DMS -EB-LP
4-20mA Current Loop
Application Board for
DMS-30LCD Meters
Actual Size
Features
Technical Notes
Description: The DMS-EB-LP was specifically designed for 4-to-20mA current-loop
process-monitoring applications. The board simply mounts onto the rear of a DMS-
30LCD-1-5, allowing both the application board and the meter to be powered solely from
the 4-to-20mA loop input. Align pin 1 of the board with pin 1 of the DMS-30LCD-1-5 and
simply solder the two assemblies together.

Loop-powered, no external
supply required
Includes gain (span) and offset (zero)
adjustments
Range and decimal point settings are
DIP-switch selectable
Features: Gain (span) and offset (zero) adjustments are both performed using precision,
22-turn potentiometers. Decimal point selections and range changes are all made on an
eight-position DIP switch featuring gold-plated contacts — there are no cumbersome
jumpers or solder gaps to contend with! Connections to the loop are made via a reliable,
screw-type terminal block. The only assembly tool required is a screwdriver!

Covers hundreds of different ranges
Reliable screw-terminal connections
Low cost
Applications: The DMS-EB-LP's design accommodates hundreds of different display
reading combinations.This essentially
eliminates the need to order "specials" in

applications in which several different-
range meters are required. OEM
customers should consider using
DATEL's new DMS-30LCD-4/20S which
already has the DMS-EB-LP soldered to
a rugged DMS-30LCD-1-5 digital
voltmeter.
