Key Features
🔬 Ultra-Wide Measuring Range (0.1pF – 20,000µF)
Covers 9 measurement ranges, from tiny ceramic capacitors to large electrolytic can capacitors. Whether you're repairing a smartphone or troubleshooting a power supply, this meter handles it all. No more guessing or using multiple devices!
🎯 High Accuracy with ±0.5% Basic Precision
Delivers reliable readings with accuracy up to ±0.5% (±20 digits) on most ranges. Trust the numbers you see when sorting, matching, or verifying capacitor values for sensitive circuits.
🔄 One-Touch Zero Adjustment Knob
Front-panel zeroing knob lets you quickly null out test lead capacitance before measuring small values. This ensures you get the true capacitance of the component, not the wires—critical for pF-level measurements.
💡 Backlit LCD Display with Data Hold
Large 3½-digit (1999 count) LCD screen with built-in backlight works in dim workshops or crowded workbenches. Press the HOLD button to freeze readings on the display—perfect for recording values when test points are awkward to reach.
⚡ Low Battery Indicator & Auto Polarity
The meter shows a clear "⊞" warning on the upper-left of the screen when the 9V battery runs low, so you're never caught off guard. Automatic zeroing and polarity selection simplify operation—just connect and read.
🔌 Direct Plug-In for Small Capacitors
For better accuracy on tiny capacitors, you can plug them directly into the CX+ / CX– input jacks instead of using test leads. This eliminates lead capacitance interference—a thoughtful design for precision work.

Why Choose This Capacitance Meter?
✅ Solves Real-World Problems
🔧 For Repair Technicians – Quickly identify open, shorted, or leaky capacitors on circuit boards. When a meter shows "beyond range" or a value far above normal, you know the capacitor is faulty without needing expensive ESR gear.
🔍 For Hobbyists & Makers – Match capacitors for crossover networks, timing circuits, or power supplies. The 0.1pF resolution lets you sort tiny ceramic caps with confidence—something basic multimeters simply can't do.
⚙️ For Production & QC – Use the Data Hold function to freeze readings during batch testing. The fast 2–3 readings per second keeps your workflow moving.
🏭 For Cable & PCB Testing – Measure parasitic capacitance of cables, switches, or printed circuit traces to verify signal integrity and identify shorts or opens.
✅ Designed for Accuracy and Ease of Use
The front-panel zero adjustment knob is a standout feature. Unlike cheaper meters that force you to mentally subtract lead capacitance, this meter lets you physically null it out. Just short the leads, turn the knob to zero, and you're ready for precise small-capacitance measurements.
The automatic polarity selection means you don't have to worry about which lead goes where—just connect and read. For electrolytic capacitors, the manual recommends observing polarity, but the meter itself handles the display logic.
