2864215 Industrial Controls

Panel meters are a versatile type of instrument used to display an electrical value such as voltage, current, frequency, or power. They are usually mounted in a panel or junction box, giving them their name. Panel meters are used to indicate an operating parameter, power meter readings, frequency deviations, or to display current and voltage. Panel meters come in a variety of styles and designs, with analog panel meters featuring a needle pointing to numeric gradations on a scale, and digital panel meters providing an LCD or LED display of a numerical reading.

The 2864215 panel meter is part of the 28 series analog displacement meters, and are used to measure the relative position of a movable member within a discrete system. It is capable of measuring both linear and angular displacement over a given range, and provides a reliable indication of the point of position. This meter features a displacement contact with an operating travel of 10 millimeters, and an accuracy of 0.2%. It also has a double excitation control, and a DC voltage rating of 50 volts.

The 2864215 panel meter is suitable for use in applications requiring precise measurements, such as the positioning of steam flow valves, as well as for use in commutation and alignment purposes. The displacement contact allows the panel meter to accurately measure the position of a movable member. Its double excitation control ensures accurate and consistent measurements regardless of the direction of displacement. The meter is also easy to integrate with other systems and can be connected directly to PLC (programmable logic controller) and DCS (distributed control system) equipment.

When the panel meter is in operation, electrical power is supplied from the excitation source to the contact via two pins. The power supply voltage for the exciter is adjustable using a potentiometer, and the current consumption is adjustable too. The power supply voltage is also fed to the system to which the panel is connected, and the contact arm movement is measured and displayed on the analog or digital display of the panel meter. The display can be used to indicate the position of the movable member within the system and can be used to make adjustments or corrections to the system.

The 2864215 panel meter is a reliable and robust instrument that makes for an ideal solution in many situations. It\'s easy to install and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, and it provides exact, accurate readings. With its low power consumption and adjustable excitation, the 2864215 is a versatile panel meter. that can be used in a range of applications.
