DM400 Series Loop Powered Indicators

 

INTRODUCTION
These loop powered 3 1/2 digit indicators are designed to be connected in series with a 4 to 20 ma current loop and to display, in engineering units, the process variable represented by the current flowing.

FIELD MOUNT

DM400 A loop powered field indicator requiring only 1 volt from the loop, supplied in a NEMA 6 housing.  It can be mounted directly to a transmitter, wall or duct, or in a conduit line via the 1/2" NPT threads.  The housing has sufficient room to mount a hockey puck style transmitter.  Coarse and fine potentiometers are provided for both SPAN and ZERO adjustment.
DM401 A lower cost version requiring 3 volts from the loop.
DM400X I.S. approved for use in hazardous area applications.

PANEL MOUNT

DM420 A panel mounted loop powered indicator which, when assembled with the sealing gasket supplied, provides NEMA 4 protection.  Scaling is set by a combination of jumpers and SPAN and ZERO potentiometers.  This device requires only 1 volt from the loop.
DM421 A lower cost version requiring 3 volts from the loop.
DM420X I.S. approved for use in hazardous area applications.

INTRINSIC SAFETY APPROVALS

The IS approval is to EECS (BASEEFA) EEx ia IIC T5 Certificate No. Ex 90C2062 Systems certificate No. Ex 83432.
