simpson 260-8 & 260-8P VOM
Nothing beats a Simpson 260-8 for monitoringfluctuating trends and rates. Portable yet with benchtop accuracy,the 260-8 is ideal for use anywhere -- workshop, lab or in thefield. The 260-8P features an additional resettable overloadprotection circuit and audible continuity checking. Both versionscome with batteries, manual and full-size test leads with threadedprobe tips and screw-on alligator clips.
- Easy to operate -- two knobs control theselection of functions and ranges
- More than 20 measurement ranges for DC voltageａnd current, AC voltage and current, resistance
- Large, tri-colored dial with mirrored scale toprevent parallax error
- Reverse recessed safety jacks prevent operatorａnd tool contact with electrical connections
- Rugged phenolic case with reinforced walls formaximum durability
- Self-shielding taut-bａnd meter movement providesadded shock resistance
When a Digital Multimeter won’t do the Job
Professionals have long recognized that a Simpson 260 analog meter is superior to
the best DMM when monitoring fluctuating trends and rates.
The 260-8 features more attributes than its predecessors. Standard and highenergy
fusing in conjunction with diode network meter movement protection makes
the 260-8 the best combination of quality and affordability.
The 260-8P has an additional relay overload protection circuit that is resettable and
also provides audible continuity checking.
• 36 Measurement Ranges - Covers both AC and DC Voltage and Current
measurements, as well as resistance testing
• Connections Safeguarded - Standard size reverse/recessed safety jacks
prevent operator and/or tool contact with electrical connections of the
instrument
• Overload Protection - Diode network protects instrument from overload
damage during use (260-8P and 260-8PRT only)
• Rugged Construction - The Phenolic case is designed with heavy reinforced
walls for maximum durability; self-shielding taut-bａnd provides added shock
resistance for the meter movement
• Portable, for the Workshop, Lab, or in the Field - Portable enough to
carry, with benchtop accuracy
• Versatile- Full-size test leads with threaded probe tips for screw-on alligator
clips. Eliminates the need to change test leads while working
• Simple Operation- Two knobs control the selection of ranges and functions
