Manufacturing "A meter like this would be a tremendous safety benefit when working on various packaging machines and conveyor lines. These systems get quite large and often the control panel is located on the opposite side of the various motors and electrical connections. This would allow me to safely read voltage measurements without trying to reach across the machines to see the meter display or have to open motor connection boxes to try and read voltage while trying to troubleshoot a problem. I would love to have this meter in my tool box." J.G., Florida "As an Engineering Technician in an automated manufacturing facility, I find many instances where having a remote display on my DMM would make my job both easier and safer. For example, I regularly need to set the zero and span of strain gauge amplifiers (Load Cells). To do this I can monitor the value on the HMI but, the HMI's are up to 20 feet away from the Load Cells. This means I have to walk back and forth, often around the equipment, or get a second pair of eyes to assist me on the job. Having a remote display on a DMM would allow me to monitor the output in real-time" A.S., California "Asphalt plant controls and power system cabinets contain numerous motor starters, circuit breakers, motor overloads and heavy wiring to accommodate the 480 volt, three-phase power. A common issue is where to place your meter while you are troubleshooting. The cabinets are often 6 foot tall and have wall to wall components with little room to spare for places to put your meter so, you can see the display and safely reach the connection point you are trying to troubleshoot. A remote display meter addresses concerns and issues I face in my daily tasks at my job." J.M., Iowa 33
