3245 SOLAR HiTESTER Field measuring instruments Environmentally Friendly DMM The 3245 SOLAR HiTESTER digital multimeter has been developed with an emphasis on ecological considerations and safe design. The photovoltaic cell charges the lithium-ion main battery, which exhibits superb charging and discharging characteristics. Should the main battery charge become depleted, the hybrid power system automatically switches operation to the backup battery. So ecological considerations are satisfied without any of the typical inconveniences usually associated with solar-powered systems. Also, despite its vest-pocket size, the design conforms to CAT III (600V) and CAT IV(300V) safety standards for use on power lines. This newstyle DMM has significant safety features and remarkably improved operability over previous designs. Ecological and Safety Considerations Despite the compact size and low price, it satisfies CATIII (600V) and CATIV (300V) safety standards Hybrid power system incorporates both a solar-charged main battery and a backup battery The backup battery is used only when the main battery (charged by the solar cell) is discharged, until it is recharged by the solar cell and switched back into operation by the hybrid power system, resulting in both environmental friendliness and convenience. Vest-pocket sized CATIII (600V) and CATIV (300V) conformance Measuring only 60 (2.4") × 145 (5.7") × 23 (0.9") mm and weighing only 140 grams (4.9 oz), it fits easily in a pocket. Yet even at this size, the design satisfies CAT III (600V) and CAT IV (300V) safety standards for industrial power line measurements. Automatic power saving (after 30 minutes), auto and manual range selection and a display-hold function are included. ■ 3245 Specifications (accuracy at 23˚C±5˚C (73.4˚F±9˚F) and 80% rh or less) Range AC Voltage 4.200 V 42.00 V 420.0 V 600 V DC Voltage Accuracy Remarks ±2.3%rdg. ±8dgt.
