A new range of low cost DIN RAIL mount switching power supplies designed especially for the industrial automation markets. This new SPD product line offers a wide range of power and voltages providing DC power for all low power devices commonly used in automated machinery.

The New KOSMOS Micra-M, is a programmable instrument which accepts input signals for: Process (mA, V), Temperature (sensor Pt100, thermocouples J, K, T), or Load Cells (mV/V, mV). Two scaling methods and selectable last digit resolution allow programming the display to match desired application, Colour display programmable, the MicraM let you choose between GREEN, AMBER or RED colour assignable to measure, programming or alarm activation.

PICA100-P  KOSMOS series, size 1/32 DIN with 4 digits LED red8 mm high, designed for measuring process signals in range from 0 to 10 V, 0 to 20 mA, 4 to 20 mA

PICA40-LP  KOSMOS series, Panel instrument LOOP POWERED (active loop) 

Indicator for PROCESS (4-20 mA). Display range –1999 to 9999, programmable decimal point.

Ditel Capture software compatible with: Windows95, 98, Me, NT, 2000 and XP. Software for data acquisition up to 32 DITEL digital panel meter instruments type PICA100-P, MICRA, ALPHA, BETA and KAPPA allowing  4 simultaneous graphics on the screen and data storage in an xls file for all  information captured.

A new family of LCD display indicators with low consumption, for applications as a counters, Time meters, tachometers, batch counters etc…. Its own lithium battery supply and its small size 48 x 24 mm, (1/32 DIN) LITIA-D and LITIA-H, makes them very flexible and useful to replace the classical electromechanical counters. Also in the case size 48 x 48 mm, (1/16 DIN) is a wide range of counters, chronometers and tachometers

The “PRO” (PROgrammable) Series bar graphs are the ideal choice for new applications, or for the replacement of switchboard meters, obsolete indicators, and set point controllers. Ametek/Dixson bargraphs are appropriate in any application where moving pointer meters have been used in the past, and in applications where greater accuracy, readability, and reliability are desirable.  

The Nemo 96 3DSH manufactured by IME is housed in a flush mounting enclosure of 96 x 96mm, and will measure and display three phase voltage, current, power (kw, kVA, kVar), frequency, power factor and energy (kWh, kVarh), maximum demand (kW) and peak demand.

Ditel, founded in 1984, is now an established specialist authority in Europe, for the manufacture and supply of digital panel meters and controllers. With a research and development department, always incorporating the latest technologies, it ensures that products are constantly updated and extremely competitive. A wide range of digital panel indicators is now available from Vydas, with applications in the field of industrial process control (pressure, flow, weight, displacement, temperature meters) and electrical process (voltmeters, ammeters, frequency meters), together with slave displays, counters, tachometers, timers, controllers and accessories. All products manufactured by Ditel are available Ex-stock or very short delivery and have a 3 year warranty.
