The Hioki DT4200 Digital Multimeter Series offers a range of high-performance multimeters for professionals and industrial users alike. The DT4256 is a versatile digital multimeter designed to provide top-level safety and reliability while delivering a range of measurement functions.
- Hioki DT4221: This model is a compact digital multimeter with a variety of measurement capabilities, including voltage, current, resistance, frequency, and temperature.
- Hioki DT4222: This model is similar to the DT4221 but without the capacitance measurement capability.
- Hioki DT4223: This model is similar to the DT4222 but with the capacitance and temperature measurement capabilities.
- Hioki DT4252: This model is designed for measuring low-level currents, with a range of 2mA to 20mA.
- Hioki DT4253: This model is similar to the DT4252 but with a higher current measurement range of 2mA to 200mA.
- Hioki DT4255: This model is designed for measuring high voltages and currents, up to 600V and 10A, respectively.
- Hioki DT4256: This model is similar to the DT4255 but with slightly higher voltage and current measurement capabilities (up to 1000V and 20A, respectively).
- Hioki DT4261: This model has a high resolution and accuracy and is designed for use in industrial settings.
- Hioki DT4281: This model is designed for high-speed measurement and can measure up to 120,000 times per second.
- Hioki DT4282: This model is similar to the DT4281 but also includes a built-in data logger for recording measurements over time.
With CAT IV 600 V and CAT III 1000 V ratings, the DT4256 is a multifunctional digital multimeter that can measure DC current levels from 60.00mA to 10.00A. It also accepts AC clamp sensors and features a voltage detection function.
The DT4256’s low-pass filter function allows you to accurately measure the fundamental wave alone by eliminating harmonic components, making it ideal for measuring output voltage on the secondary sides of inverters. Additionally, the true RMS measurement capability ensures accurate measurement of even distorted current waveforms.
Measurement data can be downloaded, reviewed, and saved to a computer using the optional Communication Package DT4900-01. The computer and multimeter are electrically isolated by means of optical communications, ensuring safe data transmission.
Designed and manufactured in Japan, the DT4256 offers high-quality construction and is backed by a 3-year warranty for added peace of mind. It is essential to use an instrument that suits the measurement location for safe measurements. The IEC 61010 categorizes the locations in which instruments are used into a series of safety-based measurement categories (ranging from CAT II to CAT IV), and the DT4256 meets these requirements.
