The testo 760 digital multimeter

Across a number of fields, the ability to take accurate electrical measurements is absolutely vital. For these tasks, the right multimeter can be an invaluable tool. From supply voltage to A measurements, a digital multimeter can deliver a range of information essential to any technician working with an electrical system.

While the digital multimeter represented a significant advance in measurement tools, Testo has taken the next step forward with the testo 760 – the first automatic multimeter of its kind. Featuring function keys rather than the typical dial, the testo 760 is a reliable and easy to use device that delivers measurements to the highest degree of accuracy.

The ease of automatic

With other digital multimeters, the wrong setting or configuration can fry the device’s fuse – this leads to downtime, and replacing the fuse is an extra cost for the user. The testo 760 eliminates this issue with automatic measurement parameter recognition – it will automatically engage the correct measurement mode based on how the test leads are connected.

The device also features function keys that light up based on those those leads, providing an extra safeguard against mismatched connections and measuring parameters. And, should the user try to engage a function with the test leads in the wrong sockets, the testo 760 will notify him or her through visible and audible notifications. For added readability, the testo 760 features one of the largest displays currently on the market.

The testo 760 family

Not everyone uses a multimeter for the same reasons; each person will have different needs based on their planned applications. To address this, Testo has introduced the family of three multimeters.

If you need a multimeter for daily tasks, the testo 760-1 is an ideal choice. The standard model provides accurate results, measuring up to 600 volts and from 0.1 milliamps to 10 amps of current.

For more advanced tasks and even higher accuracy, the testo 760-2 and 760-3 are up to the job. These models use true root mean square (TRMS) to deliver measurements accurate to 1 per cent. They also feature a low-pass filter, which can measure voltage on systems that run at lower levels to deliver greater energy efficiency. The testo 760-2 and 760-3 can measure 0.1 microamps to 10 amps in current. While the testo 760-2 can measure up to 600 volts, the testo 760-3 provides an increased range up to 1,000 volts.
