testo 760-2 – Digital multimeter

The testo 760-2 digital multimeter is a reliable measuring instrument for professional users in electrical engineering and plant construction. Thanks to automatic detection of measurement variables, an extended current measurement range up to the microampere range and precise true RMS measurement, this instrument is characterized by high safety and accuracy in a wide range of applications. Compared to classic models, the uncomplicated and intuitive operating approach is particularly useful for routine work. Similar functions to the [testo 760-1 – digital multimeter] also offer you comprehensive measurement options if you prefer a more compact version for simple current, voltage and resistance measurements.

Detailed description

The robust measuring device is equipped with automatic measured variable detection, which recognizes whether it is a current, voltage or resistance measurement based on the socket assignment. This largely eliminates accidental incorrect settings. Instead of a typical rotary knob, well-lit function keys are used, which can be conveniently operated with one hand. This provides additional safety, especially in tight spaces, for example in switch cabinet systems.

Thanks to its measuring range, the device is ideal for anyone working in the maintenance, servicing or installation of electronic systems. The low-pass filter in particular eases measurements on frequency converter-controlled motors by providing more precise results at higher frequencies. In addition, the temperature can also be recorded using an adapter (type K), which is interesting for heating or air conditioning technicians, among others. With these extended application options, the device covers a wide range of professional applications.Important technical features at a glance:
– Automatic detection of measured variables for maximum safety
– Current measurement up to 10 A and in the µA range
– True RMS value measurement (TRMS) for accurate results
– Low-pass filter for frequency converter applications
– Temperature measurement via type K thermocouple (with adapter)
– CAT-IV-600-V safety category for demanding environments
– IP64 protection class for robust use

In addition, the two-line display is impressive. It presents measured values clearly and is backlit so that it can be read precisely even in unfavorable lighting conditions. Thanks to the wide range of measurement functions, the device covers voltage, current, resistance, frequency and capacitance measurements. Whether in the CAT IV 600 V measurement category in harsh industrial areas or in laboratory environments – the digital multimeter adapts to your needs.

Application examples

– Testing and maintenance of electrical systems: The device measures voltages and resistances in three-phase and single-phase systems and facilitates troubleshooting.
– Checking frequency converter-controlled motors: The integrated low-pass filter enables precise measurements despite high-frequency interference.
– Measurements in the heating, ventilation and air conditioning sector: Use the supplied adapter for type K thermocouples to quickly record temperatures in pipes, oils or air flows.
– Accurate testing of circuit boards and electronic components: Thanks to the µA current measurement range, you can determine reliable values at very low currents, such as those found in sensor systems.
