Fluke 787B Process Meter™

The Fluke 787B Process Meter™ functions as both a digital multimeter and mA loop calibrator.

It can be used to measure:

DC Voltage
AC Voltage (True-RMS)
DC Current
AC Current
Resistance
Frequency
Continuity

This instrument can also be used to perform diode tests and includes a continuity beeper. In addition to this, the Fluke 787B Process Meter™ can source and simulate up to 20mA DC allowing the user to both utilise this instrument for troubleshooting applications and for calibrating current loops.

Using this tool, the operator can easily measure and view a multitude of values, as the Fluke 787B Process Meter™ includes numerous modes, including:

Min/Max
Average
Data Hold
Relative

These modes along with the Fluke 787B’s manual and auto setup and auto ramp functions allow the user to tailor this instrument to his/her needs.

Adding to the convenience of this product is its compatibility with Fluke’s Fluke Connect® mobile app and desktop software (provided the instrument is connected to a Fluke IR3000FC module, sold separately) both of which facilitate the wireless monitoring, logging and sharing of data, thereby allowing teams to work more efficiently.

In addition to its accuracy, versatility and convenience, the Fluke 787B Process Meter™ is also practical; its compact size makes it suitable for holding, whilst is externally accessible battery ensures battery changes are quick and simple.

This practical design and combination of measurement features, functions and calibration capabilities make the Fluke 787B Process Meter™ a convenient, efficient and versatile instrument.
