VOLTCRAFT AM-60X46/1MA/DC Analog Panel Meter, DC Current 0-1 mA, Moving Coil, 46x60 mm

For precise monitoring of low-level DC currents in control panels and instrumentation, the VOLTCRAFT AM-60X46/1MA/DC stands out with its moving-coil mechanism and a full-scale deflection of just 1 mA. Unlike digital meters that require power and can suffer from display lag, this analog unit delivers an immediate, continuous visual indication directly from the measured circuit—no auxiliary supply needed. Its compact 46 x 60 mm front bezel and shallow 34 mm depth make it ideal for dense panel layouts, while the clear white scale with black markings ensures readability even in variable lighting.

Highlights

• Measures DC current from 0 to 1 mA with a moving-coil movement
• Analog display for real-time trend reading and fast response (~1.5 s)
• Panel-mount design with 46 x 60 mm front, cutout 40 x 55 mm
• Accuracy class 2.5, suitable for general monitoring tasks
• Robust ABS housing in black, IP52 front protection
• Screw terminals for secure, maintenance-friendly wiring

In daily use

Installation is straightforward: prepare a rectangular cutout of 40 x 55 mm, slide the meter in from the front, and secure it with the included mounting bracket. Connect the signal wires to the screw terminals—polarity is clearly marked. The meter is passive, drawing its operating energy from the measured current, so it introduces minimal burden and requires no separate power supply. In operation, the needle responds smoothly to current changes, allowing operators to spot anomalies at a glance. The IP52 front rating protects against dust and dripping water, making it suitable for industrial environments. With a continuous overload capacity of 1.2 times the range and short-term tolerance up to 10 times for 5 seconds, it withstands typical transients without damage.
