Jewell FML Series – Frequency Meters
The pointer type frequency meters, FML 96 and FML 144 housed in molded polycarbonate cases are used for the measurement of frequencies in the range of 45 to 450 Hz. For maximum accuracy, the essential measuring range is obtained by suppressing the unwanted frequency span. These instruments offer several advantages in switchboards and panel cut out. A number of meters can be mounted in a panel cut-out (mosaic mounting). The front glass, bezel, and dial can be easily replaced.
Modutec W-Series Windo-mount™ Panel Meters
Windo-mount™ is a sophisticated design that has been found universal acceptance since being introduced many years ago by Modutec. The W series meters are easily installed per applications bulletin AB6-1; when so installed the meter cover is flush with the panel surface, with the dial easily read.
W series meters are available in the same ranges and at the same prices as the S series meters. They offer an excellent functional appearance, plus the looks enhancing edge options available. These meters are very popular for stereo and broadcast equipment.
Modutec BL Series
The MODUTEC BL Digital panel meter gives you all the functionality you need with none of the extras you don’t need. That means simplicity, easy readability, a small footprint, and a low cost.
Jewell DE Series – Moving Iron
The moving iron panel meters, DE 48/72/96/144 housed in cases made of molded polycarbonate are suitable for the measurement of AC currents for the frequency range of 15 to 400 Hz and voltages in the frequency range of 15 to 100Hz. Moving iron meters indicate RMS values practically independent of waveform even of high harmonics. An error of indication may occur for extreme waveforms (e.g. phase gating controls) & for frequencies above 100KHz.
These meters offer several advantages in switchboards and generating set panels. A number of meters can be mounted in a panel cutout mosaic mounting. For CT-operated ammeters, dials can be fitted based on CT ratio. Glass and bezel can easily be replaced.
Modutec 0MS & MSQ Series Square Panel Meters
Traditional square meters with the look of the 80s and a low price tag. These have operating zero adjusters and scales printed on translucent plastic, permitting diffused back-lighting using either the external light kit described in “Options” or custom lighting. Installation holes and cutouts are interchangeable with domestic and foreign designs, making product improvement quick and easy.
Modutec MD & ME Series Edgewise Panel Meters
Useful space-saving meters in two sizes, interchangeable with many costly d’Arsonval meters or moving magnet meters from other sources. All sizes feature flush-to-panel covers without the bulge that disfigures many edgewise meters. A low-cost option provides internal illumination through a translucent dial – sophisticated lighting unusual in any economy meter, let alone an edgewise type.
Modutec DW Series Digital Panel Meters
Get digital accuracy with an analog footprint. The DW Series is a cost-effective solution to retrofitting an analog panel cutout with a digital meter. Custom nomenclature available. Easy hook up from the rear with four studs. The MODUTEC DW Series is available as DC and AC Power Monitors and Process Monitors.
Modutec MC1 Series – 250° High Torque Taut-Band Movements Meters
Modutec MC1 movements are technically advanced and offer outstanding features not found in other 250° movements. Their unusually small size and their refined taut-band suspension mean high performance in the area of accuracy, tracking, and repeatability. Their unique design includes shock limiters and vibration stops which combined with optional Fluidyne®
viscous damping gives them exceptional durability and stability in difficult environments.
Mounting is usually by means of three tapped brass standoffs which are swaged to either the front or the back of the movement, as ordered, permitting installation within its 1.25″ O.D.
Dials can be mounted to standoffs on the front of the movement; however, MC1 movements are usually ordered with a universal mounting plate (see drawing) installed. This not only serves as a dial mount but also coordinates with the mounting requirements of many domestic and imported movements. Note that front standoffs are not available when the universal mounting plate is installed.
Standard movements come without front and back dust caps. Either or both will be installed when specified on order.
Jewell FM Series – Frequency Meter

Model 820 Shallow Water Tiltmeter Series
The model 820 Shallow Water is a high-precision submersible tiltmeter for use in fresh and saltwater applications. Using an absolute gravity-referenced electrolytic sensor, the 820 delivers superior measurement accuracy with virtually no long-term drift. High-gain units are sensitive to <0.0017 mm/m or better. Output options include analog (±5 VDC, ±10 VDC), current (4-20mA), and digital (RS-232 and RS-422). All units are rated to 200 meters (656.2 ft) waterproof for advanced protection from the elements. Use the 820 “Shallow Water” for structural monitoring, angle measurement and control, platform leveling, and more.
Modutec 2% Panel Meters 2810/CLE8 Series
Features unique case design, enclosed meter movement with the scales located behind an internal housing for greater dust resistance. Scales can be replaced without chance of damage to the movement. Available in sizes 3.5″ and 4.5″.
Modutec 1000 Series Digital Panel Meters
The Modutec 1000 takes the guesswork out of reading a small, low-cost, digital panel meter. These meters have an over-range indication of the rated value and auto-zero when there is no input signal. They also feature auto polarity which visually clues the user to a negative reading.
The Modutec 1000 features a 0.3-inch digit display in red or green for hard-to-read applications. Choose from bezel or window mount snap-on bezel – neither of which need extra hardware or panel holes. At 1.34″ x 0.75″ and panel depth less than 0.8″ these meters are easy to read, small units that fit into almost any application.
