The HD160C is designed for profes­sional use in harsh environments.
The meter is unusually rugged and
reliable in everyday heavy use ap­plications. The meter is made using
waterproof construction to prevent
dirt, grime and moisture from enter­ing the case and causing inaccurate
readings or damaging shorts.
Built of tough, fire-retardant
thermoplastic resistant to grease
and chemical spills, with all sensi­tive components shock-mounted for
a drop resistance to at least eight
feet.
Model HD160C has an extended
voltage measurement capability of
1500 V dc and 1000 V ac, unmatched
by any other line of digital multime­ters. The extended voltage ranges
can withstand transients up to 12 kV.

Data Sheet

General Specifications

Display 4 digit LCD, 9999 counts, with annunciators, menu features and 41 segment bargraph.
Polarity Indication Automatic
Input overload indication OL, -OL.

Low Battery Indication B; less than 50 hours battery life remain, accuracy is no longer guaranteed
Display Update Rate 2/sec, nominal; 20/sec for bargraph.
Oper. Temp. 0 °C to +50 °C @ 0 to 75 % R.H.
Storage Temp. -20 °C to 60 °C @ 0 to 80 % RH, battery removed
Altitude 2000 meters - indoor use
Temperature coefficient 0.1 x (spec. accuracy)/°C (0 °C to 18 °C and 28 °C to 50 °C)
Fuse F 2 A/1500 V fuse (8 mm x 65 mm), I.R. 30 kA – Amprobe p/n FP700
