1 - PRESENTATION

The C.A. 5240 multimeter is intended to satisfy the everyday
requirements of electricity professionals :

- true RMS measurement

- 40,000 count digital display and 40 segment bargraph

- automatic or manual selection of measurement

- stops automatically after 30 minutes if a command or function has

not been activated

- possibility of permanent operation (see RANGE).

Various measurement accessories broaden the scope of application
or provide the multimeter with new functions.

See the list of accessories and references on the “ To Order ” page
(Documentation upon request).

Note : Always use accessories suitable for the voltage and the voltage
surge category of the circuit to be measured (as per IEC 1010).
