Handheld test tools are rugged in design
Fluke will be showing a wide range of rugged handheld test tools suitable for all areas of industry, including the latest digital multimeters (DMMs), ScopeMeters and process calibration tools.
Loop calibrator can be operated with one hand
Fluke introduces new Loop Calibrator with an innovative, easy-to-use interface. Portable instrument's novel, one-handed operation gives technicians a free hand.
Using the ScopeRecord mode of the Fluke 190 Series ScopeMeter enables the capture of reference curves for parameters such as hydraulic pressure relative to feed-scroll position, and mould cavity pressure relative to feed-scroll position, at the preferred, fine-tuned settings.
Dynamic traces of these parameters plotted against time, when re-starting or maintaining the machine at a later time, can then be easily compared to the optimum settings.
The Fluke ScopeMeter 190 Series of handheld, two-channel oscilloscopes include 196 and 199 models, available with either monochrome or colour screens.
The ScopeRecord mode captures accurate traces of dynamic parameters even over the relatively slow injection process.
The 196 and 199 models offer 100MHz or 200MHz bandwidths and 1GS/s or 2.5GS/s sampling rates respectively, as well as providing a true-rms Multimeter in one affordable, easy to use instrument.
The high-resolution waveforms can also be transferred to a PC running optional FlukeView ScopeMeter software for documenting, archiving and analysis. Request a free brochure from Fluke (UK) ...
