Plug-on display for 4-20 mA transmitters

June 2001 Temperature Measurement

Kobold's model AUF plug-on display is a universal local 4-digit display for use with pressure, flow, temperature and level transmitters with 4-20 mA outputs. No additional auxiliary power is required.

The plug-on display is simply plugged in between connector and socket; it is then ready for operation. The display is user programmable - scaling, the position of the decimal point, update time and switch point (optional) may be set with two keys. The menu steps are output to the LED display field.

The programmed parameters are stored in an EEPROM; and retained after power failure. Over/under range is displayed as a message on the LED display. All device functions are continuously monitored by an internal diagnostic system. The indicating unit can be rotated in 90° steps; it can thus be adapted to different installation positions. The integral PNP output allows a transmitter to be retrofitted easily with a limit switch. There is also a version available for use in hazardous areas.

Instrotech is the sole distributor for the Kobold instrumentation range.
