Voltcraft VC171 Digital Multimeter

The Voltcraft Hand Multimeter VC 171 is your multimeter for electrical and electronic measurement tasks in the compact VC 100 series.

Delta Measurement: For measuring deviations from a specified value. This allows you to focus on positive and negative changes without having to constantly calculate.

Duty Cycle: Also known as the duty ratio, it allows you to determine the percentage value between ON (pulse) and OFF in phase control systems, switch-mode power supplies, and other digitally switched devices.

Sharp Display: An impressive, easily readable EBTN display in bright environments as well as in darkness. With a display diagonal of 5.6 cm (2.2 inches), all digits and symbols are presented significantly larger, reducing reading errors.

Display and Button Protection: Discreetly integrated edges protect the display, rotary switch, and all buttons. A meticulously produced 2-component housing with integrated soft rubber protection not only provides a good grip but also protects the measuring device during tougher applications.

Tip-Resistant: The wide soft rubber base provides significantly more stability when the stand is extended.

Non-Slip: Whether lying down or standing with connected measuring leads, the device stays in position. When stored without measuring leads, the rubberized edge protection prevents slipping even when the device is lying on the display side.

Flashlight Function: The built-in LED light makes it easier to find your way in the dark to the fuse box.

Non-Contact Voltage Detection: An NCV sensor is integrated into the front of the housing. It detects the electromagnetic field generated by a live wire. This helps locate the position that leads to a break in a pinched extension cord, for example.
