Agilent U1240 Series Handheld
Digital Multimeters
Helping You Check and Fix More Installation
and Maintenance Bugs
Data Sheet
The Agilent U1240 Series handheld digital multimeters enable you to check
more with wider measurement ranges. They feature true RMS readings on their
10,000-count displays. The adjustable backlighting allows you to complete your
jobs even in subdued lighting conditions, or to simply prolong battery life. Your
maintenance tasks are greatly simplified due to the built-in switch counter,
harmonic ratio, dual and differential temperature capabilities, with just a press
of the button. The meters have a high safety rating with CAT III 1000 V and
CAT IV 600 V protection and are certified to CE and CSA standards. On top of
that, the U1240 Series comes with a certificate of calibration and test report –
at no extra cost.
