Large, cost-effective display series

June 2006 Operator Interfaces, Switches & Relays

Red Lion's new LD Series of large displays is designed to offer great visibility at an economical price. The initial release in this series includes both 4 digit and 6 digit models, with bright 57 mm high, red LED displays that are readable up to 40 m. The 4 digit version is available as a totalising counter only, while the 6 digit versions are available in a single, totalising counter model and a dual counter with rate indication model. The 6 digit model with dual count and rate also features count input scaling, a 5 A form C relay output, serial RS232/RS485 communications capabilities, and has front panel keys for programming.

The next release in this series will be a 100 mm high, red LED display version, with both 4 and 6 digit versions as described above. These units should become available later this year. The LD's ruggedly constructed, lightweight, extruded aluminium case is designed to meet NEMA 4 requirements.
