Operational down to –40 °C

temperature

The U1273AX OLED handheld digital

multimeter, the latest addition to U1270

Series, is capable of operating in winter

weather down to –40°C temperature.

Even in frigid conditions, the U1273AX

enables you to achieve immediate and

accurate results without the need to

warm up in advance.

OLED for more display clarity

Designed with OLED display, you can

experience crystal-clear measurement

readings with its outstanding 2000:1

contrast ratio. The display also allows

wider viewing angles up to 160

degrees ensuring you get the right

readings at the first glance even in

poorly lit environments.

Increase productivity with

Bluetooth® wireless

connectivity

For wireless connectivity to

smartphones and tablets, the U1270

Series is compatible with the U1177A

infrared-to-Bluetooth adapter for

maximum efficiency and productivity

in completing measurements tasks.

Adding the optional U1177A to a

U1270 Series you can easily perform

remote monitoring and data

logging via Android devices or

Windows®-based PC.

Key Functions Water and dust resistance (IP54) The series’ tightly sealed design helps protect against water, dust and damage. Each handheld DMM is certified with IP 54 ratings so that you can carry out tests and measurements with confidence, even in harsh working conditions. Operational up to 3000 meters altitude For high altitude applications such as wind farm maintenance, you can measure with confidence using the U1270 Series, capable of measuring up to 3000 meters above sea level.

Key Functions Low impedance mode Peak detect at 250 µs Stray voltages are usually found in non-energized electrical wiring adjacent to powered wires due to capacitive or inductive coupling between these wires. The low impedance mode serves to eliminate false readings by dissipating these stray voltages thus improves safety and measurement efficiency during voltage measurement. The peak detect function allows you to capture the engine or motor startup transient as fast as 250 µs. Figure 2.
