Why Choose Amelec Panel Meters?

What Are Panel Meters & Displays?

Panel meters and displays are instruments designed to visually present process inputs (such as 4–20 mA, 0–10 V inputs, pulse counts, or loop-powered signals) on high-visibility indicators. Amelec’s panel meter range is typically non‑microprocessor hardware-based, offering stable, repeatable displays for critical industrial signals without software latency or interference Tumblr+14Amelec Instruments+14Amelec Instruments+14.


Why Choose Amelec Panel Meters?

Non‑Processor Design for Reliability

Units like the APM489‑4.5 and APM489‑6‑BCD use analog circuitry rather than microprocessors, offering high stability, seismic qualifying (S2) and suitability for SIL‑rated safety loops Amelec Instruments+12Amelec Instruments+12.

Formats for All Needs

Feature‑Rich Flexibility

Wide Power & Input Range Support

Most units support 95–265 VAC power with 24 V DC options, while loop-powered models eliminate external power needs. Front-panel pushbuttons or calibration jumpers make display scaling easy even after installation Amelec Instruments+1Amelec Instruments+1.
