EC&M's weekly product pick






























Available in three models, the PM series compact digital multimeters (DMM) have UL safety ratings as high as CAT III at 300V and CAT II at 600V. The DMMs are slightly larger than a credit card, 0.375 in. thick, and weigh less than 3 oz. They feature an oversized display, built-in leads, and measure AC/DC voltage, frequency, capacitance, and resistance with an audible continuity beeper. The PM51 features 4,000-count auto-ranging display frequency measurement as high as 2 MHz, and a capacitance range to 3,000 mF. The PM53 features a built-in non-contact voltage detector and AutoTect, which automatically adapts the meter to display VAC, VDC, or resistance modes. It measures transient protection to 4kV and overload protection to 450V. The PM55 features one-touch AutoTect, a built-in voltage detector, a 6,000-count auto-ranging display, and auto power off. It measures AC and DC current to 2,000 mA, frequency to 30 kHz, capacitance to 2,000 mF.
