The extensive Simpson Electric product line includes digital panel meters, analog multimeters, current transducers, sound level meters and megohmmeters. Simpson Electric analog multimeters are used for AC / DC voltage and current measurements, as well as for resistance testing. The company also offers digital panel meters that are used to display a wide range of electrical variables, such as current, flow, speed and voltage. They feature a 4 digit LED screen for high visibility and can be adjusted at 6 levels of brightness. The four input types and choice of degrees C or degrees F display of these panel meters are jumper-selectable. With a maximum accuracy of +/-0.2% of reading + 2.7 degrees F, these digital panel meters provide temperature displays ranging between -328 and 2498 degrees F. These meters are available in Mini-Max and falcon styles.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I wire up an analogue panel meter?
For current monitoring, wire the meters in series. For monitoring voltage, make a parallel wire connection.
On digital panel meters, what do 3.5 & 4.5 digits mean?
Digits are a measure of the display span of a digital panel meter. For example, 3.5 digit is 199.9 anda 4.5 digit is 1999.9.
What is a current transformer?
A current transformer is an electrical device used when AC levels to be monitored go beyond 75 amperes. It generates a 5 amp output for each primary range. The transformer offers additional isolation from the conductor.
