APM-1 Transmitter/Controller

Brand: KOBOLD Instruments, Inc

The KOBOLD compact transmitter / controller APM-1 measures and controls the pH value or redox potential in aqueous solutions. It is available as panel-mounted device according to DIN/EN 61554 or as field housing. Measured values and parameters are displayed on a high contrast graphic display in plain text.

Easy configuration via buttons or PC with optional software provide a simple and user friendly operation. An integrated math and logic module enables the integration of the measured values in mathematical formulas so that the measured variables can be displayed.

The transmitter has two Analog and two binary inputs. The two control relays can be used as limit value or two position, three position, three position controller or continuous controller with P-, PI-, PD- or PID action. 

The modular units can be retrofitted with 3 plug-in boards and so be upgraded flexibly for different measuring and control task.
