the greatest accuracy and
resolution. Symbols on the liquid crystal display show
what function is being measured and the range of
measurement.
AUDIBLE CONTINUITY/DIODE TEST
(FLUKE 75 AND 77)
A continuous audible tone provides a fast check for
continuity of current paths having 150 ohms or less. A
brief tone indicates a voltage drop of about 0.6 volts,
the normal forward bias for semiconductor devices
passing about 500 uA.
TOUCH HOLD (FLUKE 77)
This feature allows automatic measurements
while watching probes and circuits. The meter
captures the measurement, beeps, and locks
it in the display until you're ready to view it. It
automatically updates with each new mea-
surement.
STANDARD EQUIPMENT
All 70 Series meters are packaged with a pair
of safety-designed Fluke TL70 right-angle test
leads, operator's manual, battery and spare -
fuse. The multi-purpose C70 holster is in-
cluded with the Fluke 77.
