Fluke 8558A 8.5-Digit Multimeter

The Fluke 8558A 8.5-Digit Multimeter offers 5 mega-samples-per-second high-resolution digitizing for system automation in labs and manufacturing test environments. Fluke’s new high-speed system design and the industry’s fastest direct digitizing capability enable significant throughput increases for many automated system applications that require a combination of the highest speed and best accuracy. The superb accuracy is delivered over a wide measurement range, over nine functions, with an intuitive user interface on a color display.

The Fluke 8558A shares the same platform as the fully loaded 8588A Reference Multimeter. The platform features a common intuitive user interface with an easy-to-navigate menu structure for all configurations and matching SCPI-compliant commands for an automated environment. The 8588A platform guarantees a minimum of 100,000 readings per second at 4.5 digits across GPIB, USBTMC, or Ethernet, and an onboard data memory that can hold up to 15 million readings.
