The Fluke 189 Digital Multimeter, Fluke’s top handheld DMM, delivers high accuracy (0.025 percent basic DCV accuracy) and over 20 different measurement functions. In addition, the Fluke 189 DMM can measure and log ac and dc voltage and current, resistance and continuity, temperature, and dB as well as perform diode tests. The included Extended Run Time Battery Pack extends data logging with the Fluke 189 to over 400 total hours.

Data logging gives electricians, engineers and plant technicians a tremendous productivity advantage. You can set up the Fluke 189 to log and capture data over time to help spot, diagnose and prevent intermittent problems or anomalies that can cause facility down time.
