Fluke 233 Remote

Display Multimeter

Imagine the possibilities

Application Ideas

Use this booklet to see how people in a variety of situations could

use the Fluke 233 Remote Display Multimeter. These are real

quotes from customers in the ﬁeld. They responded to the Imag-

ine the Possibilities contest which asks people to tell us how they

could imagine using the 233 remote display meter.

These real-life uses should help you and your customers realize

what a versatile, powerful tool the 233 is. They are only limited by

their imagination in ways that it will help them be more productive.

Automotive

“An automotive technician’s pay is heavily based on produc-

tivity. Any tool that saves you time makes you money. There

are many routine tasks where this meter would help to do

just that. I work out of 3 bays and often on several cars at

once. Multi-tasking is a necessity. If I want to monitor para-

sitic drain on a battery of one car while doing something

else two bays away, this meter would allow me to do that.

Another reality of the job is having to do more from the

driver’s seat. With electronic throttle control you can no

longer manipulate the throttle from under the hood or

without being tethered to the scan tool. With this meter,

underhood temperatures and readings can be monitored

from the driver’s seat without having to route the meter

leads or strain to see the display. At the same time, this

allows shorter leads to be used eliminating the worry of

them being pinched, tripped over, or falling onto a hot

exhaust pipe.“ M.H., Nebraska

“We sometimes need to hook a meter to a control module

and then drive the lift truck around while taking measure-

ments. Sometimes the meters can’t be mounted in a location

that is easy to read while operating the lift trucks. With the

Fluke 233, we could connect the base unit up to take mea-

surements and mount the remote display on the instrument

panel. This would be much safer than what we do today.”

J.H., Kentucky

“I think that remote display would be great to sit in front of

the windshield while the test leads are connected under the

hood. There are many situations where I need to be inside

the cab cranking the engine while looking at the display

and that is impossible with conventional multimeters. Often

times a second technician is necessary to look at a display

or to crank the engine. The Fluke 233 would likely increase

productivity and improve technician efﬁciency in many sce-

narios. I think it would also enhance personal safety because

I am often near rotating engine components while trying to

hold and read a display. I could connect and stand back and

look at the display while in a safe location.” S.B., Missouri

Automotive

“As a heavy duty charging system service technician and

trainer, a large part of my job includes monitoring and com-

paring voltages and current ﬂow from a generator all the

way to a set of batteries that may be up to 30 feet away on

a longer truck. Having a meter with a remote display would

allow me to give an on vehicle training session without

having to force course attendees too follow me back and forth

and remember readings. As diesel engine compartments get

hotter and louder, the option of monitoring voltages from a

cooler, safer, quieter distance makes more and more sense

everyday.” N.N., Illionis

“This is an excellent idea. With today’s auto and diesel

technology we are constantly troubleshooting electric circuits

related to fuel injection, general electrical, sensor voltage,

open circuit resistance etc. I can’t tell you how many times

I have had to crawl under a vehicle, at times having one

person hold the meter while I checked for voltage in some

obscure location and having to fumble with limited length

wires. This totally solves my problem of even having to use

another person! Keep up the good work.” B.N., New Jersey

“This tool would be helpful when checking transmission

solenoid problems. It would eliminate the tedious process

of running long wires from under the car, or the front of the

car, putting an end to wondering if the length of the wires

is affecting the results. It would be very helpful when check-

ing the signals for all sorts of switches and sensors while

driving down the road. The meter could be in the engine

compartment and there wouldn’t be any wires hanging out

of the vehicle to be damaged. Another beneﬁt would be

able to check electrical systems without having to ask some-

one to turn on the system or to read the meter for you.”

Cranes

“I would use the Fluke 233 on overhead bridge and gantry

cranes. There are many times a reading must be taken on a

moving crane. The only way to get such a reading is to have

a man “ride” the crane, which is very unsafe. Also, there are

many times when the control panel is in a location that pre-

vents the operating technician to see the moving equipment,

also very unsafe. This meter could very possibly save lives.”

T.T., Texas

“It would be nice to hook the Fluke 233 up to an overhead

hoist, remove the display and be a safe distance away from

the high voltage in the relay box. I could hook the meter up

to check the amperage draw on the contactor coils to ﬁnd

intermittent problems when the coils get warm. Right now I

have been using my Fluke 87V with 25 foot extension leads

to perform this task. Not the safest, but the only way I can

do the testing that needs to be done. Another great applica-

tion is testing the electrical circuits and coils on the mobile

cranes. Most of the time there is no operator to run the unit

while I watch the meter. With this meter that problem would

be solved.” R.A., North Dakota

“This meter would be great when working on Tower Cranes.

It would allow the operator to monitor the power coming

into the crane as he is operating the crane. We sometimes

have issues with the power supply on our cranes and this

would be an easy way for us to monitor the power supply.”

C.E., Wisconsin

“Sometimes taking motor current readings on an overhead

crane can be very troublesome. With this meter I could attach

a current probe and then attach the probe to a motor lead in

the electrical panel. Then when I am clear of the crane, I can

run the crane. With the remote display I can safely monitor

the current readings from a safe location. Whether a crane

runs on AC or DC power the risk of electrocution is always a

present hazard. Thank you for creating the tools I need to do

my job safer.” L.M., Indiana

“I repair overhead traveling electric cranes. There are many

times when I am electrically troubleshooting the crane in

tight and cramped situations. Many of the panels do not have

any room inside to lay a large meter down, so you have to

try and ﬁnd somewhere outside the panel. However, there

is often no spot outside for a large meter either. To be able

to detach the display and set it in a small area would be

awesome.” F.P., Illinois

“The Fluke 223 will allow our Maintenance Technicians to

monitor overhead crane parameters while the crane operates

without having to “ride the crane”. This will enhance safety

on our cranes with catwalks. We will now be able to monitor

cranes without catwalks, which we previously couldn’t moni-

tor during operation.” B.F., Nebraska
