New 1/8 DIN dual-input flow rate/totalisers

Precision Digital has just announced the ProVu® PD6262 and PD6363 Dual-Input Flow Rate / Totalizers. The new 1/8 DIN panel meters feature independent programming of inputs, including separate selection of input type and scaling. The PD6262 panel meter supports dual analog inputs of 0-20 mA, 4-20 mA, 0-5 V, 1-5 V, or ±10 V. The PD6363 supports dual pulse inputs, including square wave, open collector, NPN, PNP, TTL, or switch contact signals. Both meters provide integrated math functions for rate or total flow calculations: addition, difference, summation, multiplication, division, min/max, weighted average, ratio, concentration, and more.

The PD6262 and PD6363 feature rugged NEMA 4X front panels. The optional SunBright display can be read even in direct sunlight, smoke, fog, dust, or at a distance. The meters are designed for quick and easy display of local or remote information in a variety of flow applications, such as municipal water measurement, wastewater treatment, or chemical mixing. For hazardous areas, such as oil and gas production, the meters are also available as explosion-proof, IP68, NEMA 4X ProtEX®-MAX models.

"The PD6262 and PD6363 represent a new generation of 1/8 DIN dual-input meters," said Jeffrey Peters, President, Precision Digital Corporation. "They include modern panel meter features, such as alternating dual-line displays, readable screens even in sunlight, and convenient 24 VDC transmitter power supplies. They're also easily programmed. Each input channel can display rate, total, grand total, units, math functions, whatever is needed for the application."

The ProVu flow rate / totalizers feature bright red LED displays. The upper display is 0.60 inches (15 mm) high and shows a full six digits. With the total overflow feature, up to nine digits of total flow can be displayed. The lower display is 0.46 inches (12 mm). The displays can show a combination of flow rate, total, grand total, a custom tag, and math channels. The meters are easy to read from a distance and under various lighting conditions, and the ProtEX-MAX is also designed to be seen from wide viewing angles.

The PD6262 and PD6363 are UL and CUL Listed and are CE Certified for high noise and RF immunity. The explosion-proof models, ProtEX-MAX PD8-6262 and PD8-6363, provide IP68, NEMA 4X enclosures, SafeTouch® Through-Glass button programming, and Modbus® RS-485 serial communications standard.
