set-points.
MGS Controllers support multiple input sensors/
transmitters (1, 2, 4, or 6 channels) based on the
model of the controller. Inputs are standard 4-20 mA
signals from MGS-series sensors or any standard,
linear, 4-20 mA transmitter.
The instrument is powered 100V-230V AC (50-60Hz) or
12V DC (specified at time of order).
