Find. Repair. Validate. Report.

Fluke 279 FC is a full-featured digital multimeter with integrated thermal imaging that is designed to increase your productivity and confidence. The thermal multimeter helps you find, repair, validate, and report many electrical issues quickly, improving your ability to solve problems.

Locate the Problem Immediately

Thermal imaging multimeters are a first-line troubleshooting tool for electrical equipment that can check hot spots of high-voltage equipment and transformers from a safe distance, detect heating of fuses, wires, insulators, connectors, splices and switches. Scanning with the 279 FC's thermal imager reveals many electrical issues quickly and from a safe distance. By combining two tools into one, the thermal multimeter lightens the load and increases productivity. Scan with the thermal imager to find electrical problems rapidly and from a safe distance. Check hot spots on high-voltage equipment and transformers; identify heating of fuses, wires, insulators, connectors, splices and switches. The 279 FC now allows you to save, recall and review saved images on the meter. You'll be certain that you have the image you need before leaving moving on.

Communicate Your Results

With built-in Fluke Connect, transmit results wirelessly to a smartphone and save time on reporting to validate work is complete. Troubleshoot better by instantly trending and monitoring measurements live on your smartphone screen. Create and email reports right from the field.

Expanded Functionality

Compatible with iFlex (a flexible current clamp) to expand your measurement capabilities and get into tight, hard to reach spaces for current measurement (up to 2500 A AC). The large full-color LCD screen makes for easier and clearer viewing of images and readings. The 10+ hour rechargeable battery keeps you going all day long under normal conditions.
