VC97A 4000-Count True RMS Auto Range Multimeter, NCV

The VC97A is the 4000-count model of the VC98 auto-range series. It measures DC voltage to 1000V at ±(0.5%+5) and current to 20A, and adds capacitance up to 40mF, frequency to 10MHz, duty cycle and temperature. NCV, True RMS, Max/Min data hold and REL measurement are included, and ranging can be automatic or manual.

Key features

• DCV 400mV to 1000V ±(0.5%+5); ACV 4V to 750V ±(0.8%+10)
• DCA and ACA 400μA to 20A; resistance 400Ω to 40MΩ ±(0.8%+2)
• Capacitance 40nF to 40mF ±(2.5%+5), frequency 10Hz to 10MHz, duty cycle, temperature -40℃~1000℃ ±(1.0%+5)
• True RMS, NCV, Max/Min data hold, REL, backlight
• Diode, hFE and continuity (below about 30Ω) tests, anti-shock protection, two AAA cells; safety rating CAT.III 600V

Applications

Electrical maintenance up to 1000V DC, electronics repair and HVAC service with temperature.

Choosing within the series

The VC98 auto-range series has three models with the same housing and Max/Min, REL and duty cycle functions. The VC97A is the 4000-count model without an analog bar. The VC99 has the same function set at 6000 counts, adds an analog bar display, and extends capacitance to 60mF. The VC87 also has 6000 counts and an analog bar, adds VSD voltage measurement for variable frequency drives and frequency to 30MHz, but has no NCV.
