GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The premium features of the PAX Lite Series can now be applied to
measurement of process variables. With its high sensitivity and programmability,
the PAX Lite Current Loop Meter can be set up for a wide variety of applications.
In most plants the PAXLCL can be used for 90 to 95% of current loop meter needs
for readout of pressure, flow, temperature, level and other variables. The meter has
been specifically designed for harsh industrial environments. With NEMA
4X/IP65 sealed bezel and extensive testing of noise effects to CE requirements,
the meter provides a tough yet reliable application solution. This allows the
PAXLCL to be used in dirty, hostile environments and in wash-down areas. The
3 1/2-digit bi-polar display (minus sign displayed when current or voltage is
negative) features 0.56" (14.2 mm) high, 7-segment LEDs for easy reading.
