85243-92

Panel meters, counters and hour meters are some of the most common types of instruments used to measure, display and record various types of parameters in industrial and commercial applications. The 85243-92 panel meter is a type of hour meter specifically designed to provide accurate readings of elapsed time, and the working principle behind it can be quite complex.

The 85243-92 hour meter is an electromechanical counter designed for use with four-wire systems or two-wire systems. The meter can measure time increments of 1/120 of a second, and it is used to provide an accurate record of elapsed time between the start and stop of a process. The meter has two parts – an input counter and an output counter. The input counter counts the input pulses, while the output counter is used to display the elapsed time as hours or minutes.

When a signal is sent out through the meter\'s input circuit, the input counter starts to count. Once the desired number of pulses has been counted, the output counter starts counting the time in hours and minutes. The pulse rate of the meter is adjustable and can be changed to suit the process that is being monitored.

The 85243-92 panel meter has a wide range of applications in industries such as manufacturing, utilities, automotive, farming, construction, and food processing. The meter is used to keep track of the elapsed time of various processes, to monitor workers’ productivity, and to measure the efficiency of machinery. It can also be used to track the usage of utility resources such as electricity, water, and gas, and to monitor the effectiveness of safety devices, such as smoke detectors.

The meter is designed to provide accurate readings and has a range of features to ensure its accuracy. The meter is powered by a battery, and it can also be powered by an AC source if needed. It features an LED display that shows the elapsed time in total hours and minutes and a double-pole switch to start and stop the meter. The meter is also designed to be shock and vibration proof, and it has a weatherproof housing.

The 85243-92 panel meter is an essential instrument used to measure, display and record various types of parameters in industrial and commercial applications. Its accurate readings and reliable features make it one of the most popular panel meters on the market today.
