PD6938-GP VantageView+ NEMA 4X Pulse Input Flow Rate/Totalizer

 

The PD6938, with the addition of its two optional relays, can also be used as a simple batch controller.

 

One of the most convenient features of these instruments is their dual-line display, which is typically used to display the flow rate on the top display and flow total, flow grand total, or a tag on the bottom display. The top display has five characters and the bottom display has eight characters for clear indication of tags, units, or alarm messages. Further enhancing the display on these instruments is a 20-segment bargraph and backlighting that can turn red during an alarm condition.

 

The PD6938 VantageView+ comes in a NEMA 4X, IP66 plastic enclosure that is designed for easy use and installation. There are three 3/4" NPT threaded conduit holes available for wiring. Two 3/4" NPT plastic conduit plugs are included. Field wiring is made to removable screw terminals and the display module can be oriented in 4 different positions to accommodate different mounting configurations and requires no tools to install. The display has been designed to optimize viewing angle.

 

Free, PC-based, MeterView XL software that connects to the meter via a micro-USB cable is available for programming and setup of the instruments. Four CapTouch through-window buttons are available to operate the instrument without removing the cover.

 

All models come equipped with two open collector outputs and a digital input. There are also models available with Modbus RTU RS-485 communications, two solid-state relays, and isolated 4-20 mA analog output options. The open collector outputs are useful for alarm indication or pulse output. The digital input can be used to reset the total, to start/stop a timer/stopwatch, to start/stop a batch, and more. The relays can be programmed for alarm indication, on/off control, or simple batch control.
