Fluke 1587 FC Insulation Multimeter, True-RMS 1000 Volt Insulation & DMM with PI DAR Tests and Low-Pass Filter

Fluke 1587 FC Insulation Multimeter, True-RMS 1000 Volt Insulation & DMM with PI DAR Tests and Low-Pass Filter

• The Fluke 1587 FC Insulation Multimeter is a dual-purpose tester combining insulation resistance measurement up to 1000 volts and a full true-RMS digital multimeter. It includes selectable insulation test voltages (50, 100, 250, 500, 1000 V), timed PI / DAR ratio tests, a low-pass filter for accurate readings on motor drive variable frequency drives, and functions such as AC/DC voltage, resistance, continuity, capacitance, frequency and temperature.
• Features:
  • Insulation resistance range from 0.01 megaohm to 2 gigaohm with selectable test voltages.
  • Live-circuit detection that inhibits insulation test if terminal voltage exceeds safe threshold (>30 volts).
  • Low-pass filter for dealing with noise from VFD and motor drive circuits.
  • True-RMS multimeter functions including AC/DC voltage, current, resistance, continuity, capacitance, frequency, diode test and temperature.
  • Includes remote probe, test leads, alligator clips, K-type thermocouple, carrying case and documentation.

The Fluke 1587 FC Plastic Insulation Multimeter gives electrical and maintenance professionals a versatile tool combining reliable insulation resistance testing with full DMM capabilities, especially useful in factories or facilities using VFD-driven equipment.

Q: What insulation voltages are supported?
A: It supports test voltages of 50, 100, 250, 500 and 1000 volts for insulation resistance tests.

Q: Does this meter prevent unsafe tests when circuits are live?
A: Yes. It includes live-circuit detection that inhibits insulation testing if voltage above safe threshold is detected.

Q: Is it suitable for environments with motor drives or VFD?
A: Yes. The included low-pass filter helps reduce interference from variable frequency drive signals.
