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
