Description
The Fluidwell D053 is a versatile, panel mount pressure indicator with a continuous pressure monitoring feature. It offers the facility to set one low-pressure and one high-pressure alarm value. If desired, an ignore function can be set up to allow for incorrect pressure for a certain period of time.

The Fluidwell D-Series is a front panel mount indicator, controller and monitoring system for measurement applications in industrial environments. It is the robust alternative for your existing, not waterproof, panel meters.
Features
- Displays actual pressure and alarm values.
- Pressure: six large 17mm (0.67) digits.
- Two-alarm values can be entered: low and high-pressure alarm.
- Ambient temperature: -40°C to +80°C (-40°F to 176°F).
- Selectable on-screen engineering units: mBar – Bar – PSI.
- Aluminum DIN front panel of 144 x 72mm (5.67” x 2.83”) according to DIN 43700 / IEC 61554.
- Red flashing LED backlight in case of a pressure alarm.
- Various accessories are available for this product.
- Large 17mm (0.67”) digits.
- LED backlight option.
- Ability to process (0)4-20mA or 0-10V DC signals.
- One free configurable alarm output, available as passive signal, active signal or a robust, highly isolated (NO/NC) relay.
- Power requirements: Input loop powered, battery powered or 8 – 30V DC, 24V AC and 115 – 230V AC.
- Sensor supply: 8.2 / 12 / 24V DC.
- Auto backup of settings and running totals.
- Ambient temperature -40°C up to +80°C (-40°F up to 176°F).
Configuration
- All configuration settings are accessed via a simple operator menu which can be password protected. Each setting is clearly indicated with an alphanumerical description, which avoids confusing abbreviations. Once familiar with one D-series product, you will be able to program all models in all series without a manual. All settings are safely stored in EEPROM memory in the event of sudden power failure.
Display
- The Fluidwell D053 display has large 17mm (0.67”) and 8mm (0.31”) digits which displays the pressure, measuring unit and alarm values. The display is a transflective type, which means that a high contrast reading is guaranteed, even in full sunlight. The D053 has a smart display update function incorporated. Related to the lower temperatures, the update frequency of the LCD is tuned automatically to achieve a readable display even at -40°C / -40°F
Backlight
- The white backlight in combination with the D053 offers a unique feature: in case of a pressure alarm, the backlight can be set to be red or flashing red. The intensity can be adjusted in the configuration menu
Alarm output
- One alarm output is available to transmit the pressure alarm. It can be set to switch for a low, high or both alarms! The output signal can be a passive NPN, active PNP or a robust, highly isolated electro-mechanical relay (NO/NC).
Power requirements
- The basic power supply for the D053 is 8 – 30V DC. Several other power supplies are possible: With the 24V AC/DC and 115 – 230V AC power supplies, an 8.2 / 12 / 24V DC sensor supply is offered. For analog sensors, a 4 – 20mA input loop powered version is available. Finally we offer a long life lithium battery with a life expectancy that will last up to five years.
Signal input
- The D053 does accept (0)4 – 20mA and 0 – 10V input signals from any type of pressure measurement device. The input signal type can be selected by the user in the configuration menu without having to adjust any sensitive mechanical dip-switches, jumpers or trimmers. Also a 4 – 20mA input loop powered model is available
Enclosures
- The D053 is supplied in a unique, robust IP66, IP67 (NEMA Type4X) class panel mount front enclosure made of die cast aluminum, based on a popular DIN sized enclosure of 144 x 72mm. The front enclosure withstands powerful water jets and even total immersion.
- The maximum thickness of the panel is 6mm (1/4”). The D-Series is the better alternative for your existing, not waterproof, front panel mounted indicators.
Advantages
- Familiar easy operation with the Fluidwell “Know one, know them all” configuration structure, saving time, cost and aggravation.
- Unique, robust IP66, IP67 (NEMA Type4X) panel mount front enclosure made of die-cast aluminum, allowing even big jets of water and total immersion.
- Intuitive “Know one, know them all!” configuration menu, saving time, cost and aggravation.
- Resistant to harsh weather conditions: rain, snow, salty atmospheres.
- Only a few inches depth clearance for smaller, low cost panels and panel doors
Applications
- The Fluidwell D053 fits in applications where continuous pressure measurement and monitoring is important.
- The Fluidwell D-Series is a DIN-sized display and the better alternative for your existing, not waterproof, front panel mount indicators in extreme weather outdoor applications or e.g. in food industries where working environments are often cleaned with powerful water jets.
