DC Panel Meters

July 24, 2018
DCM20 series from Murata support high and low-side current monitoring.

The DCM20 series of multifunction panel meters measure DC voltage and current, calculate power up to 96 kW, and display values either manually selected or continuously cycling. The miniature panel-mount product provides an input voltage range of 0.5 to 72VDC, with 10mV of resolution. The meter also supports current measurement ranges from 5 to 1200A when used with an external user-supplied resistive shunt. Targeted for use in 12, 24 or 48V systems, out-of-the-box accuracy of the product is +/-1 % for voltage and +/-2 % for current.

Features:

  • Supports both high-side and low-side current monitoring
  • Long-life contactless touch-sensor function selector switch
  • Low current consumption (< 10 mA at 12 VDC)
  • Internal self-resetting fuse
  • One-piece polycarbonate housing fits ‘0U’ & ‘1U’ racks
  • Compact surface mount design occupies minimal panel space
  • Bright LED-display with four function annunciators
  • Choice of red, green or blue display
