Red Lion PAXP0010 PAX DC Powered Dual Range Process Input Meter, 20 mA/10 VDC, 3.8 in L x 4.1 in W x 1.95 in H, 0.01%

The PAX® analog panel meters offer many features and performance capabilities to suit a wide range of industrial applications. Available in five different models to handle various analog inputs, including DC voltage/current, AC voltage/current, process, temperature, and strain gage Inputs. Refer to pages 4 through 6 for the details on the specific models. The option cards allow the opportunity to configure the meter for present applications, while providing easy upgrades for future needs. The meters employ a bright 0.56 in LED display. The unit is available with a red sunlight readable or a standard green LED. The intensity of display can be adjusted from dark room applications up to sunlight readable, making it ideal for viewing in bright light applications. The meters provide a maximum and minimum reading memory with programmable capture time. The capture time is used to prevent detection of false maximum or minimum readings which may occur during start-up or unusual process events. The signal totalizer (integrator) can be used to compute a time-input product. This can be used to provide a readout of totalized flow, calculate service intervals of motors or pumps, etc. The totalizer can also accumulate batch weighing operations. Optional digital output cards provide the meter with up to four setpoint outputs. The cards are available as dual relay quad relay quad sinking transistor, quad sourcing transistor/SSR drive, or dual TRIAC/dual SSR drive outputs. The setpoint alarms can be configured to suit a variety of control and alarm requirements. Communication and bus capabilities are also available as option cards. These include RS232, RS485, Modbus, DeviceNet, and Profibus-DP. Readout values and setpoint alarm values can be controlled through the bus. Additionally, the meters have a feature that allows a remote computer to directly control the outputs of the meter. With an RS232 or RS485 card installed, it is possible to configure the meter using a Windows® based program. The configuration data can be saved to a file for later recall. A linear DC output signal is available as an optional card. The card provides either 20 mA or 10 V signals. The output can be scaled independent of the input range and can track either the input, totalizer, maximum or minimum readings. Once the meters have been initially configured, the parameter list may be locked out from further modification in its entirety or only the setpoint values can be made accessible. The meters have been specifically designed for harsh industrial environments. With NEMA 4X/IP65 sealed bezel and extensive testing of noise effects to CE requirements, the meter provides a tough yet reliable application solution.
