Comtest Distribution, accredited southern African partner to Fluke – global leader in handheld electronic test and measurement equipment has introduced a 2-channel version of the 4-channel CAT IV ScopeMeter®, released last year. The new two channel 190 Series II replaces the 199C, 196C and 192C models. The 215, the 225 and the 215/S will completely disappear when the Bushealth functionality is added in 2012. Only the Fluke 225/S will remain in the program for as long as components are available (estimated to be until mid-2012).
Fluke’s 190 Series II ScopeMeters are the first two and four-channel scopes on the market with 1000 V CAT III / 600 V CAT IV rating, bringing an unprecedented combination of performance and ruggedness into the field. These powerful scopes enable users to solve complex problems on-site - a vitally important factor to today’s productivity requirement.
The Fluke’s 190 Series II ScopeMeters have 60 MHz, 100 MHz or 200 MHz bandwidth, with up to 2.5 GS/s real time sample rate and 400 pico seconds resolution with built-in 5000 count multimeter. Connect-and-View™ to easily trigger on and display even complex waveforms. TrendPlot™ and ScopeRecord™ to capture or plot waveforms and measurements over extended time spans. It is also environmentally tested to meet IP-51 dust-proof and drip-proof rating and withstand 3g vibration or 30g shock.
Fluke expects the 4 channel 190 Series II to become their most popular model they estimate that 80% of their customers will purchase the higher-end model.
