Range of Applications Rugged housing design

The rugged plastic housing and the spring-loaded bearing jewels
• Schools of the moving-coil mechanism protect the meter against damage
• Vocational schools in the case of mechanical stress. The protective rubber cover and
• Craft shops the carrying pouch offer special protection under adverse operat-
ing conditions. Both are available as accessories.
The handheld multimeter METRAmax 2 was developed in coop-
eration with a renowned German manufacturer of educational
