PANEL METER: ANALOG PANEL METERS
Discontinuation Notice
After much consideration, Brighton Electronics, Inc. has decided to discontinue the manufacturing of ANALOG Panel Meters as of Dec 31, 2020. We will be accepting orders of any analog panel meters not available in our Oregon warehouse until November 1, 2020. For all analog panel meters available in our Oregon warehouse, we will be accepting orders until the inventory is depleted. The standard warranty terms will be honored for all units shipped to date.
Analog Panel Meter Mechanism Types
Taut Band
A D'Arsonval Taut Band panel meter mechanism is comprised of a permanent magnet and moving coil. The suspended Taut Band is constructed of high quality alloy material which offers the customer durability and long life. This type of movement offers the advantage of friction free suspension.
Pivot & Jewel
A D'Arsonval Pivot & Jewel panel meter mechanism is comprised of a hardened pivot between two polished bearing surfaces, this movement is very rugged and shock resistant. This mechanism is suitable for use in marine, process and industrial applications.
Iron Vane
The AC Iron Vane (Moving Iron) mechanism is used primarily in AC Voltage, AC Current and Power Measurement applications. These meters are rugged in both design and construction. They offer the advantage of more accurate True RMS measurement capability when distorted, or non-sinusoidal waveforms are present.
