Sanwa PC510A Digital Multimeter
The Sanwa PC510A is a rugged, handheld digital multimeter engineered for precise measurement of electrical parameters in weak‑current circuits. Its 3 5/6‑digit, 5 000‑count LCD—with a 52‑segment analog bargraph—updates at 5 Hz (digital) and 60 Hz (bargraph), delivering rapid, accurate readings for voltage, current, resistance, capacitance, frequency and temperature. Equipped with True RMS AC measurement, it faithfully captures both sinusoidal and non‑sinusoidal waveforms.
Automatic ranging and manual Range Hold simplify operation, while Data Hold, MAX/MIN recording, Peak Capture (5 ms), Relative mode and Zoom Bargraph functions provide versatile data analysis – all accessible via dedicated buttons. A built‑in auto lead resistance calibration ensures low‑ohm accuracy, and the RS‑232C interface (with optional USB adapter) enables seamless data logging to PC. Safety is assured by IEC 61010‑1 CAT III 600 V/CAT II 1000 V ratings and double insulation. Power is supplied by a single 9 V battery (NEDA 1604A/IEC 6F22) with low‑battery indication and 17‑minute auto‑power‑off.
With robust overload protection, fire‑retardant housing and a temperature‑compensated sensing circuit, the PC510A is ideal for field service, electronics repair and quality control in professional environments
