Capacitance Meter for Component Testing
The MASTECH MS6013A is a portable digital capacitance meter designed for technicians and hobbyists who need to verify capacitor values. It measures from 200pF up to 20mF across multiple ranges. The instrument runs on a single 9V battery and weighs approximately 600g.
Measurement Range and Accuracy
The single specification that decides suitability is the measurement span of 200pF to 20mF with stated accuracies of ±0.5% on most ranges, ±1.0% at 2000F and ±2.0% at 20mF. The 1999-count display provides the resolution needed to read these values. Buyers who need to measure inductance, ESR or resistance cannot use this meter.
Hand-Held Operation and Power
Normal use involves holding the unit and pressing the external zero button before each measurement to remove residual offset. The meter draws power from one 6F22 9V cell, so there is no mains lead or fan to create noise. The compact case at 91mm by 189mm by 31.5mm stays cool during typical bench sessions.

Questions about this item
How does the 1999-count display affect the resolution of capacitance readings?
The 1999-count display provides 3½-digit resolution, so each range shows values up to 1999 with the decimal point positioned for that range, giving finer steps on lower ranges such as 200 pF or 2 nF.
What measurement standard does the meter use and what are the accuracy limits on each range?
The meter measures capacitance across seven ranges from 200 pF to 20 mF; accuracy is ±0.5% on ranges up to 200 F, ±1.0% on the 2000 F range and ±2.0% on the 20 mF range.
What are the physical dimensions and weight for bench or field use?
The unit measures 91 mm wide, 189 mm long and 31.5 mm thick, weighing approximately 600 g, making it portable for bench or field work.
