Data Sheet True RMS Bench Multimeters 2831E and 5491B True RMS Bench Multimeters with Dual Display The B&K Precision models 2831E and 5491B are versatile and dependable bench multimeters suitable for applications in education, service and repair, and manufacturing requiring basic and reliable measurements. Additionally, these instruments enhance your productivity with built-in math functions and USB connectivity, features not found in other bench meters in this price category. Math operations Rel, Max/Min, dBm, dB, %, and Hold provide educators with a convenient tool to teach basic math concepts. Resolution Count Features & benefits The 2831E and 5491B take typical multimeter measurements such as volts, ohms, and amps with great accuracy, stability, and basic VDC accuracy of 0.02% on the 5491B and 0.03% on the 2831E. The meters are also capable of measuring frequency, period, continuity, and performing diode tests. Readings can be taken at a maximum rate of 25 readings/sec with measurement rates selectable between slow, medium, and fast. Thes multimeters were designed for cost-conscious users requiring a basic and dependable meter with a broad range of features offered at a value price. to 50,000 count display resolution display to indicate two measurements to 25 readings per second measurement volt and amp measurement over wide frequency range (ACV 100 kHz/ACI 20 kHz) I Limit mode for Pass/Fail testing math functions: Rel, Max/Min, dBm, dB, %, Hold, Compare I CATI (1000 V)/CATII (300 V) Protection (Virtual Com) and RS232* interface compatible Technical data subject to change © B&K Precision Corp. 2021
