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 has a 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.
