PD8-6081 ProtEX-MAX Explosion-Proof Feet & Inches Modbus Scanner with Dual Analog Inputs

Brand: Precision Digital Corporation

The ProtEX-MAX™ PD8-6081 feet & inches Modbus® scanner offers all the functionality of the ProVu PD6081 as a fully FM, CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approved explosion-proof product. 

It displays level information on a specially designed feet & inches display, instead of the usual decimal format.

The PD8-6081 also has dual analog inputs, for integrating traditional 4-20 mA or voltage inputs in the display scanning. 

The scanner can be setup as a Modbus master, slave, or snooper. 

Various math functions may be applied to the analog or Modbus inputs, such as addition, difference, average, and ratio. 

The PD8-6081 includes a 24 VDC power supply to drive the transmitter and can be equipped with four internal relays and two 4-20 mA outputs. 

It can be programmed and operated without opening the housing by using the built-in SafeTouch® through-glass buttons.
