Fluke 233 Remote True-RMS Display Multimeter A roadtest by Patrick Wijnings for Element 14 August, 2010
The display module has four buttons: “Hold”, “Min-max” and “Range” for enabling the special measurement modes described earlier, and
According to the specifications, maximum range is about 10 m (32.8 ft) in open air. Inside, the display module lost signal at a distance of about 6 m
Low and high voltage parts are neatly separated, and there is enough space between the high voltage PCB traces. You can also see
You can see another RF transceiver (U204), IR transmitter and receiver, the buzzer (LS201) and the display microcontroller (U201; TI MSP430F448, 48 k
A luxury version of the UT60A-cn called the UT60A is also available. It is sometimes rebranded as Voltcraft VC820 and includes a RS232
In my opinion, the measurement modes of the Fluke are slightly more useful. More information about the supported ranges and accuracies o
Safety and interior build quality The last comparison I will make between both meters is in the field of safety. On the outside, there is only one d
Conclusion Now that the Fluke 233 has been compared with a budget multimeter, it is time for my final verdict. Build quality of the Fluke 233 is
Introduction As an Electrical Engineering student and hobbyist, I have often heard stories about the quality (and cost) of Fluke instruments

The meter itself Measurement modes The Fluke 233 has quite a few measurement modes: Voltage: up to 1000 V. The meter can measure both DC and AC vo
The meter is auto-ranging, which means that the display scale will automatically be adjusted. By pressing a button, it can also be overr
When you look at the top of the multimeter, you can see the attachment point for the ToolPak and two probe holders. The probe holders can be used to
The display module The most eye-catching feature of this meter is the removable display module. Fluke has a video on its website demonstrating its use
