Fluke 179 True RMS Digital Multimeter with built-in thermometer

The Fluke 179 True RMS Digital Multimeter combines electrical measurement, temperature sensing, and diagnostic capability in a single instrument for industrial and utility troubleshooting. It delivers True RMS AC/DC voltage and current measurements alongside resistance, capacitance, frequency, continuity, and diode testing. The integrated thermometer eliminates the need for a separate probe, measuring temperature from −40 °C to +400 °C with ±(1.0% + 10) accuracy.
