Key Features & Benefits
Unrivaled Measurement Versatility:
Monitor a vast array of electrical parameters: AC/DC Voltage, Current (Amps), Frequency (Hz), Power (kW, kVAR, kVA), Power Factor, Energy (kWh), Harmonics.
Process parameters: Temperature (via RTD/Thermocouple), Pressure, Flow, Level, RPM, and more (with appropriate transducers/inputs).
Offers a complete picture of your system's health and performance.
Crystal-Clear Displays:
Digital Displays (LED/LCD): Bright, high-contrast, multi-digit readouts ensure excellent visibility even in challenging lighting conditions. Backlit options for enhanced readability.
Analog Displays (Moving Coil): Classic, intuitive needle indicators for quick trend assessment and visual confirmation.
Large character heights and configurable units for immediate data recognition, reducing operator error.
Intelligent Control & Connectivity:
Programmable Relay Outputs: Set alarms for over/under limits, trigger external devices, or initiate corrective actions based on measured values.
Analog Outputs (4-20mA, 0-10V): Seamlessly integrate measured data into PLCs, DCS systems, or other control loops for advanced automation.
Digital Communication (Modbus RTU, Ethernet/IP, Profibus): Remotely access data, configure settings, and integrate with SCADA systems or building management systems for centralized monitoring and control.
Robust & Reliable Design:
Built to withstand demanding industrial environments with NEMA 4X / IP65 front panel protection (on select models), offering resistance against dust, splash, and corrosion.
High-quality components ensure long-term stability and minimal maintenance.
Designed for continuous operation in a wide range of operating temperatures.
