For Model No. PAXLT0U0 Only

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The PAXLT is a versatile meter that accepts a variety of thermocouple and
RTD inputs and provides a temperature display in Celsius or Fahrenheit. The
readout conforms to ITS-90 standards, with 1° or 0.1° resolution. The 5-digit
display has 0.56" high digits with adjustable intensity. Backlight overlay labels
for °F and °C are included.
The meter features a Maximum and Minimum reading memory, with
programmable capture time. The capture time is used to prevent detection of
false max or min readings which may occur during start-up or unusual process
events. Either value can be displayed if desired. The display can be toggled
manually or automatically between the selected values.
Other features include thermocouple cold junction compensation, display
offset and a programmable user input to perform a variety of meter control
functions. Two setpoint outputs are provided, each with a Form C relay. Output
modes and setup options are fully programmable to suit a variety of control
requirements.
The PAXLT can be universally powered from a wide range of AC or DC
voltage. The meter has been specifically designed for harsh industrial
environments. With a NEMA 4X/IP65 sealed bezel and extensive testing to meet
CE requirements, the meter provides a tough yet reliable application solution.
