PAXR
The PAXR (PAX Rate Panel Meter) offers many features and performance capabilities to suit a wide range of industrial applications. The optional Plug-in Setpoint Alarm Cards allow the opportunity to configure the meter for alarms if that is a requirement. The meters employ a bright 14mm LED display. The unit is available with a red sunlight readable or standard green LED display. The intensity of the display can be adjusted from dark room applications up to sunlight readable, making it ideal for viewing in bright light applications. The PAXR meter accepts digital inputs from a variety of sources including outputs from CMOS or TTL circuits and all standard RLC sensors. The maximum input signal is 34 KHz. The meter provides three different display indications. These include a Rate Display, Max Display, and Min Display. Annunciators indicate which display is being shown. The PAXR provides a MAX and MIN reading memory with programmable capture time. The capture time is used to prevent detection of false max or min readings which may occur during start-up or unusual process events. The front panel keys and three user inputs are programmable to perform various meter functions. One of the functions includes exchanging parameter lists, allowing double the number of programmable setpoint. The meter can have up to four setpoint outputs, determined by the Plug-in cards. The Plug-in cards provide dual FORM-C relays (5 A), quad FORM-A relays (3 A) or either quad sinking or quad sourcing open collector logic outputs. The outputs are assigned to the rate display value. The outputs can also be independently configured to suit a variety of control and alarm requirements. Once the meter has been initially configured, the parameter list may be locked out from further modification entirely, or only the setpoint can be made accessible. This lockout is possible through a security code or user input. 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.
