The VC 831 is the easiest device from the VC-800 reference series and still offers impressive functions for mechanics and technicians. TFT display Armed. Individual. Sensational.An angle-independent color display with excellent contrast, which is also individually configurable. Depending on the lighting conditions, the display can be either positive (dark digits on a light background) or negative (night mode). Revolutionary magnetic technology â both hands free for measuring tipsIncorporated in the housing, extra strong neodymium magnets ensure a secure hold at the control cabinet door. Thus, the device must no longer be placed on the ground when taking measurements. For measuring tasks on the construction site, one of the measuring tips can be magnetically fixed to the multimeter. Special measuring tips with incorporated ferromagnetic material adhere securely and firmly to the multimeter - but not to the control cabinet. One measuring tip together with the multimeter forms one unit in one hand and the other measuring tip in the other hand can be guided to the second measuring point. Fantastically flexible test leadsA silicone coating with wear indicator designed in two layers and colors provides some flexibility. The extremely fine wired construction, which is twisted for mechanical reinforcement with highly flexible and tear-resistant plastic fiber, enormously increases the flexibility. VOLTCRAFT brings this technology to series production of multimeters for the first time. Make it your deviceMany functions can be configured individually. Automatic switch-off after 5, 10, 15 or 30 min. Or always on. The background illumination for buttons and rotary switches can be set individually or always stay off. The beep sound during measurement range change can be turned on / off or the volume reduced.Impedance switchingThe LoZ function makes it possible to measure alternating voltages with low impedance. The lower internal resistance of the measuring device reduces the measurement deviations due to stray and ghost voltages. Delta measurementFor measuring deviations of a specified value. This allows you to focus on the positive and negative changes and does not have to reckon with all the time.Sample ratioMeasurement rate or duty cycle refers to phase angle control, switched-mode power supplies and other digital switched devices to determine the percentage value between ON (pulse) and OFF.Min MaxThe highest and lowest values of a series of measurements are saved and displayed.Display and keypad lockSubtly incorporated edges protect the display, the rotary switch and all the keys.An elaborately produced 2-component casing with integrated soft-rubber protection not only provides grip, but also protects the device during rough applications. Anti-tippingThe broad bearing surface made of soft rubber provides much more stability when the stand is folded out. Non-slipLying and standing with connected measuring leads - the measuring device remains in position. When stored without test leads, the rubberized edge protector prevents it from slipping even when the meter is lying on the display side. Built-in torchIt's easier to find your way in the dark to the fuse box with two built-in LED lights.Measuring jacks monitoringIf measuring lines are accidentally inserted into current measuring sockets, a warning sound and a warning message is emitted on the display (unless the selector switch is set to current measurement).Battery replacement safetyTo replace batteries or fuses the casing must be opened. For safety reasons, the measuring cables should not be connected. This measuring device is, unlike with simple conventional devices, designed in such a way that the housing cannot be opened when measuring lines are connected. You can only connect measuring lines after the housings are closed.Reliable readings thanks to ISO calibrationDiagnostics tools used in an environment that complies with ISO 9001 standards require ISO calibration. Moreover, most safety inspectors as well as accredited testing and certification bodies need to use ISO-certified equipment.This text is machine translated.
