Overview
The Texmate FL-B101D40 bargraph meter is a 101 segment, 4.5-Digit LED Bargraph meter housed in a 9/64-DIN casing. This programmable controller combines a 144x36mm panel with 101 segments and a red 4-digit LED display capable of showing readings from -1999 to 9999. The meter delivers real-time visual feedback and precise digital measurement for critical automation and process control applications.
Key Features
- Programmable Tricolor (Red-Green-Orange) or mono color (red or green), 101 segment high brightness bargraph
- Four programmable setpoints with adjustable hysteresis; Setpoint 1 includes delay-on-make and delay-on-break plus special pump control mode
- Two 10 Amp Form C and two 5 Amp Form A relays available for process control and alarm functions
- Automatic intelligent averaging smooths noisy signals while providing fast response to real level changes
- 24 V DC excitation available to power external 4/20mA transmitters and 5 or 10 V DC excitation for resistance bridge type sensors
- Bargraph center zero function for bidirectional measurement

- Process parameter monitoring (pressure, flow, temperature via external transducers)
- Voltage and current measurement with relay-based alarm output
- Industrial automation panel displays for PLC systems
- Real-time bargraph feedback with digital numeric readout
- Control applications requiring programmable setpoints and relay activation

Replaces / Drop-In Replacement For
The FL-B101D40 is the base Leopard Series bargraph meter. Function-specific variants (FL-B101D40-RPM for RPM measurement, FL-B101D40-TC for thermocouple temperature, FL-B101D40-RTD for RTD sensors, FL-B101D40PF for power factor) use the same 144x36mm form factor and may share mechanical mounting compatibility, though input signal conditioning differs by model.
Works With
- 4-20mA analog loop inputs
- 0-10V DC analog inputs
- AC and DC excitation sources for sensor power
- Relay-based automation platforms and control panels
- Industrial measurement and monitoring systems
