Description
The most visible, easy to use, programmable panel meter on the market. The APM Frequency Meter measures pulse inputs from 2 to 400Hz with 0.5% accuracy at 25°C, converting DC pulses from speed and rate sensors into a clear digital and analog readout. It combines the instant readability of an analog meter with the precision of a digital meter: a 40-segment curved bar graph gives an immediate visual indication, while four 12mm digits provide a precise numeric readout.
This variant uses a negative (dark-background) LCD, giving strong contrast in normal indoor and panel-mounted lighting conditions.
The colour-changing backlight can be programmed to alert operators when a monitored value is too high or too low, reducing the risk of equipment failure and improving efficiency. Free APM configuration software allows full customisation of scale and range, with 16 preset configurations selectable via back-panel switches and 20-point non-linearisation scaling for non-linear sensors. This is a display-only variant: it gives a clear, at-a-glance bar-graph-and-digit reading of frequency but has no configurable outputs, alarms, or communication interface — ideal where a local visual reading is all that’s required.
Typical applications include industrial automation, material handling, motor control, and speed measurement.
