DMR20-0/5 Process Monitors consume less than 10mA.
Press Release Summary:
Using 0–5V or 0–10V signaling, DMR20-0/5 Process Monitors are housed in DMR20 one-piece plastic package. Operated from source of 5V, 12V, 24V, or 36V dc power, units are available in red or green LED display. Featuring 0.30 in. digit display, 20-turn potentiometers, EPDM rubber gasket and hex nut, products can be installed in 30.5mm panel cut out. Monitors power supply and input connections are made using screw-type terminal block.
Original Press Release:
Murata Launches New 0-5V Input Process Monitors in Miniature Round Housing DMR20-0/5 Series Works from 5 to 36Vdc Supplies
Murata today introduced a new series of process monitors from Murata Power Solutions that feature high visibility LED displays. The DMR20-0/5 Series line is ideally suited for industrial process control and monitoring utilizing 0–5V or 0–10V signaling, Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) based instrumentation, and process control test and calibration equipment. Both models in the line are housed in the proven, round DMR20 one-piece plastic package that easily installs in an industry standard 1.2-inch (30.5mm) panel cut out. The large, easy-to-read, 0.30 inch (7.6 mm) digits are available in a choice of either red or green LED display. Further, the series draws less than 10mA and can be operated from any regulated source of 5V, 12V, 24V, or 36V dc power.
With a rugged one-piece plastic housing that makes it ideal for environmentally demanding applications, the DMR20-0/5 is also the smallest process monitor available on the market. Its power-supply and input-signal connections are made via a reliable, three-position, screw-type terminal block. An EPDM rubber gasket and hex nut simplify installation and provide IP67/NEMA 6 protection to environmental dirt and moisture, including water submersion up to three feet (one meter).
The DMR20-0/5 process monitors include all the necessary conditioning circuitry to enable a user to scale the 0–5V or 0–10V signal to the desired numerical readings of the parameter being measured. Gain and offset adjustments are performed with on-board, precision, 20-turn potentiometers, which eliminates the need for more expensive, longer-lead-time customs products for applications that use various range meters. These features make the solution easy to install and streamline calibration activities.
“The DMR20-0/5 series features bright LED displays with wide viewing angles and are easy-to-read in practically all ambient light environments. Murata’s technological leadership allows us to develop and deliver the custom designed, high efficiency, miniaturized solutions that today’s market requires,” said Bill Smith, Product Manager, Murata Power Solutions.
