What is the Fluke 80k-40?
The Fluke 80k-40 is a high-voltage probe specifically for use with digital multimeters to measure voltages accurately that regular probes just can’t handle. Whether you’re testing industrial equipment, power distribution gear, or high-voltage electronics, this probe safely and effectively expands your test capabilities.
Key Specifications:
Model: 80k-40
Voltage Range: 1 kV to 40 kV DC or Peak AC, 28 kV RMS AC
Division Ratio: 1000:1 (i.e., 1000x attenuation)
Input Resistance: 1000 MΩ
Weight: 350 grams
Origin: Made in U.S.A.
Part Number: 1608169
EAN: 0095969001120
The probe employs a 1000:1 attenuation ratio, meaning the voltage read by the multimeter is reduced by a factor of 1000 to make it manageable and safe for use with regular meters.
Why Choose the Fluke 80k-40?
Safety First: It is very unsafe to measure high voltage. The Fluke 80k-40 has the utmost safety in mind, protecting the user during operation in challenging conditions.
High Input Impedance: 1000 MΩ input resistance minimizes the loading effect on the circuit, which is critical for obtaining accurate readings, particularly in delicate electronics.
Build Quality: Fluke is a well-established worldwide brand that’s synonymous with accuracy and dependability. The Rev. 5 version shows sustained improvement and tuning based on feedback from users.
Wide Compatibility: This probe can be used with most digital multimeters that accept standard banana plug inputs, which makes it an extremely versatile tool to have around.
Applications:
Industrial Equipment Testing: Test high-voltage circuits in industrial automation, electrical cabinets, and power stations.
Laboratory Testing: Best for controlled laboratory testing and research and development where high-voltage testing is critical.
Utility Maintenance: Ideal for maintenance engineers maintaining or troubleshooting transformer sets, switchgear, and transmission lines.
For Educational Use: Ideal for educational institutions educating students on how to safely measure high voltages.
