SPXD Displays Critical Process Variables

The SPXD includes a highly visible 5-digit LCD display that is backlit for easy viewing.

Franklin, MA – July 15, 2008 – Dynisco announces a new intrinsically-safe, loop-powered digital display. The SPXD takes a 4-20mA signal from our SPX pressure sensor or any 4-20mA transmitter and displays the value on a large 1-inch LCD.

The SPXD includes a highly visible 5-digit LCD display that is backlit for easy viewing, even in dark areas. The display also includes a bar graph that shows the measured value in 10% increments of full scale. Power for the entire unit is supplied by the loop. Range setting, decimal placement, offset, and other parameters are easily configured via a front-panel push button.

A unique feature of the SPXD is a pressure-compensated moisture barrier, which prevents the display from fogging in high humidity environments. The entire package is rated NEMA 4X (IP66) for rugged process application. The 1.8 pound unit can be mounted directly to the wall, or an optional wall / pipe mounting kit is also available.

“The SPXD will become a vital link to meet the harsh requirements of a process environment that also demands intrinsically safe protection,” says Mike Davis, Product Manager for Dynisco. “Having FM, ATEX and CSA approvals gains instant acceptance with our most demanding customers. We are happy to have the SPXD join the Dynisco family.”
