For over 25 years Action's VisiPak indicators prove time and time
again to be reliable cost effective solutions, displaying virtually any
sensor or processes variable desired. We have a lot of experience and
have come a long way from the needle indicators of the past. Today's
solutions offer standard features which define a reliable, top quality
indicator line that won’t let you down. All VisiPak Indicators have
NEMA 4 (or higher) front panel ratings, field configuration and
linearization capability as well as agency approvals (e.g. Factory
Mutual, Canadian Standards Association or Underwriter's Laboratories).
VisiPak's quality is ensured with Action's 3 year warranty.
Modular, Universal Process Indicator V408 with
Modbus® Communications
Action's most advanced indicator is the V408. It is designed to accept
temperature (RTD and thermocouple), pressure or weight (strain gage),
and DC process signal inputs. With better than 2 micro-volt input
resolution and a bright red or green 5 digit display, the V408
accurately measures and displays the majority of signals found in
industrial process control or factory automation applications. The most
significant advantage of the V408 other than its extensive program of
alarming and I/O process functions is its modular design. The V408 has
three I/O expansion slots and one communications slot to hold any of the
14 option modules. This allows the user to configure the optimum
solution for the application by using modules to add functions, such as
a second input for signal comparison. Add a retransmission module to
transmit process variables or setpoint levels. Add digital inputs or
outputs for remote push button acknowledgment, function programming,
alarm status signaling or annunciation. Add a voltage excitation module
to power a strain gage or current loop. Finally, the Modbus serial
communication module can make the V408 and excellent window to the
process, providing measurement data to a local PLC or back to an office
PC. The V408 does it all with a modular design for optimal value and
efficiency.
Miniature (1/32) to Standard (1/8) DIN
Indicators (V1XX) for Temperature and DC Signals
The V108, V116 and V132 are 1/8, 1/16 and 1/32 DIN indicators that are
field configurable for temperature (RTD and thermocouple) or DC process
signals. The V108 has three alarms and two relay outputs in addition to
the 5 digit display. The smaller V116 and V132 have three alarms and one
relay output in addition to the 4 digit display. Programmable as
fail-safe or non-fail-safe latching or non latching, the relays and
alarms can be remotely acknowledged with a push button signal or
accessed via the configuration buttons on the NEMA 4 front panel. These
indicators offer an economical solution to fit most panels and budgets.
Flow, Temperature, Weight, Pressure, AC Power,
Frequency/Rate, Totalization and DC Process (V43X)
The V430 series does it all with indicators for every application. The
V430 accepts DC 4-20mA flow signals and can display the flow rate,
calculate the accumulated flow and control the On/Off filling of
containers with programmable alarm setpoint offsets. The V432 measures
temperature (RTD and Thermocouple) and like all the V43X series has
options for dual relay contact outputs and 4-20mA signal outputs. The
V434 accepts bridge or strain gage inputs and is designed for pressure
or weight applications with Tare, Peak-Hold and alarm setpoint offset
options for easy application solutions. The V436 True RMS AC input
indicator measures AC voltage or AC current to monitor motor loads and
help with preventative maintenance. The V437 accepts frequency or pulse
inputs for rate and totalization applications, similar to the V430 for
flow. The V438 is the DC process indicator with curve linearization
capability as well as full field programmability like the other V43X
series displays.
Loop Powered Field Mount Indicators (V56X)
The V560 series provides a reliable solution regardless of the
environmental conditions. Intrinsically safe, the V560 and V565 are
approved by CSA and FM for use in hazardous locations, either with
safety barriers and the standard NEMA 4X housing or the optional
explosion proof housing. The little V561 explosion proof, loop powered
indicator is handy for easy viewing in pipe mount applications and the
optional back lighting feature sheds light on measurements in those dark
hazardous locations. Whatever the engineering units or environment, the
wide-ranging, filed configurable VisiPak V560 series is a rugged,
reliable solution that has passed the test of time with more than 15
years of field proven quality.
