New high-performance, portable oscilloscopes for harsh industrial environments
October 2014Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration
Fluke has introduced the first high-performance portable oscilloscopes with two or four independently insulated input channels, an IP51 dust and drip waterproof rating and a CAT III 1000 V/CAT IV 600 V safety rating.
Users can choose from 500, 200, 100 or 60 MHz bandwidth models. Especially designed for plant maintenance engineers, there is a choice of either a 2 or 4-channel scope for the harsh conditions of industrial electronics. A 5 000 count digital multimeter (DMM) is included in the 2-channel models.
The 190 Series II has up to four independent floating isolated inputs, up to 1000 V and a real- time sampling of up to 5 GS/s (depending on model and channels used). Frequency spectrum using FFT-analysis and automatic capture and REPLAY of 100 screens, as well as a deep memory of 10 000 points per trace waveform capture (scope mode), are all features of this new generation oscilloscope. The 190 Series II software features:
* Connect-and-View triggering for intelligent, automatic triggering on fast, slow and even complex signals.
* ScopeRecord Roll mode gives 30 000 points per input channel for low frequency signal analysis.
* TrendPlot paperless recorder mode with deep memory for long-term automatic measurements.
The 190 Series II has an impressive seven hours of battery operation using BP291, as well as an ‘easy access’ battery door for quick battery swaps in the field. The isolated USB host port allows for direct data storage to a USB memory device. The 190 Series II is compact, weighing in at only 2,2 kg, and features a security slot, locking the oscilloscope down with Kensington lock while unattended.
