Slim…Trim…Simple for Basic
Digital Recording At Its Best!
APPLICATIONS:
Ideal for basic digital recording applications with
shallow depth panel requirements.
• Process Validation
• Trend Analysis
• Regulatory Compliance
• Product Safety
- Temperature
- pH Level

processing, harsh water environments
compact panel depth and short protrusion from the
front panel. The mode switch, located next to the
display, provides two functions. When in the PROG/
CAL/TEST position, it provides access to program
parameters, calibration facilities and test functions.
Hardware options are matrix selectable and are
shipped with default settings. The MRC 5000 directly
connects to either thermocouple, RTD, mVDC, VDC, or
mADC inputs. Changes in input type are easily
accomplished in the field through programming. This
instrument has a universal power supply, 90–264VAC
line voltage at 50–60Hz.
