Function Fluke 233 170 Series Fluke 233 Highlights
Display Wireless Fixed
Provides added flexibility in common measurement scenarios. Allows
you to place the removable display where you can see it and then put
the meter where it is convenient for you.
Temperature (+) 400°C (+) 400°C (179 Only)
Same temperature measurement capability as the 179. Built in
thermometer conveniently allows you to take temperature readings
without having to carry a separate instrument.
Backlight
Yes (bright white back-
light)
179 and 177 Only
(Green)
The Fluke 233 has larger display digits than the 170 Series and
unlike the 179 and 177 it has a bright white backlight for easier
reading in low-light environments.
Safety rating
CAT IV 600 /
CAT III 1000 V
CAT IV 600 /
CAT III 1000 V
The Fluke 233 has the same safety rating for use in 600 V CAT IV and
1000 V CAT III environments, as the 170 Series. Meaning it has been
engineered to withstand voltage spikes of 8 kilovolts and help protect
users against the hazards of arc flash.
