Fluke 233 Fluke 233 Application Guide - Page 49

Utilities "While performing residential energy audits I often times will test the volts and amps of appliances to see which appliances are the biggest energy consumers. The Fluke 233 would be a great tool to have set-up and remotely monitor the draw while energizing/de-energizing from the circuit breaker. In the same application I would be able to show the home owner the results without having them near the appliance being tested. reducing the possibility of a curious customer shocking themselves." S.A., Colorado "If I had one of the Fluke 233 meters we would use it when working on one of the high power transmitters. Often times, we need to monitor test points in one location, but the controls are in an entirely different location." P.B., Indiana "We have recently started our new facility which is completely controlled by PLCs. At times they need to be at a computer screen while trying to test outputs as well as inputs from field devices. This ties up two people, while one could be doing both functions at the same time. Our staff is short, as are many staffs of companies around the country. We provide safe water from a sewerage treatment plant rated at 300 million gallons per day." C.F., Tennessee "What a fantastic idea! Working in the power production industry, there are many times when you test circuits in confined areas. Many of these places have limited room to hang or set a meter in an area where you can clearly read it. I often had to reposition myself to make it possible to test an electrical circuit AND be able to read the meter, then have to do it all over again if the meter slips or you have to change settings. In our industry, if a machine goes down we have minutes to get it back online before we incur peak charges. If less time is spent fumbling with a meter then more time can be focused on troubleshooting, thus saving money and frustration." M.W., California 49
