    Fluke CNX3000

    I believe that this meter does not do microamps to check flame sensor. Is it possible to use mA or mV to check flame sensors? I really like the fact it possible to have all those modules to check voltage, amps and other readings to be displayed on the multimeter.

    I'm afraid not. It only goes down to .01 milliamp.

    It would have to show .0001 milliamp to show the tenths of a microamp needed to measure flame rectification.

    That's one thing about Fluke, they always leave something out, can't seem to make a true all in one meter. Looks like a nice system otherwise.

    Could use a Fieldpiece AUA2 with the Fluke meter.

    Or you could use your AUA2 with a iDVM lte to wirelessly measure and log micro amps from a distance.

    Honestly I'd like to see the difference between the two systems.
    When I see the reading in the video jumping around I'm not sure if its a issue with meter accuracy, accessory head accuracy or a combination of both. Since both units record to a graph what does all that bouncing around look like?

    From what I've seen so far I'd have to say the Fluke system looks like a lot more bang for the buck.
