Title: DMM Beta 1760/RMS
Post by: SkyHigh on August 08, 2017, 10:11:33 AM
I took a couple of pictures of my Beta 1760/RMS DMM for anybody who is intrested. The board and maybe also the shell is a rebranding from another brand, my question is does anybody know what brand? There are some numbers written on the board, it looks like it reads UR but mirrored with a number.

some specs:

                    Measuring range   Base accuracy
AC/DC voltage   110mV – 600V           ±0.8% - ±2%     rdg
AC/DC current   110μA – 10A           ±1.5% - ±2%     rdg
Resistance           110Ω –  40MΩ           ±1.2% - ±2.5%  rdg
Capacity           11nF – 40mF           ±5% - ±10% rdg ( up to11mF)
Frequency           1100Hz – 110 MHz   ±1.2% - ±1.5% rdg
Temperature   -32°C – 1000°C           ±3% - ±5% rdg
Diode test           3V dc                   ±10% rdg
Continuity           <30 Ω

After some digging around I found out that its a rebranded Major Tech MT 1887, the model Martin broke the selector on during his review 😅.

Rebranded means same hardware, different package, right?

Rebranded means same hardware, different package, right?

I think generally it means a different look;  i.e, a different logo / case colours,  but to me a re-brand doesn't include different dials settings;  I'm not sure it's a rebrand of the MT1887 as the dial settings are different which indicates the pcb is different;  a lot of meters can use the same chipsets and so they can appear similar in core features;  a popular chipset is "Cyrustek", which is the one in the Beta 1760/RMS DMM.
