ACA5-20PC-11-AC1-RL-C Industrial Controls

Introduction to Panel Meters

Panel meters are devices that are used to measure and display electrical parameters like voltage, current, and power. These devices are typically mounted in control panels, instrument panels, or electric devices, thus the name panel meter. Panel meters are used in many power applications, including electric motors, air compressors, and industrial equipment.

ACA5-20PC-11-AC1-RL-C Application Field and Working Principle

The ACA5-20PC-11-AC1-RL-C panel meter is a type of current transducer used to measure AC current. This type of meter is designed to measure current ranging from 0 to 20 Amps AC. The device is built with electronic components that allow for precise measurement of AC current in a wide range of applications. The meter is also equipped with a filter and has a response time of less than 1 second. The ACA5-20PC-11-AC1-RL-C panel meter is designed for direct connection to a load cell or a transducer.

The device is equipped with an internal rectangular wave shaper, which converts the sine wave into a square wave. This output is then used to drive an AC to DC converter that generates a proportional voltage output. This voltage output is then further processed to produce an analog output that is proportional to the measured current. The output can be monitored through a precision scale meter which is connected to the meter’s output terminals.

The ACA5-20PC-11-AC1-RL-C panel meter also features an alarm circuit, which can be used to generate an output signal whenever the measured current exceeds a predetermined level. The alarm level is adjustable and can be set to provide visual or audible alarms. The meter is also equipped with a hold function, which can be used to retain the maximum or minimum current values for later viewing and troubleshooting purposes.

The ACA5-20PC-11-AC1-RL-C panel meter is a versatile device that can be used in many industrial applications, such as electric motors, industrial equipment, and air compressors. The device is constructed from a rugged metal housing and can withstand a wide range of environmental conditions. The device is also designed to provide long-term accuracy and reliability and requires minimal maintenance. The meter is easy to install and can be connected to a variety of current transducers or load cells.
