Farnell element14 has strengthened its test and measurement portfolio with the addition of Keysight Technologies’ 34465A and 34470A TrueVolt range of Bench Digital Multimeters. The multimeters come in both 6½ and 7½ digit models. The instruments give engineers a selection of visual representations of measurement data in multiple ways on a 4.3-inch, high-resolution colour display, including advanced graphical capabilities such as trend and histogram charts, allowing engineers to get relevant information faster and document their results more easily.

Priced from £901, both models offer three acquisition modes: continuous running for typical measurements, data logging for easier trend analysis, and digitising for capturing transients.

Both instruments offer deeper memory for data storage up to 50,000 readings per second up to two million readings. It also measures very low current, having a 1 µA range with pA resolution with voltage ranges from 100 mV to 1,000 V. The new models also offer auto calibration to compensate for temperature drift.

The TrueVolt range eliminates noise, such as from an AC component from power lines or other environmental noise such as electromagnetic interference, from the true measurement using patented analogue-to-digital converter technology.

The multimeters offer three acquisition modes: continuous running for typical measurements, data logging for easier trend analysis, and a digitising for capturing transients. New capabilities include additional measurement and math functions, extended measurement ranges and advanced triggering.

Auto calibration compensates for temperature drift, allowing customers to maintain measurement accuracy throughout their workday. Both models also provide a data logging mode for easier trend analysis and a digitising mode for capturing transients.
