Portable Capacitance Tester for Electronics Work

The MASTECH MS6013 is a handheld digital capacitance meter built for technicians, engineers and students who need to verify capacitor values quickly. It covers nine ranges from 200pF to 20mF, spanning the vast majority of components found in repair shops and labs. A 21mm LCD shows readings up to 1999 counts for clear visibility.

Simple Operation with Zero Adjustment

Power comes from a single 9V battery (NEDA 1604 or 6F22 006P) and a low-battery symbol appears on the display when replacement is needed. An external knob lets you adjust the display zero by approximately ±20pF before each session, which removes residual offset from the test leads. Overload is indicated by a "1" on the screen, and a 100mA/250V fuse protects the input circuitry.

Check Your Measurement Needs First

The instrument is specified for one-year accuracy at 18°C to 28°C with up to 80% relative humidity, so verify that your environment matches these conditions. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 40°C; storage range extends from -10°C to 50°C. Excitation voltage peaks at 2.8V, so confirm the capacitors under test can tolerate this level. The unit measures 31.5mm by 91mm by 189mm and weighs 240g with the battery installed.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the MS6013 reads correctly after turning it on?

Connect a known good capacitor within the 200pF to 20mF range and confirm the 21mm LCD shows a stable value up to 1999 counts.

What comes with the MS6013 and what must I supply?

The meter includes safety test probes; you must provide a 9V NEDA 1604 or 6F22 006P battery and a 100mA/250V fuse for protection.

Which capacitance range on the MS6013 covers general-purpose electrolytics and ceramics?

The 9 ranges from 200pF to 20mF cover most capacitors used in labs, production and service work.
