DPM Series

The Two-Minute Analog-To-Digital Meter Retrofit

Upgrade error-prone analog meters quickly with highly accurate, solid state Universatile digital indicators from RT Engineering.

DPM Panel Meters

The physical mounting dimensions of the DPM Series match most existing analog meters, eliminating the need to recut and redrill existing panels.

Capable of accepting AC or DC input signals from 50 mV to 500 V, one model can display Amps, Volts, RPM, GPM, FPM or other rate related engineering units of measurement. Accuracy, Reliability and Versatility backed by a two-year warranty.
