The Keithley 6517B/E is a 5½-Digit Digital Multimeter DMM that offers accuracy and sensitivity specifications unmatched by any other meter of this type. It also offers a variety of features that simplifies measuring high resistances and the resistivity of insulating materials. With reading rates of up to 425 readings/ second, the 6517B is also significantly faster than competitive electrometers, so it offers a quick, easy way to measure low-level currents.
Its internal battery backed memory buffer can store up to 50,000 readings, allowing users to log test results for longer periods and to store more data associated with those readings. This model also provides fast reading rates to the internal buffer (up to 425 readings/second) and to external memory via the IEEE bus (up to 400 readings/second). Several connector modifications have been incorporated to address modern connectivity and safety requirements.
