Product Overview
The Franklin Electric INCON® 1250B-4 Programmable Position Monitor is an advanced measurement instrument designed for determining absolute local and remote transformer load tap changer (LTC) positions. Featuring a standard 4-20 mA analog output, this monitor interfaces with virtually all transformer LTCs to assist in balancing loads, regulating line voltage, and reducing overall power costs. Because the 1250B-4 can effectively convert rotational position to a non-linear indication, it is also highly suited for specialized infrastructure applications, such as hydro dam gate position monitoring.
Key Features & Capabilities
- Analog Output: Provides a 4-20 mA analog output for seamless integration with external control and SCADA systems.
- Display: Integrated 5-digit LED display for precise local reading.
- Capacity: Capable of monitoring up to 100 definable position segments.
- Flexible Programming: Can be configured via three methods: numeric menu, alphanumeric menu, and serial port programming commands.
- Installation Compatibility: May be wired directly to the synchro transmitter or wired in parallel with existing synchro transmitter/receiver pairs.
- Form Factor: Panel-mount case designed to snap-fit securely into a standard 1/8 DIN (44mm) rectangular cut-out.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does the 1250B-4 interface with my existing equipment?
A: The unit is highly adaptable; it can be wired directly to your synchro transmitter or wired in parallel with an existing synchro transmitter and receiver pair.
Q: What are the physical mounting requirements for this monitor?
A: The 1250B-4 is housed in a panel-mount case designed to snap-fit directly into a standard 1/8 DIN (44mm) rectangular cut-out.
Q: Can the 1250B-4 be used for applications other than transformer LTC monitoring?
A: Yes. Its ability to convert rotational position into a non-linear indication makes it ideal for other complex mechanical measurements, such as hydro dam gate positioning.
