Amprobe AM-560 Advanced HVAC Multimeter

(5 customer reviews)

  • Measures AC/DC voltage up to 1000 V, AC/DC current, resistance, frequency, capacitance, temperature, and duty cycle
  • Dual thermocouple takes simultaneous temperature readings on low and high side of an HVAC system
  • Low pass filter accurately measures voltage on variable frequency drives
  • Non-contact voltage detection enhances safety
  • Audible continuity quickly identifies shorts and opens
  • Diode test to verify diode polarity
  • Data hold freezes the reading on the display for further analysis
  • Peak hold (crest) captures and holds the peak value of a voltage or current surge
  • MIN/MAX recording records min/max measurements over time to show voltage fluctuations
  • Relative zero mode displays the difference between the actual reading and a stored reference value and may be used with any function or range
  • CAT IV 600 V/CAT III 1000 V safety rated for high voltage environments

Description

The AM-560 autoranging digital multimeter is specifically designed for advanced HVAC applications. This HVAC multimeter offers a full set of professional digital multimeter features to measure a complete range of electrical parameters and key functions for HVAC applications. Dual thermocouples take differential temperature measurements; a low pass filter enhances accuracy on variable frequency drive measurements; and capacitance can be used to check motor startup capacitors. The AM-560 also features micro amps for flame sensor troubleshooting, non-contact voltage detection, and a CAT IV safety rating.

  1. plumbingpro58

    Great product.

    Bought this when my Fieldpiece went missing. Very happy with the performance and ease of use. Have not received anew inaccurate reading yet.

    ✔ Yes, I recommend this product.

  2. Miswede

    HVAC mulitimeter

    I purchased this for my work place and I had never bought this item in this brand before. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality and workmanship of this multimeter. My field crew is very happy with it’s accuracy and ease of use. I will be buying more as needed

    ✔ Yes, I recommend this product.

    This product gets the job done

    This dmm have help me diagnose so many issue with the customers cars and the ac in them. It has so many features that some one them I am still learning to use I highly recommend this product to any auto shop

    ✔ Yes, I recommend this product.

  4. Deckstein62025

    Great meter

    I work in HVAC and I currently have this meter. I got this after my field piece bit the dust. This meter does everything I need it to do and more. Accurate amp draws and accurate ohm readings. Definitely a satisfied user.

    ✔ Yes, I recommend this product.

  5. Moeek8209
