high LCD multi-meter for measuring DC and AC voltage, DC and AC current,
Resistance and Capacitance, Frequency, temperature, duty circle, Transistor, Diode
and Continuity test. Design parameter: unit indication, data hold (HOLD), relatively
measuring (REL), AUTO/MANUAL range, auto off and buzzer sounds, etc.
The Dual-slop A/D converter CMOS technology for auto-zero, polarity
selection and over-range indication. Full overload protection is provided. Because
of its outstanding features, it is most suitable for use on production lines or for lab,
R & D, mainten ance and repair work.
