PCE-UT 81B Handheld Oscilloscope
Bandwidth 8 MHz / built-in multimeter / frequency counter /
USB port / internal storage / capacity meter

The PCE-UT 81B handheld oscilloscope is a measuring device with multiple functions and can be used in many different fields. The PCE-UT 81 oscilloscope together with the multimeter is the ideal tool for on the spot repairs as well as for workshops. Its large and high resolution LCD monochrome display with 160 x 160 pixels is easy to read thanks to the backlight function. The "Auto-Set" key allows to work very quickly and easily. Apart from its multiple functions, the PCE-UT 81 oscilloscope has an internal storage that allows you to recover on the display up to 10 different signals for further analysis. The built-in multimeter is equipped with standard functions such as: voltage, current and resistance measurements, continuity and diode test functions. The multimeter also has additional functions such as frequency and capacitance measurements. In the voltage, current or frequency modes the measuring value can be selected to be displayed alone or together with the wave forms. Through the optically isolated USB port, measuring values and signals can be transferred from the oscilloscope to the computer. With the help of a PC, data can be registered during a long period. Here you can see other oscilloscopes with multiple functions (oscilloscope, multimeter, logical analyser, …). At this link you will find an overview of all the oscilloscopes available at PCE Instruments.
