Fluke 2620A

The Hydra Series offers easy portability along with the Fluke built-in signal conditioning and Universal Input Module, at a price to fit your budget. You can easily retrieve data from the Hydra units via the RS-232 interface, or through a modem in upload or real-time mode. Channel information and measurement parameters can be set up directly from the front panel or your PC. Three models feature removable memory card data storage, internal memory storage, and direct real-time data transfer options. Should power fail, these instruments automatically resume data collection when power is restored.

The Hydra Series is extremely rugged and able to operate in diverse environments. Its operating range is 0 to 60ºC, and it is tested to stringent shock and vibration standards. The sturdy metal chassis of the Hydra effectively shields against electromagnetic interference, maintaining high measurement accuracy on low level signals. The analog circuitry is also isolated from the digital circuitry so you can measure high voltages directly (up to 300V ac rms). And it conforms to I.E.C., C.E and CSA safety standards. All set-up information is battery-backed, so it is immune to power failure. Hydra will return from a power loss and resume scanning, while all configuration information and stored data remain intact.

• Review the min/max and last readings from the front panel
• Channel 0 accepts standard test leads from the front panel for quick measurements
• Monitor a selected channel from the front panel
• Use the Channel function to configure measurement type and range for each individual channel
• Use the Memory Card Drive (in 2635A only) to store data and instrument configuration on a portable, non-volatile memory card and transfer collected data to your PC for later analysis
