Pocket-size digital multimeter EM3081

The aFe Power EM3081 is a compact 3 1/2-digit digital multimeter designed for portable electrical testing. It measures DC and AC voltage, DC current, resistance, diode function and continuity. The box-type form factor makes it easy to carry in a tool bag or pocket for field work.

Operating range and display behaviour

The meter operates from 0 to 40 degrees Celsius at up to 75 percent relative humidity and can be stored from -10 to 50 degrees Celsius at up to 85 percent humidity. A 1999-count LCD updates roughly two to three times per second and shows over-range, negative polarity and low-battery warnings. Power comes from two included 1.5 V LR44 button cells.

Box-type build and daily handling

The pocket-sized enclosure uses a box-type design that protects the LCD and controls during transport. Test leads plug into the front terminals for standard bench or in-vehicle measurements. Users must remove the battery insulating piece before first use to activate the meter.

Questions about this item

How do I install the batteries in the EM3081 multimeter and what step is often missed?

Insert the two included LR44 1.5V button cells and remove the insulating piece before use; the meter will not power on if the piece remains in place.

What maintenance will the EM3081 need over time?

Replace the two LR44 button cells when the low-battery indicator appears on the 3 1/2-digit LCD display.

What is the first operating limit reached during sustained use of the EM3081?

The meter is rated for 0 °C to 40 °C at up to 75 % relative humidity; exceeding this range will affect accuracy first.
