MODEL PAXLIT - PAX LITE 5 AMP AC CURRENT METER
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AC currents. The internal current shunt in the PAXLIT can measure up to 5
Amps AC current directly. Using an external current transformer, AC currents
of up to 1,999 Amps can be measured and displayed.

selectable decimal points, the display can be customized for direct readout for
practically any application.

also available with custom units label capability. Using the PAX label kit
(PAXLBK30), the selected label is installed behind the panel, keeping it safe
from washdown or other environmental conditions. A DIP switch is used to
control the backlight for the units label.
