Summary[edit]

Description
Deutsch: PIFCO Universal-Prüfer ("universal tester"), hergestellt in der Fabrik elektrischer Meßinstrumente Josef Neuberger in München. Ein Multimeter in Form einer Taschenuhr aus den 1930er Jahren, damals erhältlich für 9 Reichsmark. Am oberen Ende wurde ein Prüfkabel eingesteckt. Spätere Versionen haben ein Gehäuse aus Bakelit, um die Stromschlaggefahr beim Benutzen zu verringern. Für die Durchgangsprüfung wird im Gehäuse eine Batterie verbaut. Mit dem Multimeter kann Spannung in zwei Bereichen, Strom, Durchgang und der Heizfaden einer Elektronenröhre gemessen bzw. geprüft werden. Der Durchmesser des Multimeters beträgt ca. 6,5 cm, die Tiefe ca. 5 cm.

A multimeter in the shape of a pocket watch from the 1930s, available at that time for 9 Reichsmark. A test lead was plugged into the top end. Later versions have a Bakelite case to reduce the risk of electric shock when being handled. A battery is installed in the housing for the continuity test. The multimeter can measure voltage in two ranges, current, test continuity and the heating filament of a vacuum tube. The diameter of the meter is ca. 6.5 cm, the depth is ca. 5 cm.
