Universal DC Input
Red Lion PAXD0000 PAX Series Panel Meter - Universal DC Input
5 digit red LED 1/8 DIN meter for DC voltage, current, and resistance inputs with scaling, totalizer, and option-card expansion.
✓ Universal DC Input Meter with Scaling, Totalizer & Option Cards
Input types: DC voltage, DC current, resistance, excitation, totalizer, setpoint, communication, and analog output options
Overview
The
Red Lion PAXD0000 PAX series panel meter is a universal DC input meter with a 5 digit red sunlight readable LED display in a 1/8 DIN housing. It accepts voltage, current, and resistance inputs and provides front-panel setup with five function keys, including three programmable keys.Universal DC Input16 Bit A/D85–250 VAC
This AC powered meter supports 16 point scaling for non-linear processes, MAX/MIN memory, signal totalizing, and field-upgradeable option cards for four setpoint outputs, communication, and retransmitted analog output.
📈 Flexible DC Process Measurement
Input Flexibility: Supports 4 voltage ranges up to 300 VDC, 5 current ranges up to 2A DC, and 3 resistance ranges up to 10K Ohm.
Scaling & Totalizing: 16 point scaling, 9 digit totalizer, and MAX/MIN reading memory help adapt the display to process values.
Expansion: Option cards can add RS232, RS485, Modbus, DeviceNet, Profibus DP, four setpoint alarms, or retransmitted analog output.

✅ Why Choose This Panel Meter?
The PAXD0000 is a versatile DC input display for panels that may need voltage, current, resistance, totalizing, scaling, alarm, communication, or retransmitted output functionality from the same meter platform.
Applications
Use the PAXD0000 for industrial DC measurement and scaled display applications:
- DC voltage monitoring
- DC current monitoring
- Resistance input display
- Non-linear process scaling
- MAX/MIN process tracking
- Signal totalizing and time-input calculations
⚠️ Important Application Info
This unit is not intended to directly command motors, valves, or actuators without safeguards.
Confirm the selected input range before energizing. Follow the user manual for voltage, current, resistance, excitation, and option-card wiring.
Setup parameters can be locked after configuration to prevent unauthorized changes.
Performance Benefits
- Universal input design reduces the need for separate meter types
- 16 bit A/D converter and scaling support precise process display
- Option cards make the meter field upgradeable
- Sunlight readable red LEDs improve visibility in bright conditions
🔧 Field Upgradeable Design
Field-upgradeable option cards allow alarms, communication, and retransmitted analog output to be added when the application requires them.
