LPI-PT
1. INTRODUCTION
The LPI-PT is a microprocessor controlled loop powered display for any 4 ~ 20
mA standard signal. It does not require its own separate voltage source as it is
supplied directly from the measuring current loop.
The measured value is displayed on a 4-digit LCD with a wide max. display
range of -1999 to +9999 digits.
The operating range of the display device can be directly adjusted to the
transmitter without any accessories being required. Simply enter the maximum and
minimum measuring range limits and the decimal point position.
The Plug-on display LPI-PT is fit for all of the transmitters and converters with 4
~ 20mA 2-wire technique, just as pressure, differential pressure, temperature, flow,
PH, acceleration and so on. 16-bit ADC MCU inside, allows customer to use the two
buttons, to program the zero point, span, decimal point, damping and alarm point etc.
Over or under range are displayed as a message. The integrated smart diagnostic
system continuously monitors all device function. The programmed parameters are
stored in an EEPROM to be restored in case of a power failure. The plug-on display is
simply plugged in between connector and socket; it is then ready for operation. The
plug-on display is powered by the current loop of the 4 ~ 20 mA signal transmitter. No
additional auxiliary power is required. The plug-on display can be rotated in 90 steps; it
can thus be adapted to different mounting positions.
