ProVu - Model PD6000 -Dual Line 6 Digit Process Meter
The ProVu meter boasts specifications and functionality that clearly make it one of the most advanced process meters available. Its dual-line 6-digit display (999,999), advanced signal input conditioning, function keys, Modbus RTU serial communications, and optional expansion modules are only a few of the features found on the ProVu PD6000.
FRONT PANEL DISPLAYPrecise, Accurate, and More Informative
ProVu`s large 0.6" upper display provides a highly accurate and precise 6-digit view of the process measurement. Its 24-bit A/D is accurate to ±0.03% of calibrated span ±1 count.
Configurable
The upper display can be programmed to indicate PV, maximum (peak), minimum (valley), alternating maximum/minimum, one of eight alarm set points, or Modbus input. The lower display can also be configured to display engineering units, set points, user defined legends, or simply turned off.
Optional SunBright Display Models
ProVu`s SunBright display models have an extraordinarily bright LED display. They are perfect for applications where the meter is in direct sunlight or in applications where visibility may be impaired by smoke, fog, dust, or distance. Option is available on all ProVu models.
Function Keys
There are three function keys available to the user. These keys can be programmed to trigger certain events (i.e. acknowledge alarms, reset max and/or min, disable/enable output relays, or hold current relay states), provide direct menu access points, and more.

Rugged
A unique front panel design makes the ProVu digital panel meter nearly impenetrable in typical applications. Here, the ProVu easily survives a direct hit on the display from a heavy 2" solid stainless steel ball dropped from eight feet.
Easy to Use
The user friendly dual-line display makes the ProVu easy to set up
& program. No jumpers to set for input selection. All setup & programming is done via the front panel. Three levels of password protection help maintain the reliability of the programming.
Dual-Scale Display Feature
The ProVu PD6000 has a rather unique and very flexible dual-scale capability; a second scaled display can represent the measured input in a different form (i.e. gallons & height). This is of particular value in level applications. Please see the examples shown below. Both displays are independently scaled and are based on the 4-20 mA input signal. Beyond level, this function has been used for pressure & force, current & power, feet & meters, GPM & CFM, and more.
