The Jandel HM21 

 
 

The Jandel HM21  is a portable meter designed for use with a four point probe to 
make resistivity measurements. For successful measurements the HM21 supplies a 
constant current and displays either the resultant voltage or the sheet resistance in 
ohms/square depending which function has been chosen. 
 
Unpacking 
 
When you unpack the HM21 you should find: 
 
1. A power lead incorporating a 9V AC adapter 
 
2. A set of four AA rechargeable batteries 
 
3. A 100 ohm test resistor 
 
4. A Jandel HM21 
 
Getting to know the HM21 
 
On the HM21 you will find the display: 

 

   (A typical reading on the HM21) 

 

 
and there are also 9 buttons… 

 
 
 
 
 

 

When pressed the ‘FWD’ button allows current flow in a ‘forward’ 

direction
