GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Red Lion’s Graphical Panel Meters, PM-50, is a platform of
meters designed to increase operator productivity and expose
critical plant floor data for use in project scheduling and process
improvements. Local operators can easily relate to the more
intuitive graphical display. Additional displays could be added to
provide even more data. The meters feature on-board Wi-Fi,
RS-485/Modbus and optional Ethernet or RS-232.
PM-50 features a 4.3" or 3.5" Color Graphical Touchscreen.
With an appearance like many smart devices, the display includes
a status bar and menu selections for easy operation. Recognizing
a swipe gesture allows multiple screens to be accessed.
Touchscreen push buttons can be displayed on the screen or
hidden during operation. The meters mount in standard industrial
hole sizes, 1/8 DIN and 1/16 DIN respectively.
On power-up, a Programming Wizard will assist you to get
started. You may also select a Programming App, Web Server, or
the traditional button/menu style for your programming needs.
For OEM customers a microSD Card allows for quick programming
and installation, saving time and money.
The Digital model accepts various pulse sensors. Onboard
outputs include two Solid State Outputs that can take up to 30 V
source voltage with software configurable source or sink options.
User inputs are also available to provide external interface and
control when required.
The PM-50 platform includes modular construction to add
additional capabilities. External modules can easily be installed in
the field to add a variety of output and communication options.
As safety advances through the Automation Industry, DC is the
more common choice for power. However, there are still many
requirements for AC power and they can be accommodated with
our AC to DC Power Module.
