Fluke 8808A Digital Multimeter
The Fluke 8808A Digital Multimeter is a high-precision, user-friendly bench meter with 0.015% DC accuracy, ideal for manufacturing, R&D, and service applications. It features six customizable setup buttons for faster testing, a dual-display for measuring two parameters simultaneously, and a limit compare mode with pass/fail indicators to reduce production errors. With advanced functions like sensitive low-current measurement down to 100 nA, 2×4-wire ohms capability, and FlukeView® Forms integration for data analysis and reporting, the 8808A combines accuracy, convenience, and reliability in one rugged, professional-grade multimeter.
Description
The Fluke 8808A Digital Multimeter is a versatile, high-performance bench meter designed to deliver precise measurements with a basic DC voltage accuracy of 0.015%. It measures volts, ohms, amps, and frequency, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in manufacturing, R&D, development, and service environments. Despite its advanced capabilities, the 8808A is remarkably easy to use, even for unskilled operators, thanks to its six setup buttons on the front panel that function like radio presets. You can store frequently used measurement configurations and recall them instantly, eliminating the need for complex instructions and multiple manual setups.
To improve efficiency and reduce human error, the Fluke 8808A includes a limit compare mode with pass/fail indicators, making production testing faster and more reliable. Its clear display enunciators instantly show whether a test passes or fails, removing guesswork and minimizing errors, especially in borderline cases. The multimeter’s dual display feature allows you to measure two different parameters simultaneously—such as voltage and current—from the same test point, which simplifies troubleshooting and provides deeper insight into circuit behavior.
Designed with innovation in mind, the 8808A introduces a unique capability to measure sensitive low currents accurately. Unlike traditional meters that rely on the shunt method and introduce burden voltage errors, the Fluke 8808A uses a low-impedance operational amplifier and a current-to-voltage conversion technique, achieving high accuracy down to 100 nA resolution. This makes it ideal for applications like testing battery leakage current or working with sensitive electronic circuits.
For resistance measurements, the 2×4-wire ohms function allows you to perform 4-wire measurements using only two leads, solving the challenge of connecting to tiny surface-mount components while still delivering superior resolution and precision. The meter also integrates seamlessly with FlukeView® Forms Basic software, enabling users to document, analyze, and store measurements and generate professional reports. For enhanced customization, you can upgrade to FlukeView® Forms 3.0 with additional features and templates.
Built with Fluke’s industry-leading quality standards, the 8808A is engineered to withstand demanding environments while delivering consistent and reliable performance. Known worldwide for ruggedness and accuracy, Fluke ensures the 8808A exceeds its published specifications, giving professionals confidence in every measurement.
