The OWON HDS100 Series combines a 1-channel digital oscilloscope and 4.5-digit multimeter in a compact handheld instrument. It enables technicians to inspect AC voltage waveforms and perform standard electrical measurements without carrying separate test devices.
Designed for electrical troubleshooting, equipment maintenance and field service, the HDS100 Series combines CAT III 1000V safety compliance, intelligent input detection and a maximum waveform voltage limit of 1000V DC+AC peak. Physical controls, rechargeable 18650 battery power and a 2.8-inch IPS display support practical measurement work in workshops, electrical installations and mobile service environments.
Key Features
-
Oscilloscope and multimeter integration: Combine waveform observation and electrical measurements in one portable instrument.
-
1MHz AC voltage waveform bandwidth: Inspect mains-frequency signals, inverter outputs, control voltages and other lower-frequency electrical waveforms.
-
Up to 5MSa/s sampling: Acquire waveform data for visual analysis, automatic measurements and transient investigation.
-
Automatic waveform measurements: Display Vmax, Vmin, Vp-p, Vavg, Vrms and frequency without manual cursor calculations.
-
CAT III 1000V safety compliance: Support measurement work in electrical distribution and industrial maintenance environments within the specified input limits.
-
Direct high-voltage waveform measurement: Observe voltage waveforms up to the published 1000V DC+AC peak limit.
-
Intelligent input detection: Adapt the measurement selection according to the connected input position, helping prevent incorrect operation and instrument damage.
-
Comprehensive multimeter functions: Measure AC/DC voltage, AC/DC current, resistance, capacitance, frequency, duty cycle, diodes and continuity.
-
Flexible triggering: Use Auto, Normal or Single trigger modes with rising- or falling-edge selection.
-
2.8-inch IPS display: Read waveforms and measurement values clearly across a wide viewing angle.
-
Dual display themes: Maintain clear visibility in bright outdoor conditions, workshops and low-light environments.
-
Full-button operation: Access measurement and oscilloscope controls through physical keys suited to regular field use.
-
18650 lithium-ion battery power: Perform maintenance and inspection work away from a fixed test bench.
Model Differences & Selection
-
HDS120 — 20,000 counts: A practical choice for routine maintenance, electrical troubleshooting, installation checks and general-purpose measurements where standard display resolution meets the task requirements.
-
HDS160 — 60,000 counts: Provides three times the multimeter display count and higher specified DC measurement accuracy, making it better suited to users who need finer numerical resolution and more detailed comparison of small measurement changes.
Choose the HDS120 for everyday field service and general electrical diagnostics. Choose the HDS160 when multimeter resolution and DC measurement accuracy are more important. Both models share the same 1MHz waveform-analysis platform, automatic oscilloscope measurements, CAT III 1000V rating, intelligent input detection and portable display design.
Applications
- Industrial electrical maintenance
- Power distribution and installation diagnostics
- Inverter and control-system waveform inspection
- Electrical equipment troubleshooting and repair
- Field-service voltage and current measurements
