of situations could use the Fluke 233 Remote Display Multimeter. These are real quotes from customers in the field. They responded to the Imagine the Possibilities contest which asks people to tell us how they could imagine using the 233 remote display meter. These real-life uses should help you and - Fluke 233 | Fluke 233 Application Guide - Page 3

With the Fluke 233, we could connect the base unit up to take measurements and mount the remote display on the instrument panel. This would be much - Fluke 233 | Fluke 233 Application Guide - Page 6
Automotive "As a heavy duty charging system service technician and trainer, a large part of my job includes monitoring and comparing voltages and current flow from a generator all the way to a set of batteries that may be up to 30 feet away on a longer truck.

"It would be nice to hook the Fluke 233 up to an overhead hoist, remove the display and be a safe distance away from the high voltage in the relay box. I could hook the meter up to check the amperage draw on the contactor coils to find intermittent problems when the coils get warm. Right now - Fluke 233 | Fluke 233 Application Guide - Page 10
I am electrically troubleshooting the crane in tight and cramped situations. Many of the panels do not have any room inside to lay a large meter down, so for a large meter either. To be able to detach the display and set it in a small area would be awesome." F.P., Illinois "The Fluke 223 will allow - Fluke 233 | Fluke 233 Application Guide - Page 11

"What an excellent idea the remote display multimeter is! This would be an ideal tool for working in the back of electronic equipment racks. When working on rack-mounted equipment, you often have to attach probes in awkward locations in the rack, and trying to read a meter inside the rack, sometimes - Fluke 233 | Fluke 233 Application Guide - Page 14
to test and repair aging electronic circuits. Fluke 233 would ease the troubleshooting of display driver circuitry of an HP-35. With a detachable display, I would be able to monitor the outputs I'm testing without having to divert my attention to a meter at the side of my workbench, thus eliminating - Fluke 233 | Fluke 233 Application Guide - Page 15

Fluke 233 would be of great value. Examples are working on overhead lights, rooftop HVAC units, PTAC units, or simply lighting in the hallways. Since we almost always work alone this meter the pivot panel 10-20 feet away.
