Introduction

The PM51A meter is a shirt-pocket size meter only 19 mm (.75 in) wide and weighing less than 85 g

(3 oz). With full functionality offering AC and DC voltage to 600 V, resistance to 40 MΩ, capacitance

to 300 µF, frequency to 1 MHz, continuity with beeper, and diode test. Fully autoranging, the PM51A

offers seven different measurement functions with 27 full ranges of measurement. The digital display

is oversized with large digits and icons in the display. In spite of its small size, the PM51A is full

safety rated to CAT III 300 V, CAT II 600 V, and is UL listed. No other meter offers this size with such

performance and high safety ratings.

Safety Information

•The PM51A Digital Multimeter is certified for cULus and EN61010-1:2001; CAT II 600 V, CAT III

300 V, class 2 and pollution deg. 2.

•This instrument is EN61010-1 certified for Installation Category II

(600 V). It may only be used to make measurements on energy limited circuits within equipment

and not directly connected to mains.

•This instrument is EN61010-1 certified for Installation Category III

(300 V). It is recommended for use with local level power distribution, appliances, portable

equipment, etc., where only smaller transient overvoltages may occur, and not for primary supply

lines, overhead lines and cable systems.

•Do not exceed the maximum overload limits per function (see specifications) nor the limits

marked on the instrument itself. Never apply more than 600 V between the test lead and earth

ground.

•Inspect the DMM, test leads and accessories before every use. Do not use any damaged part.

•Never ground yourself when taking measurements. Do not touch exposed circuit elements or test

probe tips.

•Do not operate the instrument in an explosive atmosphere.

•Exercise extreme caution when: measuring voltage >20 V // current >10 mA // AC power line with

inductive loads // AC power line during electrical storms // current, when the fuse blows in a

circuit with open circuit voltage > 600 V // servicing CRT equipment.

•Remove test leads from circuit before opening the case.

Making Measurements

All measurements described in this manual use the red test lead for positive (+) polarity and the

black test lead for ground reference (-) unless otherwise specified.

Power On and Off

Turn the rotary switch to turn the power ON or OFF.

Selecting Functions

Select measurement as shown in the diagram on the back of the meter.

V dc and V ac Functions

Rotate the rotary selector to the Vposition. V dc is the default function. The dc annunciator F

appears on the display. Press the SELECT button momentarily to select V ac. The ac annunciator B

appears on the display.

Resistance, Continuity, Diode, and Capacitance Functions

•Turn the rotary switch to the Ω/R/G/position. Resistance is the default function.

1. Turn off power to the circuit being measured. Never measure resistance across a voltage source

or on a powered circuit.

2. Discharge any capacitors that may influence the reading.

3. Connect the test probes across the resistance.

4. Read the display. If OL appears on the highest range, the resistance is too large to be measured

or the circuit is an open circuit.

•A continuous beep tone indicates a complete circuit.

1. Turn off power to the circuit being measured.

2. Discharge any capacitors that may influence the reading.

3. Connect the test probes across the resistance or two measurement nodes.

4. Listen for the tone that indicates continuity (< 120 Ω).

•Press the SELECT button momentarily AGAIN to select Diode test function. The annunciator G

appears on the display. The reading shows the approximate voltage drop across the test leads.

Normal forward voltage drop (forward biased) for a good silicon diode is between 0.400 V to

0.900 V. A reading higher than that indicates a leaky diode (defective). A zero reading indicates a

shorted diode (defective). OL indicates an open diode (defective). Reverse the test leads

connections (reverse biased) across the diode. The digital display shows OL if the diode is good.

Any other readings indicate the diode is defective.

•Press the SELECT button momentarily AGAIN to select the Capacitance function.

1. Turn off power to the circuit being measured.

2. Discharge the capacitor using a 100 kW resistor.

3. Free at least one end of the capacitor from the circuit.

4. Connect the test probes across the capacitor.

5. Read the display.

Frequency Function

Turn the rotary switch to the Hz position to select the frequency function.

This function is set only at the highest input sensitivity mainly for measuring small electronic signals

below 20 V ac rms.

1. Connect the test probes to the signal source.

2. Read the display.

Additional Features

HOLD and 30 ms MAX HOLD Modes

HOLD mode freezes the display for later viewing. Press the HOLD button momentarily to activate or

to exit the Hold feature.

MAX mode captures voltage signals that have durations as short as 30 ms (milliseconds) within a

single range, and has automatic up range capability. This feature is available in V dc and V ac

functions. Press the HOLD button for 1 second or more to activate or exit MAX mode.

XWWARNING

Hazardous voltages present at test leads may not be displayed when in HOLD

mode.

Auto-ranging

If the function selected has more than one range, the meter will auto-range to the best range and

resolution.

Product Maintenance

Maintenance

Do not attempt to repair this meter. It contains no user serviceable parts. Repair or servicing should

only be performed by qualified personnel.

Cleaning

Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and mild detergent; do not use abrasives or solvents. If

the meter is not to be used for periods of longer than 60 days, remove the battery and store it

separately

Troubleshooting

If the instrument fails to operate, check battery, leads, and replace as necessary. Double check

operating procedure as described earlier in this manual. Refer to the LIMITED WARRANTY section

for obtaining warranty or repairing service.

Battery Replacement

If the meter starts up with persistent resetting display or with low battery icon Nturns on, replace

the battery. The meter uses one 3 V coin battery, IEC-CR2032.

To replace the battery

1. Turn off the meter and disconnect the test leads from live circuits.

2. Loosen the screw on the case bottom.

3. Lift the end of the case bottom nearest the input test leads until it unsnaps from the case top.

Replace the battery cover and tighten the screw. Recycle the battery using approved methods.

4. Replace the battery. Observe battery polarities with positive (+) faces up (towards the case

bottom). Replace the case bottom, and ensure that the snap on the case top (near the LCD side)

is engaged.

5. Replace and tighten the screw.

XWWARNING

To avoid electrical shock, disconnect test leads from live circuits before opening

the case. Do not operate with open case.
