CUB5 Digital Panel Meters
HMS Networks/Red Lion Controls versatile, user-programmable mini digital panel meters feature optional setpoint outputs and communication upgrades
The HMS Networks/Red Lion Controls CUB5 digital panel meter series is one of the most versatile and powerful miniature panel meter lines on the market. These cost-effective, compact devices offer unmatched flexibility for displaying and controlling a wide range of industrial measurements. Each CUB5 meter is fully user-programmable via front-panel pushbuttons or software, and it can adapt to changing application requirements thanks to field-upgradable, plug-and-play option cards that add functionality without replacing the base unit.
The CUB5 series supports an extensive variety of input types, making one model suitable for multiple monitoring needs in manufacturing and process control. Specialized CUB5 models can serve as 8-digit dual counters and rate meters (ideal for counting and timing applications) or as 5-digit analog meters for parameters like DC voltage, current, process signals, and temperature (thermocouple/RTD). The meters capture minimum and maximum readings for process monitoring, allow configurable display scaling and offset (including a programmable unit indicator), and provide a programmable user input that can be used for functions such as remote reset.
- Compact, miniature panel meter design (approximately 2.95" x 1.5") to save panel space without sacrificing performance
- Bright 0.48" (12.2 mm) 5- or 8-digit LCD available in reflective or red/green LED-backlit versions (with user-selectable display color and adjustable brightness)
- Minimum and maximum value capture for tracking process extremes over time
- Configurable display scaling, offset, and unit indicators for custom readouts and engineering units
- Programmable user input for remote functions (e.g., external reset or hold)
- Field-upgradeable design with two plug-in option card slots for expanding capabilities as needs evolve
- Optional serial communication modules (RS-232 or RS-485) for connectivity to PLCs, SCADA systems, or other devices
- Optional setpoint output cards (single relay or dual sinking transistor) for alarm and control output functionality
- Optional USB programming card for quick configuration via PC using Red Lion Crimson® 2.1 software
- Wide operating power range: 9 VDC to 28 VDC input (with an optional AC power module for 85 VAC to 250 VAC)
- Display color change at setpoint outputs provides visual alarm indication
- Rugged NEMA 4X/IP65 sealed front panel for reliable use in harsh or washdown environments
- Industrial manufacturing and automation: Part counting, batch tracking, and production rate monitoring on assembly lines, packaging machines, and other factory automation equipment
- Process control systems: Monitoring of flow totals, pressure, temperature, or other process variables in industries like chemical processing, water/wastewater treatment, and food and beverage production, with the ability to trigger outputs at preset values for process control
- Energy and power monitoring: Measuring DC voltage, current, and other electrical parameters in power supply units, battery backup systems, solar/renewable energy installations, and industrial power distribution panels
- Equipment and machine OEM integration: Incorporation into control panels of industrial machinery, such as pumps, compressors, HVAC systems, or generators, to provide local digital readouts and alarm indication for critical parameters
- Test and measurement setups: Counting events, timing processes, or displaying sensor outputs in laboratory test rigs and automated testing equipment, where a compact, easily configurable digital display is required
