Simpson 260® Series 6MP

Analog - VOM

Volt-Ohm-Milliammeter

The front on the Simpson 260-6P changes from the Series 5, by the addition of a "transit" position

at the 500 MA position on the function switch. The 50 Micro Amp jack is also marked as 250 MV.

 The Simpson 260-6MP has the Taut Band Suspension dial with the three Amp-Clamp scales.

The 260 Series 6 is the first to have the three Amp-Clamp scales.

Controls include: Ohms zero adjustment, AC - DC Voltage selector switch,

and a 12 position Function / Range selector switch. Eight recessed probe jacks.

The overload reset button is on the left side of the Simpson logo.

The off or "transit" position is at the 500 MA location.

The back of the case has an "adapter lock" for use with "Add-A-Tester" accessories.

The rear case now has rubber feet instead of raised bumps at the four corners.

More inside views linked below.

This is the first model to use the NEDA 13 F "D" cell and NEDA 1604A (9 Volt) batteries combination.

The separate battery / fuse cover allows access to the 3 amp fuse and the batteries. 

Case Size: 5¼ " x 7 " x 3⅛ "  -  Weight: 3 Pounds
