TPI 183A True RMS Digital Multimeter

The TPI 183A True RMS Digital Multimeter is a portable digital multimeter that measures a wide array of different electrical parameters including AC voltage (750V), DC voltage (1000V), AC/DC current (10A), resistance (40MΩ), frequency (10MHz), and capacitance (4000µF). High resolution is available for each parameter including microamps for testing smoke detectors. There are also options for continuity and diode testing as well as temperature measurement up to 1300˚C depending on the probe whilst duty cycle measurement allows assessment of modulating gas valves.

True RMS measurement aids accuracy on AC values and builds on basic DC accuracy of ±0.5%. Another helpful feature on the TPI 183A is a low pass filter which is very useful for performing inspections in electrically noisy environments.

Results are displayed on the TPI 183A’s backlit digital display which also has an analogue bar graph display. Operation is undertaken via a simple, clearly-labelled dial and results can even be printed on an optional IR printer through wireless infrared technology. Data hold freezes a reading on screen and min/max recording provides an in-depth picture of any particular variable. Relative mode can be employed to compare two values.

The TPI 183A is a feature-rich multimeter which also comes with a range of accessories including rubber casing with a tilt stand, a thermocouple with an adapter, a test lead set and an instruction manual.
