Fluke · Multimeter · c.2007–present
The 289 is Fluke's industrial logging handheld, and the one to buy if you want a meter that records while you're somewhere else. Fluke's 287/289 manual is dated June 2007, and the launch literature called the 289 the next generation of high-performance logging meter. Its 50,000-count reading sits on a 1/4 VGA graphic screen, so the meter can draw what it logged. Fluke calls that TrendCapture. Leave the 289 on a circuit, come back, and zoom into the trend to find the dropout. It stores up to 15,000 readings, runs about 200 hours on six AA cells in logging mode and adds a low-impedance voltage function. It's rated CAT III 1000 V and CAT IV 600 V. To move logs onto a PC you need Fluke's IR cable and FlukeView Forms, so check the listing for them.
Options and accessories
Check the listing photos and the rear panel against this list, and ask the seller about anything you can’t see. A missing option or probe should come off the price.
The IR cable and FlukeView Forms software were sold separately, so a used 289 may come without them, and you can't download logs without them. As on any Fluke handheld, a dead current range usually means a blown fuse, and Fluke specifies its own 440 mA and 11 A parts.
New to used bench gear? How to check used test equipment covers self-tests, fuses, the voltage selector and shipping, and what “calibrated” means in a listing.
Buying guide
We'd buy the 289 with leads and clips from a US test-gear dealer at $365 delivered, the cheapest here and under the $410–600 band. There are at least 97 for sale, and the middle of the band is mostly China resellers at $474–555 delivered, one of them using another seller's photo, so ask any of them for a photo of the actual meter with its serial. Ask for the screen lit with no missing lines and for a short log drawn as a TrendCapture graph. You need Fluke's IR cable and FlukeView Forms to download logs, and only the $1,000 kit here titles them, about twice the $486 median, so budget for the cable separately on the others.
