Jewell DGL Series – AC Ammeters/Voltmeters

The moving coil, rectifier panel meters DGL 48/72/96/144 are housed in polycarbonate cases and are suitable for the measurement of AC currents and voltages. Moving coil rectifier instruments measure average values and are calibrated to indicate RMS values, assuming a sinusoidal waveform for frequencies from 40 to 10000 Hz (AC current – 40 to 1000 Hz and AC Voltage – 40 to 10000 Hz). These instruments offer several advantages in switchboards and generating set panels. A number of meters can be mounted in a panel cutout (mosaic mounting). The front glass, bezel, and dial can be easily replaced.

Additional information

Features

• Better Resolution
• Less VA burden
• Linear Scale
• Glass-filled polycarbonate housing (UL 94-V-0)
• Knife-edge pointer
• Easily replicable glass and bezel

Movement

Moving coil movement has pivots of very high hardness. Movement is suspended between spring-loaded sapphire jewels. Movement is properly shielded and critically damped by eddy currents induced in coil former.

Case Options

• Antiglare glass front fascia
• Red, yellow, blue, or white bezel color
• Front adjustable on-site red index pointer
• 0° to 180° position of use available on request

Dial Options

• Blank dial with initial and end values marked
• Number or letter markings
• Basic divisions without numbering
• Red or green markings or bands

Other Options

• Increased sensitivity to 4kohm/V for voltmeters 1 – 600V, and 10kohm/V for voltmeters 15 – 150V
• Resistance adjustment within ±1% at 23°C
