DESCRIPTION

The Apollo Time Base Rate Indicators (Model APLR) has the ability to scale 

for direct readout in terms of the units being measured. Whether a machine 

produces bottles, cloth, wire, or beverage mix, operation is enhanced when the 

rate readout is expressed directly in bottles/min., feet/min., gallons/hour, or 

whatever units are needed in plant operations. The APLR can provide this 

capability through its settable time base, programmable decimal points, and 

frequency doubling functions.

The APLR can also accommodate magnetic pickups, as well as logic 

(sourcing output)

 sensors and NPN open collector 

(sinking output)

 sensors.

This unit also has a self-test feature, which checks all the micro-processor 

and display driver circuitry after power-up 

(if enabled)

. This self-test also can 

be used to test the time base select DIP switches and decimal point select DIP 

switches, to make certain all switches are functioning properly.

Power and input connections are made via a removable terminal block, 

located at the rear of the unit. Each terminal can accept one #14 AWG wire. DIP 

switches at the side of the unit are used to program the input configuration.

The Apollo Rate Indicator has a sealed metal die-cast bezel which meets 

NEMA 4/IP65 specifications for wash-down and/or dust, when properly 

installed. Two mounting clips are provided for easy installation. The Time Base 

Rate Indicator uses a 6-digit, 0.56" (14.2 mm) high LED display, which is 

readable to 23 feet (7 M).
