88961-08

The 8896-08 is a panel meter/counter used primarily in industrial environments. It is a multi-functional device that can be used for logging, tracking, and monitoring various data and performance variables. It has three display modes, two of which are digital and one analogue. It also has a “free mode”, where the user can set the display or input parameters to whatever they wish. The digital display modes allow for cumulative, batch, or incremental counting, and includes a built-in memory for logging/recording the data. The analogue display mode can be used to monitor and display real-time data from various sensors.

The 8896-08 features an 8-bit microcontroller and can accept input from various sources including digital and analogue. It also has a clock/timer to accurately track and record elapsed time. In addition, the 8896-08 has various user-settable alarms and can be configured to trigger an alarm when a predefined threshold is breached. The alarm can be configured to turn on/off different outputs such as an LED indicator and/or relay contacts.

The 8896-08 can be used in many different applications such as monitoring motor speed, machine operation times, and water levels. It can also be used for logging data during production processes, studying the performance of a production line, and monitoring various environmental variables. In addition, it can be integrated with a variety of other devices like programmable logic controllers to automate the process.

The working principle of the 8896-08 varies depending on the application. In applications where the device is used as a counter/logger, it keeps track of the number of times the counted pulse is activated or the monitored value reaches a predefined threshold. The 8896-08 can also be used to store the measurements taken by an attached sensor in its memory for further analysis. In applications where it is used as an analogue meter, the microcontroller within the device processes the analog signal from the attached sensor and then displays the measurement on its display.

Overall, the 8896-08 is a versatile and reliable multifunctional panel meter/counter that can be used in many different applications. It is designed to be easy to use and integrate into existing systems. With its many features, the 8896-08 is an excellent choice for any industrial or commercial setting.
