Genuine Hioki 3256-50 digital multimeter from General Tech Services LLC, Saudi Arabia, with free Saudi Arabia shipping available.

Part No. 3256-50

Product Overview

The Hioki 3256-50 Digital HiTester is a digital multimeter designed with a terminal shutter interlock to help reduce incorrect test-lead connections. The interlock exposes only the appropriate input terminals for the selected measurement function, providing an additional safety feature during electrical testing.

The 3256-50 provides a maximum display reading of 5,610 digits together with a fast bar graph display. Its terminal shutter system is particularly useful for technicians who want to reduce the risk of connecting test leads to an incorrect terminal during measurement.

An auto-hold function automatically displays the maximum voltage or current and the minimum resistance value. The meter also conforms to IEC 1010 and is designed for practical electrical measurement and maintenance work.

Hioki has introduced the DT4252 as the successor to the 3256-50. For current purchasing requirements, General Tech Services can confirm availability and help identify a suitable current Hioki alternative based on the required measurement functions.
