The Omron K3HB-VLC 100-240VAC is a panel-mount process meter from the K3HB-V series, accepting a ±199.99mVDC input range. That 199.99mV full-scale means it's sized for low-level transducer signals — pressure cells, strain gauges, or 0-10V dividers scaled down — not for direct line-voltage monitoring. The dual-color LCD shows two rows of five characters each, with the main display at 0.560" (14.20mm) and the sub-display at 0.192" (4.90mm), letting you read both process value and a second parameter (peak, valley, or scaled engineering unit) simultaneously. Supply is 100~240VAC, so it runs directly off a panel control transformer without needing a separate 24V DC power supply. Termination is via screw terminals, which suits panel wiring practices where ring or fork lugs are preferred over push-in connectors.
Panel fit and environmental sealing
The front panel carries an IP66 rating, meaning it's dust-tight and protected against powerful water jets — suitable for washdown zones in food, beverage, or pharmaceutical lines where a hose-down is routine. The panel cutout is rectangular at 92.00mm x 45.00mm, a standard 1/8 DIN footprint, so it drops into existing cutouts without adapter plates.
