Model L1 – Jumbo Process Indicator
Overview
The Model L1 Jumbo Process Indicator is a versatile and robust display unit engineered for monitoring various process parameters such as Temperature, humidity, voltage, and current in industrial environments. Designed to interface with multiple types of input signals including RTDs, thermocouples, and analog outputs from transmitters, the L1 provides precise and stable readings on a large, high-visibility LED display. Its durable construction and reliable performance make it ideal for control rooms, production floors, and outdoor process areas.
Working Principle
The instrument receives signals from RTDs, thermocouples, or analog current/voltage inputs. These inputs are processed through internal filters to eliminate noise or unwanted signals, ensuring accurate readings. A low thermal drift operational amplifier enhances long-term stability, and built-in cold junction compensation (CJC) ensures accurate thermocouple readings regardless of ambient conditions. The unit also supplies excitation voltage to external transmitters, making it a complete solution for process monitoring.
