User named setups With readable names (plain Brings better ease of use to the 125,
text names) allowing the user to give plain text
identifiers to test-data when stored.
All four cursor keys are used for
selecting the character position and
the character to be inserted, which
is working really very conveniently.
The new Fluke 125 adds a number of additional test capabilities to extend the working area of
the Fluke 120 Series and is based on the Fluke 124. On top, the 125 offers:
Bus Health mode
Industrial Buses (so called ‘Field Buses’) link the machinery
on the factory floor to each other, to sensors, actuators and
to a central computer and control system.
The Fluke 125 now offers extensive capabilities to test the
proper functioning of the network by analyzing the electrical
signals on the network (see screen copy).
Supported Fieldbus types are:
o AS-i bus,
o CAN-bus
o Interbus
o ControlNet
o MOD-Bus
o Foundation Fieldbus
o Profibus
o Ethernet (coax and TP, 10 Mb/s)
o RS-232 Example of Bus Health screen
o RS-485
o plus a capacity to define two ‘user defined’ network type.
Note: the Bus Health function is not a protocol analyzer but is a tool to investigate the electrical layer of the
communications system, giving ‘good’ or ‘no good’ indicators for individual parameters of the electrical system.

Power Measurements for single phase and balanced 3-phase systems:
¾ Watts
¾ VA
¾ VAR
¾ Power Factor (PF)
Harmonics mode, up to 33rd harmonic
(see screen copy). This mode supports a wide range of
fundamental mains frequencies including 16.⅔, 50, 60 and
400 Hz systems!
High resolution, low impedance measurements
50.00 Ω full scale, for use on motor windings and other low
resistance wiring.
Reading of Hz and Rotations Per Minute (RPM) for use
with electrical and combustion engines.
Input signal can be:
¾ 2 rotations per 1 pulse
¾ 1 rotation per 1 pulse
¾ 1 rotation per 2 pulses
Example of Harmonics mode screen
¾ 1 rotation per 4 pulses
Measurement of Vpwm for use on motor drive outputs,
as was implemented on the 190-series before
‘Save and recall’ using a user-defined name
for the stored data set. Each data set (up 9 pieces) contains screen + set-up + data. Names can be
created freely and altered at a later stage.
Fluke i400s Current Clamp included as a standard (Fluke 125 only). Furthermore, the i5s current
clamp is supported by the 125 firmware.
Note: The full level of functionality of the Fluke 124 is included in the 125.
Also all accessories found with the 124 are included. On top, an i400s current clamp is included with the Fluke
125.
FlukeView
With the introduction of the Fluke-125, a new edition of FlukeView ScopeMeter is introduced to support
this new model: FlukeView ScopeMeter SW90W V4.4. The functionality level in conjunction with the 120-
series is no different from V4.3 and V4.2, though.
Shipments of the Fluke-125/S and of the SCC120 will include the V4.4 per the release of the Fluke-125.
For customers who have release V4.x, a free update will be available through the Fluke public website,
lateron this month.
The Fluke 120 Series ScopeMeters just got better, giving more measurement
power into the hands of the demanding Service, Maintenance and Installation
Engineer.
