Overview

The UNI-T UT8802E Value-Series Bench Digital Multimeter is a 4½-digit manual-range meter with a 19,999-count display, 0.1% basic DC voltage accuracy, and the full AC/DC voltage, AC/DC current, resistance, capacitance, diode, continuity, frequency, and duty-cycle function set found across the UT8800E series. It targets the workbench where measurements are routine and the budget matters — electronics troubleshooting, prototype validation, and component test in a single benchtop instrument.

Coverage extends to triode and thyristor characteristic measurement via the optional UT-S03A test fixture, supporting screening of bipolar transistors and SCRs for on-voltage, conduction direction, and current gain. A USB-Device interface connects to a host PC running the included software for historical-data viewing and trend monitoring during long-duration tests.

Key Features

UNI-T UT8802E Details

4½-Digit Display and 0.1% Accuracy

The UT8802E delivers a 4½-digit 19,999-count display with 0.1% basic DC voltage accuracy. DC voltage resolution is 10μV and DC current resolution is 10nA — covering the precision needed for component validation, prototype bring-up, and general bench measurement. Resistance resolution is 0.01Ω.

Measurement Function Coverage

Measurement coverage includes AC/DC voltage, AC/DC current, resistance, capacitance, diode, continuity, frequency, duty cycle, triode/thyristor (with UT-S03A fixture). Capacitance measurement extends to 100 mF. Frequency counter range is 200 Hz – 10 MHz.

Diode, Triode, and Thyristor Test

Diode test measures forward voltage and verifies polarity. Combined with the optional UT-S03A test fixture, the UT8802E extends to triode and thyristor characteristic measurement — useful for screening bipolar transistors and SCRs for conduction direction, on-voltage, and current-gain (magnification) on incoming parts.

Reference Value (REL) and Max/Min Statistics

The Reference Value (REL) function captures a baseline reading and displays subsequent measurements as deviations from that baseline — useful for isolating small changes against a known starting value. Maximum and minimum value statistics capture extreme readings across a batch or measurement sequence.

Connectivity and Remote Control

USB-Device connection to a host PC enables real-time historical-data viewing, trend-chart display, and configuration backup through the included software. For workbench logging and remote monitoring of long-running tests where a separate data logger would be overkill, USB-Device provides the path.
