Smith MeterTM PD Meter Counter Transmitter

Model LNC Transmitter

Specifications
Issue/Rev. 0.1 (1/93) Bulletin SS01045

The Model LNC (Large Numeral Counter) Transmitter adapts to a 600 Series LNC to provide a contact closure for signaling remote instrumentation. It chops a fixed level input voltage to form a square wave pulse (with minimum contact bounce) for use with transistorized circuits such as an electronic drive control. The LNC Pulse Transmitter consists of a rugged die cast explosion-proof housing with a screw-type cover for easy access to the pulsing mechanism. The transmitter utilizes a dry reed switch, magnet, and gear train, synchronized to provide 1 or 10 contact closures per revolution of the right-hand wheel, as required.

Features
UL-Listed, CSA-Certified Explosion-Proof. Square Wave Pulse - Minimum contact bounce. Choice of 1 or 10 contact closures per revolution of right-hand wheel. Reliable - Long life.

Models
Model No. LNC-1 LNC-10 Closures per Revolution of Right-Hand Wheel 1 10

Contact Timing 40 to 50% on, the balance off. Resolution One to ten contact closures per revolution of the LNC right-hand wheel. Operating Temperature Compensated for -40F to 160F (-40C to 71C). Torque 3.0 oz-in (4 Ncm) maximum. Life Expectancy 20 million contact closures at rated load or 2 million revolutions of input shaft. One hundred million at 1/2 rating with 10:1 ratio. Up to 200 million at reduced load. Contact Protection Arc suppression is required when used with ac circuits. Type and value of suppression will vary with coil and coil voltages. Housing UL-listed, CSA-certified for use in Class I, Groups C and D hazardous locations.

Specifications
Contact Rating Maximum Power: 50 VA resistive. Maximum Voltage: 250V (ac or dc). Maximum Current: 3 Amps continuous. Type Switch Dry Reed Switch (SPST). Contact Resistance 500 milliohms. Actuating Time 0.001 second average. Contact Bounce 0.001 second average. Speed 0 to 2,500 contact closures per minute.
