The ProtEX-MAX PD8-6200 explosion-proof flow rate/ totalizers are specifically designed for displaying flow rate and total from flowmeters with analog outputs. The meter boasts specifications, features and functionality that make it the only hazardous area flow rate/totalizer you will ever need.
 
The PD8-6200 has all the same features as our PD6200 1/8 DIN flow rate/totalizer, but it is not just a meter stuffed in an explosion-proof enclosure like many of our competitors offer. The PD8-6200 is approved as a complete product by FM and CSA and also carries IECEx approvals. Besides being suitable for hazardous areas, the number one feature that makes the PD8-6200 such a useful device is its built-in 24 VDC power supply to drive the transmitter as illustrated by the above diagram. This feature not only saves the cost of an external power supply, but also greatly simplifies wiring. In addition, there is a second 25 mA power supply provided with the 4-20 mA output option.
 
The first thing you notice about the PD8-6200 is its modern looking, rugged, die-cast aluminum housing with convenient mounting flanges. Housed inside this enclosure is a dual-line, 6-digit display with high-intensity LEDs that can be read in direct sunlight. The main display can be programmed to display flow rate, total, or grand total, and the second display can be programmed to display flow rate, total, grand total, engineering units, custom legends, or turned off.
 
ProtEX-MAX flow rate/totalizers can be programmed for a wide variety of totalizer applications. They can display total, grand total, or non-resettable grand total with a time base of seconds, minutes, hours or days. The user can program a totalizer conversion factor, a non-resettable grand total, password protection, and several total reset methods. Finally, all these features and capabilities can easily be programmed without removing the cover using SafeTouch buttons in a hazardous area or with free MeterView Pro PC-based software in a safe area.
