Get a quote

The ProtEX-MAX™ PD8-6200 offers all the functionality of the ProVu PD6200 as a fully FM, CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approved explosion-proof product. It is specifically designed to display flow rate and total from an analog output (4-20 mA, 0-5 V, 1-5 V, etc.) flowmeter. It displays that signal on a dual-line, 6-digit Sunbright sunlight readable display. Flow rate is typically displayed on the upper line and the cumulative total is displayed on the lower line. The total overflow feature allows up to a 9-digit total and grand total to be displayed. The PD8-6200 includes a 24 VDC power supply to drive the flowmeter and can be equipped with up to four internal relays and a 4-20 mA analog output. It can be programmed and operated without opening the housing by using the built-in SafeTouch® through-glass buttons or the RS485 serial communication port with free Modbus® protocol.

Rate/Totalizer
Rate Display Indication 0 to 999999, lead zero blanking. “R” LED illuminates while displaying rate. Total Display & Total Overflow: 0 to 999,999; automatic lead zero blanking. “T” LED is illuminated while displaying total and “GT” for grand total.

Total Decimal Point Up to five decimal places or none: d.ddddd, dd.dddd, ddd.ddd, dddd.dd, ddddd.d, or dddddd. Total decimal point is independent of rate decimal point.
Totalizer Calculates total based on rate and field programmable multiplier to display total in engineering units. Time base must be selected according to the time units in which the rate is displayed. Selectable up/down count. Total Conversion Factor: 0.00001 to 59,999
Totalizer Rollover Totalizer rolls over when display exceeds 999,999,999. Relay status reflects the display value.
Total Overflow Override Program total reset for automatic with 0.1 second delay and set point 1 for 999,999
Totalizer Presets Up to eight, user-selectable under the Setup menu. Any set point can be assigned to total and may be programmed anywhere in the range of the meter for total alarm indication.
Programmable Total Reset Delay 0.1 to 999.9 seconds; applied to the first relay assigned to total or grand total. If the meter is programmed to reset total to zero automatically when the preset is reached, then a delay will occur before the total is reset.
Total Reset Via front panel button, external contact closure on digital inputs, automatically via user-selectable preset value and time delay, or through serial communications.
Total Reset Password Total and grand total passwords may be entered to prevent resetting the total or grand total from the front panel.
Non-Resettable Total The grand total can be programmed as a non-resettable total by entering the password “050873”. Caution: Once the Grand Total has been programmed as “non-resettable” the feature cannot be disabled.

  • Automatic reset only (non-latching), when input passes the reset point or total is reset to zero.
  • Automatic + manual reset at any time (non-latching).
  • Manual reset only, at any time (latching).
  • Manual reset only after alarm condition has cleared (latching).

Note: The front panel button or digital input may be assigned to acknowledge relays programmed for manual reset.

Fail-Safe Operation Programmable and independent for each relay.Note: Relay coil is energized in non-alarm condition. In case of power failure, the relay will go to alarm state.
