The B&K Precision models 885 and 886 synthesized in-circuit LCR/ESR

meters are the first handheld meters of this type on the market, with a wide

range of test frequencies up to 10 kHz for model 885 and 100 kHz for

model 886, many measurement parameters including Z, L, C, DCR, ESR, D,

Q, and Ø as well. The 885 and 886 are designed for both component

evaluation on the production line and fundamental impedance testing for

benchtop applications. With a built-in direct test fixture, you can test the lead

components very easily. The optional 4-wire test clip can give a convenient

connection to larger components and assemblies with the accuracy of 4-wire

testing. The LCR meters offer fast, reliable, and versatile testing at low cost,

making the 885 and 886 the most advanced handheld LCR meters available

on the market today.
