Measuring devices for the workshop, workshop and home
Measuring physical values is one of the most frequently performed activities when doing DIY, creating electronic projects or working with electrical devices. To make the measurements accurate and reliable, appropriate tools are needed - sensors, meters and other measuring instruments.
Electric meters and multimeters
In the measuring devices category you will find a large selection of analog and digital meters for electrical quantities. Tools available include measuring DC and AC voltage, current, resistance and electrical capacity, as well as oscilloscopes, function generators and electricity consumption meters. In this section you will also find battery charge level meters and socket and network cable testers. We also offer a wide selection of electrical multimeters that allow you to measure many parameters with one device. Universal multimeters are made of light and at the same time durable plastic. It is characterized by versatile use (both inside and outside buildings), high accuracy and repeatability of measurements.
Other measuring devices
Our assortment includes a wide range of devices for measuring weather parameters: air purity sensors (detecting dust, smoke or the presence of substances such as carbon monoxide, alcohol, gasoline, ammonia or formaldehyde), thermometers, barometers, hygrometers and anemometers.
We offer devices for the analysis of radio waves, thermal cameras, sonometers, tachometers and metal detectors, as well as a wide selection of scales, measuring cups and calipers (including spirit levels and rangefinders). Our assortment also includes lux meters, i.e. devices designed to measure light intensity. On the Botland website you will also find a wide selection of meter probes, cables, connectors and adapters used in measuring devices.
What should you pay attention to when choosing measuring devices?
Regardless of the type of measuring device and the physical quantity it measures, all tools of this type have a specific degree of accuracy and a specific measurement range.
Matching them to the planned use is very important for subsequent comfort of use - for example, a jewelry scale will be completely useless in the kitchen, while a high-voltage cable meter will not work for precise electronic projects.
Measuring tools - what else is worth knowing before choosing?
Moreover, many measuring devices are available in both analog and digital versions, and both variants have their advantages and disadvantages. Analog meters are usually more accurate (although there is a higher probability of incorrect data reading) and do not require additional power supply.
However, digital devices are often lighter and easier to transport, and the read value leaves no doubt. However, they need power, and the result is always more or less rounded.
