GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The PAXLA is a versatile meter available as a DC volt, current, or process 

meter with scaling and dual Form C relay outputs. The meter is programmed 
through the front panel buttons and the use of jumpers. The RST Key will also 
function as a front panel display reset.

Once the front panel programming is complete, the buttons can be disabled 

by a user input setting. The meter has been specifically designed for harsh 
industrial environments. With a NEMA 4X/IP65 sealed bezel and extensive 
testing to meet CE requirements, the meter provides a tough yet reliable 
application solution.

SAFETY SUMMARY

All safety regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in this and 

corresponding literature, or on equipment, must be observed to ensure personal 
safety and to prevent damage to either the instrument or equipment connected to 
it. If equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the 
protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
