BAR - 1/8 DIN Bargraphs

BAR-X and BAR-A

The BAR-X and BAR-A are user friendly programmable process bargraph displays. The BAR-A is for display only, the BAR-X includes 2 alarm relays. They can mount either vertically or horizontally and are unique in their ease of setup - programmable, but without menus! A fully customisable scale sheet fits behind the protective front window, to allow you to read off the value in your own engineering units.
  • 1/8 DIN (92mm x 45mm) panel cutout
  • Horizontal or vertical mounting
  • Optional outputs

Bargraph displays are ideal if you want to know the ‘fullness’ of a tank, ‘hotness’ of a process etc. Use them in applications where you want to be able to know, at a glance, the relative value of a variable. Similar in principle to moving pointer displays, yet more reliable and robust because they have no moving parts.

Choose from 2 models:

  • The BAR-A is a display-only version
  • The BAR-X has 2 alarm relays.

These displays can be set with a moving dot or accumulating bar format, to suit such applications as position monitoring or tank level indication. And, you can mount the display horizontally or vertically to suit different applications. For example …


To scale and identify the readout, we offer to print customised scale labels for you, free of charge.

The Alarms on the BAR-X model have Failsafe (de-energise on trip) changeover relay outputs, with an LED to show relay status. The alarms are supplied as HI-LO format, but you can easily set HI-HI or LO-LO.

There is also a ‘pump-control’ mode available as standard, where the low alarm will latch, and will only reset when the input exceeds the high alarm limit.
