Fluke 170 Series Digital Multimeters

    Test Tools that set the new standard with an unrivalled combination of performance and durability

  • True rms measurements, speed and accuracy
  • Feature and function-rich design based on extensive user research
  • Lifetime warranty and latest CAT IV safety rating

The new Fluke 170 Series, which includes the 175, 177 and 179 models, was developed for use in environments that range from relatively "clean" bench areas to some of the harshest work environments known to man. The 170 Series is built based on extensive research into what this broad range of users requires in a DMM. Research clearly showed that users basically want the impossible: an affordable, high-performance, feature and function-rich multimeter that is easy to use and can take knocks inside and out. That’s just what they get with the 170 Series

Setting the new
multimeter standard

 The three models of the new 170 Series are the new benchmarks for general purpose multimeters. They set the standard with a combination of precision, features, ease-of-use, safety and reliability

  • True RMS voltage and current measurements
  • 0.09% basic accuracy (177, 179)
  • 6000 count resolution
  • Digital display with analog bargraph and backlight (177, 179)
  • Manual and automatic ranging
  • Display Hold and Auto Hold
  • Frequency and capacitance measurements
  • Resistance, continuity and diode measurements
  • Temperature measurements (179)
  • Min-max-average recording
  • Smoothing mode allows filtering of rapidly changing inputs
  • Easy battery exchange without opening the case
  • Closed case calibration through front panel
  • Ergonomic case with integrated protective holster
  • EN61010-1 CAT III 1000V / CAT IV 600V
  • Measures twice as fast as other multimeters
