1. Product Overview: ABM2 Meter

️· Type: Meter/Controller – likely for process measurement and control.
️· Function: Measures, displays, and potentially controls a process variable. (The specifics of *what* it's measuring aren't explicitly stated.)
️· Website: m-system.co.jp (for more information, including a Scale Plate Designer)

2. Key Specifications & Features

️· IP Rating: IP65 (when single-mounted – important for water/dust protection)
️· Power Supply: Not explicitly stated, but it has terminals for connections.
️· Dimensions: 96mm x 45mm (approx. 3.78 x 1.77 inches).
️· Panel Cutout: 45mm (1.77 inches), with tolerances specified for single and clustered mounting.
️· Scale Plate Customization: Flexible options for scale plates:
- Scale Plate Designer (Online): Allows for automatic or manual design (specify minimum, maximum, units, division intervals, character size, etc.) - registered codes issued.
- Manual Specification: Specify range and units when ordering, and M-System designs the plate (standard automatic design used).
️· Division Types: Five types of divisions are used, depending on the scale span, and specified in detail.
️· Terminal Assignments: Shown in a diagram with descriptions of connections.
️· Circuitry: A schematic diagram is included.
️· Wiring: Input shunt resistors and excitation voltage generators incorporated for certain input types.

3. Scale Plate Design Details

️· Automatic Design: Uses formulas to calculate divisions based on the range (Minimum, Maximum, and Unit). Maximum 43.9 divisions.
️· Division Numbers & Increments: Specific division numbers and increments are defined based on the scale span (e.g., 0.02 / 0.2 / 2 / 20 / 200).
️· Division Line Patterns: Recurring patterns of long, short, and medium division lines.

4. Mounting Information

️· Single Mounting: Necessary for IP65 rating.
️· Clustered Mounting: Not IP65 rated.
️· Panel Thickness: Accommodates 1.6 – 8.0 mm panel thickness.
️· Clearance: Minimum 3cm above and below units for heat dissipation.

5. Ordering Information

️· Scale Plate: Requires specification either through the online designer or by manually specifying range and units.
