Refer to can be made accessible. pages 4 through 6 for the details on the specific models. The optional plug-in The meters have been specifically designed for harsh industrial environments. output cards allow the opportunity to configure the meter for present With NEMA 4X/IP65 sealed bezel and extensive testing of noise effects to CE applications, while providing easy upgrades for future needs. requirements, the meter provides a tough yet reliable application solution. The meters employ a bright 0.56 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. SAFETY SUMMARY The meters provide a MAX and MIN reading memory with programmable All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in this capture time. The capture time is used to prevent detection of false max or min literature or on equipment must be observed to ensure personal safety and to readings which may occur during start-up or unusual process events. prevent damage to either the instrument or equipment connected to it.

The Plug-in cards provide dual FORM-C relays (5A), quad FORM-A (3A), or either quad sinking or quad sourcing open collector logic 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, CAUTION: Risk of Danger CAUTION: Risk of electric shock. Read complete instructions prior to the meters have a feature that allows a remote computer to directly control the installation and operation of the unit. 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.
