The AM-560 auto ranging digital multimeter is specifically designed for advanced HVAC applications. This HVAC multimeter offers a full set of professional digital multimeter features to measure a complete range of electrical parameters and key functions for HVAC applications. Dual thermocouples take differential temperature measurements; a low pass filter enhances accuracy on variable frequency drive measurements; and capacitance can be used to check motor startup capacitors. The AM-560 also features micro amps for flame sensor troubleshooting, non-contact voltage detection, and a CAT IV safety rating.
- Measures AC/DC voltage up to 1000 V, AC/DC current, resistance, frequency, capacitance, temperature, and duty cycle
- Dual thermocouple takes simultaneous temperature readings on low and high side of an HVAC system
- Low pass filter accurately measures voltage on variable frequency drives
- Non-contact voltage detection enhances safety
- Audible continuity quickly identifies shorts and opens
- Diode test to verify diode polarity
- Data hold freezes the reading on the display for further analysis
- Peak hold (crest) captures and holds the peak value of a voltage or current surge
- MIN/MAX recording records min/max measurements over time to show voltage fluctuations
- Relative zero mode displays the difference between the actual reading and a stored reference value and may be used with any function or range
- CAT IV 600 V/CAT III 1000 V safety rated for high voltage environments
