The OMEGA[®] DPi8/CNi8 is a[1] ⁄8 DIN size  (96 x 48 mm) Digital Panel Meter featuring the big  iSeries color-changing display. The digits are twice the size of typical[1] ⁄8 DIN panel meters.  The iSeries meters feature the only LED displays that can be programmed to change color between **GREEN** , **AMBER** , and **RED** at any set point or alarm point. 

The “DPi8/CNi8” model is available as an extremely accurate programmable digital panel meter with no outputs or with dual outputs for controlling or alarming functions. Other options include isolated programmable analog output, serial communications, MODbuS[®] and Ethernet. The user can easily program the DPi8/CNi8 for any control or alarming requirement from simple on-off to full autotune PID with a choice of Form C SPDT relays, Solid State Relays, DC pulse, and Analog (voltage and current) outputs. 

Fully Isolated Analog Output for retransmission of the process value is available in addition to the control and alarm relays (specify model CNi8A33). 

The DPi8/CNi8 covers a broad selection of transducer and transmitter inputs with two input models: 

The uNIVERSAL TEMPERATuRE 

& PROCESS instrument (model “i”) handles ten common types of thermocouples, multiple RTD’s, and several Process (DC) Voltage and Current ranges. 

Process Voltage and Current ranges. The “iS” has built-in 5 or 10 Vdc excitation for bridge transducers, 5 Vdc@ 40 mA or 10 Vdc @ 60 mA. (Any excitation voltage between 5 and 24 Vdc is available by special order). This “iS” model supports 4 and 6 wire bridge configurations, ratiometric and non-ratiometric measurements. The “iS” features fast and easy “in process” calibration/scaling of the signal inputs to any engineering units. This model also features 10 Point Linearization which allows the user to linearize the signal input from extremely nonlinear transducers of all kinds. 

This model also features built-in excitation, 24 Vdc @ 25 mA. With it’s wide choice of signal inputs, this model is an excellent choice for measuring or controlling temperature with a thermocouple, RTD, or 4-20 mA transmitter. 

The STRAIN & PROCESS instrument (model “iS”) measures inputs from Load Cells, Pressure Transducers, and most any strain gauge sensor as well as
