Fluke 87V Industrial Multimeter

The Fluke 87V Industrial Multimeter provides resolution and accuracy for troubleshooting motor drives, plant automation, power distribution, and electromechanical equipment in loud, high-energy, and high-altitude locations.

Key features include an easy-access door for fast battery changes without breaking the calibration seal, analog bar graph for fast changing or unstable signals, and large digit display with bright two-level backlight for easier reading in low light. Touch Hold keeps readings on display after removing probes.

The 87V identifies complex electrical problems quickly with support for accurate measurements on VFDs using a low-pass filter. It captures intermittents as fast as 250 microseconds using Peak Capture. High-frequency noise from large drive systems is blocked with specially designed shielding.

All inputs are updated to the third edition of EN 61010-1 to CAT III 1000 V and CAT IV 600 V. The meter withstands spikes exceeding 8000 V and includes an audible Input Alert warning if test leads are placed in incorrect input jacks.

A removable holster with built-in test lead and probe storage provides convenience. Relative mode removes test lead resistance, improving low-resistance measurement accuracy. An optional magnetic hanger frees hands during testing.

The device is designed and built in the U.S. and comes with a lifetime warranty.
