The GSDA-DP-S is a panel mounted, multi-purpose signal conditioner that allows the operator easy
access to make adjustments to system operations. The GSDA-DP-S may be used in OEM equipment
designs, plant operation or laboratory applications. Most other signal conditioners are DIN rail
mounted inside a panel and designed to be set up once - many applications require frequent
adjustments to meet application needs. The unique front-panel design of the GSDA-DP-S addresses
this by making output adjustment easily accessible via convenient up and down pushbuttons and a
large, easy to read LED display.
