Fluke 233 Remote Display Multimeter

by Fluke

Product Description

From the Manufacturer

As electrical systems grow more and more complex, spikes, transients, surges, and sudden over voltage events become more common. These can trigger a sequence of events that may lead to serious injury. This is why test equipment must be designed to protect people who work in this high-voltage high-current environment. The Fluke 233 Remote Display Multimeter is compact, rugged, reliable, and easy to use. The 233 features True-rms AC voltage and current for accurate measurements on non-linear signals, and it measures up to 1000 volts AC and DC, and 10 A (20 A for 30 seconds). The meter has Min/Max and Average recording to capture variations automatically and it performs resistance, continuity and diode tests. The low power wireless technology allows the large digit display with backlight to be carried up to 10 meters (33 feet) away from the point of measurement for added flexibility and no interference with measurements. The built in thermometer conveniently allows you to take temperature readings without having to carry a separate instrument. The removable magnetic display can be conveniently mounted where it is easily seen and allows you to take measurements without holding the meter to improve visual focus on probes and augment safe electrical measurements. The 233 Multimeter includes five AA batteries and runs approximately 400 hours with the meter's auto power off feature. The meter also includes the following: a test lead set, alligator clip set, 80BK-A Temperature Probe, CD-ROM, and user's manual. The Fluke 233 Remote Display Multimeter is covered by a three year warranty and is old one item per package.

5.0 out of 5 stars FLUKE #233DMM Wireless, September 11, 2010

I just purchased this DMM a few days ago. The wireless function is a lifesaver. I have been employed by a bus (Touring Coach) dealership for the past 14 years, as a service technician (mostly electrical/electronic circuit troubleshooting and tracing.
I use my Fluke meters almost everyday. The 233 will serve as my primary DMM now.
I used it a couple of days ago to analyze a charging system on a customer's coach. I connected the 233 to the batteries to check alternator(s) output (the Van-Hool coach has two).
I removed the display and sat in the driver's seat, while the main unit was in the battery compartment, at the rear of the coach. (the bumper to bumper length is 45 feet) This allowed me to load the electrical system (by turning on the air-conditioning, interior and exterior lights video system etc.) and observe the alternators voltage outputs, while at idle and fast-idle. This saved me from having to walk back to the battery compartment to observe the readout multiple times.
I also used it to dynamically observe voltage output and "CAN Backbone" resistance on the multiplex system of a different customer's coach, while the coach was being driven. This customer had problems with multiplex "node" communication.
With the addition of the temperature functionality, the 233 could replace my 83-III and my 52-II (dual temp. input) meters.
With digital drive-line CAN, multiplexed CAN, digital-microprocessor controlled engine, transmission and ABS "Drive-By-Wire , Shift-by-Wire and Brake-by-Wire" systems, I have many opportunities to use my new Fluke 233. In any event I will NOT retire my Fluke 83II and 52II, they have served me well.
Thanks for listening... Wardell

5.0 out of 5 stars Too Great, September 2, 2010

I love this product!!!! I am a field service technician and I do VFD commissioning, and this Meter helps me out a lot. Previously i would have to just use a magnet on a regular Fluke, and that was hazardous when working with high voltage, but now with the detachable screen i just place the screen in my viewing range, and then take my measurements without having any slips.
