The Fluke 87V Industrial Multimeter offers the accuracy and detail needed to troubleshoot motor drives and plant automation. It works well for power distribution and electromechanical equipment, even in loud and high-energy places. A low pass filter supports accurate frequency measurements on VFDs and captures intermittent as fast 250 µS.
Use the 87V to measure AC current up to 10 A directly. You can also use an optional clamp for high current measurements. to 200 kHz, plus % duty cycle, resistance, continuity and diode test.
It has a built-in thermometer. You can take temperature readings without carrying a separate tool. Plus, with its bright, two-level backlit display you’ll be able to see the results better in dim light.
Correctly measure pulse-width modulated motor drive signals.
The Fluke 87V takes the guesswork out of drive system troubleshooting. It includes a unique function for accurately measuring noisy at the VFD and at the motor terminals. Special shielding blocks high frequency, high-energy noise generated by large drive systems.

The Fluke 87V Industrial Multimeter offers great resolution and accuracy. It helps troubleshoot motor drives, plant automation, and power distribution.
This tool works well for electromechanical equipment, even in loud and high-energy places. Also effective at high altitudes. The 87V is designed so you can work more efficiently.
- Easy-access door for fast battery changes without breaking the calibration seal
- Analog bar graph for fast changing or unstable signals
- Large digit display with bright, two-level backlight for easier reading in low light
- Touch Hold keeps readings on display even after removing probes
The 87V lets you identify complex electrical problems fast. It supports accurate measurements on VFDs using a low-pass filter. The meter also captures intermittents as fast as 250 µS using Peak Capture. Specially designed shielding blocks high-frequency, high-energy noise generated by large drive systems from your measurements.
Built to highest safety standards
The team updates all the inputs in the 87V to the third edition of EN 61010-1. They receive ratings for CAT III 1000 V and CAT IV 600 V. The meter is designed to withstand spikes of more than 8000 V. You will hear an alert if the test leads are in the wrong input jacks for the measurement.
Removable holster with built in test lead and probe storage for convenience
The 87V has a removeable holster that also holds a test probe during testing for easier viewing. Relative mode lets you remove test lead resistance, improving accuracy of low-resistance measurements. To make your life easier, the 87V can fit into a magnetic hanger. This helps you set it up and view it while keeping your hands free for other tasks.
