Red Lion PAXR0020 PAX Rate Panel Meter, 5 Digit Sunlight Readable LED, 1/8 DIN, 85-250 VAC
PAX series rate panel meter with 5-digit sunlight readable red LED display, 1/8 DIN housing, programmable user inputs, min/max rate memory, optional setpoint alarm outputs, and 85-250 VAC input power.
Why Choose the Red Lion PAXR0020 Rate Panel Meter?
The Red Lion PAXR0020 PAX series rate panel meter is made for industrial rate indication where a bright, sunlight readable 5-digit display is needed at the machine or control panel. The 0.56" red LED readout supports rate values up to 99999 and includes annunciators for rate, high rate, low rate, and optional setpoint output states.
This meter accepts switch contact, CMOS, TTL, magnetic pickup, and RLC sensor inputs, and it supports directional, uni-directional, and quadrature signals. Three programmable user inputs, adjustable brightness, min/max rate memory, and parameter lockout give operators flexible monitoring without leaving setup settings exposed after commissioning.
☀️ Sunlight Readable LED
5-digit 0.56" red display with adjustable brightness for industrial panels
⚡ 34 kHz Max Frequency
Rate display supports 0.01 Hz minimum frequency up to 34 kHz maximum
🔁 Flexible Signal Inputs
Works with switch contacts, CMOS/TTL outputs, magnetic pickups, and RLC sensors
🚨 Optional Setpoints
Four setpoint alarm outputs can be added with an optional digital output plug-in card
⚠️ Use Safeguards for Control Applications
This panel meter is not made to directly command motors, valves, or actuators without safeguards. Use the proper output card, interlocks, protective circuits, and machine-control design practices when setpoints are used in an industrial control system.
📋 Rate Monitoring Uses
The PAXR0020 is suited for industrial rate indication and machine monitoring.
Use it for speed display, production rate monitoring, high/low rate indication, min/max rate capture, equipment status display, and applications where directional, uni-directional, or quadrature signals need to be converted into an operator-readable rate value.
