Fluke 87V Industrial Multimeter

Fluke 87V identifies complex signal problems fast

The Fluke 87V Industrial Multimeter provides the resolution and accuracy to efficiently troubleshoot motor drives, plant automation, power distribution, and electromechanical equipment even in loud, high-energy, and high-altitude locations. A low pass filter supports accurate frequency measurements on VFDs and captures intermittents as fast 250 µS.

Use the 87V to measure AC current up to 10 A directly, or use an optional clamp for high current measurements, frequency to 200 kHz, plus % duty cycle, resistance, continuity and diode test. And it includes a built-in thermometer so you can take temperature readings without having to carry a separate instrument, and more. Plus, with its bright, two-level backlit display you’ll be able to see the results better in dim light.

Correctly measure pulse-width modulated motor drive signals

The Fluke 87V takes the guesswork out of drive system troubleshooting. It includes a unique function for accurately measuring noisy at the VFD and at the motor terminals. Special shielding blocks high-frequency, high-energy noise generated by large drive systems.

Electrical safety

All the inputs in the 87V are updated to the third and CAT III, 1000 V. They are designed to withstand spikes in excess of 8000 V.
