Function Detailed Description

Voltage and Current Measurement

The device is capable of measuring both direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC) voltages over an extremely wide range, which is critically important for checking the power supply of batteries, generators, lighting systems, and ECUs. The current measurement capability (up to 20A) allows for direct measurement of loads, helping to assess the loading of circuits.

Resistance and Capacitance Measurement

Measuring resistance (from 200 Ohms to 200 Megaohms) is essential for checking the condition of sensors, heating elements, and cables. Capacitance measurement (from 20nF to 200µF) is particularly useful when testing electronic components, such as capacitors, which often fail in vehicles.

Temperature Measurement

With the included Type K temperature probe, the instrument can measure critical temperatures such as:

  • Engine oil temperature
  • Coolant temperature
  • Temperature setpoints of the climate control system

This function is crucial for monitoring the optimal operation of the cooling system (including E-mobility cooling systems) and the engine.

Frequency and Duty Cycle

Measurement of frequency (up to 20 MHz) and duty cycle allows for the testing of signals generated by modern Engine Control Units (ECUs), such as injector pulses or ignition signals, ensuring the correct operation of control systems.

Special Automotive Functions

Although this is a universal multimeter, it excellently complements the automotive diagnostic toolset:

  1. Continuity Test: Quickly check the integrity of wires, fuses, and connectors with audible feedback.
  2. Diode Test: Checking semiconductor components (e.g., diodes, transistors) for correct polarity and transient resistance.
  3. Compatibility: Can be used for testing spark plugs (glow plugs), sensors, and actuators, complementing the diagnostics of the ignition system and the electrical system.

Application Areas

This professional multimeter is the ideal tool for the following areas:

  • Vehicle Diagnostics: Comprehensive electrical measurements in passenger and commercial vehicles.
  • Cooling Systems: Temperature and voltage measurements for checking coolant pumps and fans.
  • Air Conditioning and Climate Control: Testing of pressure switches and temperature sensors.
  • E-Mobility: Supplementing voltage and leakage testing of HV components (while observing appropriate safety regulations).
  • General Electrical Work: General electrical measurements and troubleshooting performed in the workshop environment.

This universal multimeter is the perfect combination of accuracy, safety, and versatility, making it an indispensable partner for precise work for every professional user.
