RS PRO Analogue Panel Ammeter 20 mA DC, 68 mm x 68 mm, 1% Moving Coil 186-2488

RS PRO 186-2488 Analogue Panel Ammeter is a precise metering instrument designed for DC current measurement up to 20 mA with an accuracy of 1%. It uses a permanent magnet moving coil movement housed within a robust 68 mm x 68 mm molded polycarbonate square case, suitable for mounting on DIN style control and switchgear panels.

The meter's moving coil movement consists of a durable magnet, an aluminum coil suspended on pivots, a hairspring, and a jewel mechanism, providing linear and calibrated scale readings down to zero. This ensures accurate average value measurement of current in industrial and laboratory environments.

It delivers reliable operation within the temperature range of -10°C to 65°C, making it adaptable for diverse industrial, electrical, automation, manufacturing, and process control applications. The knife-edge pointer provides easy readability with a deflection of 0° to 90°, while the meter withstands shock impacts up to 15g for short durations, preserving instrument integrity.

Overload capability up to 1.2 times the nominal current ensures durability during transient conditions. The unit’s protection includes a maximum operating temperature of 65°C and less than 75% relative humidity operation without condensation.

The compact footprint of 68 mm by 68 mm cut-out with a depth of 54 mm integrates well into machinery consoles and panel assemblies. The robust polycarbonate construction offers toughness and electrical insulation performance with IP52 protection rating.

The RS PRO 186-2488 complies with numerous international standards such as ISO 20653:2006-08, IEC 529, 2014/35/EC, UL 94 V-0, VDE 0100-410:2018-10, IEC 61010, DIN certifications, and CE, ensuring high-quality and safe use.

This analogue ammeter is ideal for industrial machines, HVAC control systems, electrical panels, and process control equipment, providing a dependable current monitoring solution for professional and commercial settings.

Features a moving coil mechanism for reliable and accurate current measurement. Designed for DC current measurement up to 20 mA with a nominal range of 15µA to 100A. Compact 68 mm x 68 mm square molded polycarbonate case fits DIN style panels.
