DP20 Economical Multisignal Meter
Instruction Manual
1. Economical multisignal meter DP20
⅛ DIN Economical Multisignal panel meter for Process, Temperature and Electrical measurements
Economical multisignal digital panel meter in ⅛ DIN size for panel
mount, and a wide range of applications. Accepts AC and DC voltage
signals from mV up to 600 V and currents up to 5 A (AC measures
in True RMS), process signals (mA and Vdc) with excitation voltage
included, thermocouples K, J, E, N, L, R, S, B, T and C, resistive
temperature probes (Pt100, Pt500, Pt1000, Ni100, Ni200, Ni1000,
PTC and NTC), resistances, potentiometers and frequency. Scalable
reading with 4 digits up to 9999 / -1999 with configurable decimal
point. Two independent alarms, configurable as maximum or
minimum, with hysteresis and setpoint.
Optional 1 or 2 relay outputs, 4/20 mA isolated analog output, and
Modbus RTU isolated serial communications.
Front protection IP65. Connections with plug-in screw terminals.

Instrument designed for industrial use, highly flexible, allows for
integration in multiple applications, reduced cost, excellent quality
and optional customization available.
• ‘Fast access’ menu at front key UP (
5
) configurable for fast access
to alarm setpoints (see section 1.19).
• ‘Eco’ mode reduces power consumption (see section 1.22).
• Simplified scaling configuration (see section 1.20).
• Function ‘external control’ to activate with a contact a predefined
function (second scaling, decimal point, reading “hold”, “tare,“
memory of maximum or minimum) (see section 1.23).
• 5 configurable brightness levels (see section 1.28.7).
