Colour changing meter

Like all iSeries meters, the Big Display can be programmed to change colours between red, amber and green at any setpoint or alarm point.

For example, the instrument can be programmed to display the process value in green during warm-up, switching to amber to signal the normal operating range, and in red to signal an alarm condition.

The Big Display can be mounted flush in a panel or surface mounted with the included brackets. The enclosure provides NEMA 4/IP65 protection.

The display can handle a wide variety of signal inputs directly from transducers or process transmitters as well as display data transmitted from other Newport devices via serial communications or ethernet.

The 'universal temperature + process Big Display' is designed for thermocouples, RTDs and process (DC) voltage or current. It handles 10 thermocouple types: K, J, T, E, R, S, B, C, N and J DIN. It works with a wide selection of RTDs, both Pt 0.00385 and 0.00392 curves for 100, 500 and 1000 ohm and it measures with 2, 3 or 4 wire connections for the highest accuracy.

This model also measures process voltage: 0-100 mV, 0-1, 0-10 V ranges and process current, 0-20 mA with built-in excitation of 10 VDC and 24 VDC standard.

The display handles a wide variety of DC voltages and current outputs from all common load cells, pressure transducers, and most strain gauge type of transducer.

The meter measures input ranges of 0-100 mV, -100 to 1 V, 0-10 V, 0-20 mA with built-in excitation of 5 VDC and 10 VDC standard.

This model also features 10 point linearisation enabling accurate measurements from a wide assortment of unique and nonlinear transducers.
