RESISTANCE METER
RM3544, RM3548
Easy to use with high-accuracy
Resistance Meters for Production Lines and MRO
The Resistance Meters RM3544/RM3548 can measure the winding resistance of devices such as motors
and transformers, the contact resistance of power contacts (relays and switches), and the DC resistance
of fuses, resistors, and substrates such as conductive rubber and sheets. It does so quickly and at a high
level of accuracy using four-terminal measurement.
The RM3544 is well suited to use for adjustment and testing on production lines as well as acceptance
inspections, while the RM3548 comprises a portable solution for measuring resistance values ranging
in magnitude from microohms to megohms, making it ideal for use in production, maintenance, repair
and operation of large equipment.

1μΩ max. resolution, 0.02% basic accuracy
Max. measurable current of 300mA
As inverter-equipped power supply equipment uses increasingly
high currents and frequencies, increasingly low-resistance and
low-loss inductors are being used in their circuitry, prompting
a need for the ability to measure lower resistance levels with a
high level of stability. With a resolution of 1 μΩ, the RM3544/
RM3544-01 satisfies these needs.
Electronic components make extensive use of high-resistance
substrates such as conductive sheets and rubber, and the RM3544/
RM3544-01 delivers the ability to measure up to 3.5 MΩ.
Moreover, the instrument’s maximum accuracy of 0.02% allows
it to be used in testing current detectors with a precision of 0.1%.
No warmup period or zero adjustment
The RM3544/RM3544-01 has no warmup time, meaning
it’s ready to use for measurement as soon as you turn it on.
Accuracy is guaranteed immediately after the instrument is
powered up (assuming temperature and humidity conditions
that satisfy the accuracy guarantee conditions).
Footprint of just 215 × 166 mm
Compared to previous the previous model (HIOKI 3540), the
RM3544/RM3544-01 takes up approximately 25% less installation space. The smaller footprint creates work space in front
of the instrument, and its compact size allows it to be easily
and unobtrusively embedded in other equipment.
High-durability probes
HIOKI offers a line of probes designed to accommodate the
full range of measurement targets. Flex resistance has been
dramatically improved (based on HIOKI comparisons).

Advanced functionality that’s as easy to use as it is easy to understand
Measurement jacks with guard jack
By connecting a probe to the guard jack, you can minimize the
effects of external noise on measurements.
Simple control over basic settings
Range and measurement speed can be controlled directly.
Loud, user-selectable judgment tones
High-volume judgment tones of at least 85 dB inform the
operator of test results, ensuring that they remain audible
even in the vicinity of noisy machinery. The ability to
choose from various tones ensures operators won’t confuse
judgment results on lines where multiple RM3544 units are
in use.
LED COMPARATOR ATTACHMENT (Option)
The LED Comparator Attachment indicates judgment results
with green and red LEDs, eliminating the need to look at the
instrument’s screen and increasing work efficiency. Since the
lamps do not light up when the measurement leads are open, the
attachment can also be used to verify the connection status.

detection (RM3544/RM3544 -01)
Measuring in sync with the power line frequency is important for
achieving accurate measurements. To avoid measurement problems due to incorrect settings, the power line frequency is automatically sensed and selected (50 or 60 Hz).
The universal AC input (90 to 264 V) is practically unaffected by
voltage fluctuations, so stable measurements are possible even in
poor power environments.

in automobiles and fuselage welds and caulking in aircraft using a measurement current of 300 mA (300 mΩ
range).

Portable, easy to use, and easy to understand
Design is ideal for maintenance and testing/
measurement of large products
The included strap can be looped around the neck to support the instrument, leaving the operator’s hands free to hold probes for measurement. The meter uses eight AA alkaline batteries, which provide
enough power for approximately 10 hours of testing under normal
operating conditions. (Operating times vary with measurement conditions.)
Auto-hold and auto-memory functionality
The RM3548 features auto-hold and auto-memory functionality to
automatically hold and record data simply by placing the probes in
contact with the desired measurement location. This functionality
allows measured values to be recorded automatically as soon as
they stabilize without the need for the user to operate any switches.
LED COMPARATOR ATTACHMENT
By installing the LED COMPARATOR ATTACHMENT close to a
probe, you can capture judgment
results without moving your eyes
away from the measurement location and probe.
No zero adjustment
Accuracy is defined without any need to perform zero-adjustment.
Measurement can be performed as soon as the instrument is turned on.
Dramatically improved overvoltage resistance
Green light
IN state
Red light
HI/LO state
Protection is provided against overvoltage input of up to 70 V, preventing damage caused by connecting the instrument to an electrical
charge or by the effects of the counter-EMF from inductance.
Offset Voltage Compensation(OVC)
Thermal EMF occurs at the contact point of different metals.
This voltage affects measurements, and if large enough, can cause
measurement errors. The offset voltage compensation function
minimizes the effect of thermal EMF to maintain measurement
accuracy. Particularly when measuring low resistances where the
detection voltage is small, and during low-power resistance measurements, OVC is essential to maintain accuracy.
Length conversion function
By setting a resistance value per meter, it is possible to convert
resistance values into lengths. This capability is useful when managing cable inventory or estimating PCB pattern lengths.
Circuit protection detection state
(Alerts the operator to overvoltage
input with a screen display and an
audible warning.)
Acquire measured values recorded in the
instrument’s memory over a USB connection
By connecting the RM3548 to a computer with a USB cable*, you
can download measured values stored in the instrument’s memory.
*Since the RM3548 provides a mass storage class (read-only) USB
interface, there is no need to install special driver software on the
computer
Temperature conversion function and interval measurement:
Useful in temperature-rise testing
Temperature increase (Δt) is obtained and displayed by converting resistance measurements and ambient temperature.
The maximum temperature increase needs to be determined when current is applied especially for verifying motor windings or transformers.The interval measurement function can be used to take measurements at a user-specified interval
from the start of measurement. Since measured values can be recorded in the instrument’s memory, the maximum temperature can be easily estimated.
*The temperature conversion function cannot be used simultaneously with the temperature correction function and length conversion function.
➀ When a motor or coil has thermally stabilized at room temperature, measure
the resistance (r0) and ambient temperature (t0) before applying current.
➁ Excite the coil, and when the temperature increase appears to saturate,
remove the excitation.
➂ After removing excitation, determine the temperature (∆t1 to ∆tn) from
the resistance (rt) measured at each specific time (t), and the ambient
temperature.
➃ Project the curve through the collected temperature data (∆t1 to ∆tn) to
estimate the maximum temperature increase (∆t).

Caution when considering the use of probes without guard terminals
Proper operation of the RM3544 is not guaranteed when using test leads (test
probes) that lack guard terminals, for example test leads used with models such as
the Resistance HiTester 3541 or mΩ HiTester 3540. Please use the test leads indicated in the RM3544 accessory and option documentation.
