K3HB - Application specific meters that are made to measure

The K3HB is an advanced range of 1/8 DIN (48X96mm) panel meters. Containing 6 application specific products, these models include analogue and pulse input options, and applications covered include analogue, weighing, linear sensor, rotary pulse, interval and up/down counter.

Each model has been designed to include the functionality required for their specific application making them simple to set up. A choice of output and option boards further expand the versatility of K3HB allowing the meter to be tailored to the application so that they can be used for new build or as a valued addition to an existing installation.

Features and benefits

• A choice of 6 application specific models featuring required special functions.
• Two colour change display (red & green) and a configurable bar graph which can display deviation, amplitude, or proximity. 
• IP66 (nema4x Front Panel)
• On board power supply can be fitted to give 12VDC100mA for powering the input device. 
• Output options include relays (5A@250VAC), pulse voltage, linear mA or V. 
• Up to 5 set points can be set to give HH, H, PASS, L and LL positions.
• Simple teach and go process for display scaling means that you read the actual input value and then decide what this is to be on the display for both max and min points the meter then calculates the full scale deflection between these.
• Standard DIN size (HxWxD) 48x96x100mm fascia size and 45x92 panel cut out. 

Application Speed matching between two separate conveyors ensures the correct transfer of materials. In this case if the belts are at different speeds the boxes will either fall forward or backwards. By comparing the two belt speeds a linear output from the K3HB can be used to adjust one conveyors speed to ensure matching and smooth transfer. (K3HB\04_measuring_rotational.swf)

Application A linear output flow sensor is used in the pipe to measure the flowrate through the tube, the K3HB-X is used as a local display, and can be the first indication of potential problems within the system, a leak would cause the flow rate to increase as the liquid is lost, a blockage would cause a decrease in flow rate.
