Portable digital microhmmeter is user-friendly

Using the latest solid state and microprocessor techniques, portable digital microhmmeter ensures maximum low resistance measurement reliability and the most user-friendly features.
Cropico, a division of the renowned electrical safety testing provider The Seaward Group, introduces the DO7010 portable digital microhmmeter. Developed with the latest solid state and microprocessor techniques, the DO7010 ensures maximum low resistance measurement reliability and the most user-friendly features, with an exceptionally rugged and compact design. The instrument is built for low resistance and bond resistance measurement, and is ideal for use in the workshop, field, or test facilities.

With a measuring range of 600 microOhm to 60 Ohm with 0.1 and 10 Ohm resolutions respectively, the lightweight DO7010 can measure with switchable current levels of 1A or 10A on all except the highest range.

Externally recharged NiMh battery packs are easily changeable via the front panel to minimise downtime.

An LCD panel displays full information on measurement configuration, and a single start button ensures ease of use.

The DO7010 triggers measurements by the lead contact directly to the test devices, enabling fast single person operation.

A remote hand terminal is also available to fully control the tester at up to 15m distance.

Other features include true four-terminal measurement to eliminate lead resistance errors, auto average of forward/reverse measurement and sequence testing with an available 1000 reading memory.

The data logging function also permits downloading of test sequences from an XL spreadsheet and uploading of test results to the spreadsheet.
