Power Quality Analyzer FLUKE 43B

Powerful FLUKE 43B oscilloscope for network and power supply analysis

The FLUKE 43B oscilloscope is an instrument that combines the functions of an electrical power quality analyzer, an oscilloscope, a multimeter, and a data logger in one device. This oscilloscope has everything needed to identify problems with tripping circuit breakers, overheating transformers, burnt motors, machines that do not operate correctly, whatever the issue. With the electrical power quality analyzer function, it is optimized for industrial measurements at the fundamental frequency of 50 Hz. Since its fundamental frequency range extends from 10 to 400 Hz, it is also ideal for aerospace, naval, and railway applications. The measurement results can be viewed and analyzed on the large graphical display of the oscilloscope.
