Description
DEIF
TYPE: XL96
PANEL INDICATOR / AZIMUTH INDICATOR
ART.NO: 68704
ORDER NO: 400044432.20
INPUT: 4-20MA SINGLE
LOAD: <500OHM
The DEIF XL96 is a panel-mounted indicator designed to display azimuth and process values onboard vessels, accepting a standard 4–20mA single input signal. As part of a marine control system, this instrument provides clear, reliable readout of directional or process data at the operator panel level, supporting safe and informed decision-making in critical onboard environments. Accurate panel indication is essential to maintaining situational awareness in bridge, machinery, and control room applications, making components such as this integral to day-to-day vessel operations.
Key Features
✓ Accepts a 4–20mA single input signal with a load of less than 500 ohm, suitable for connection to standard transmitters and control outputs found across marine automation systems.
✓ Functions as both a panel indicator and azimuth indicator, enabling display of directional or analogue process values at the control station — DEIF Art. No. 68704, Order No. 400044432.20.
✓ Designed for panel-mount installation in enclosed control cabinets, operator consoles, or bridge panels; exact environmental ratings and certifications are subject to confirmation based on configuration.
✓ Compatible with DEIF control and monitoring systems where 4–20mA analogue signal interfacing is required; compatibility with specific panels or controllers should be confirmed against system documentation.
✓ As a direct replacement or retrofit component, sourcing the correct DEIF XL96 variant ensures signal integrity and display continuity within the existing marine control system architecture.
Marine Applications
✓ Bridge and wheelhouse control panels on merchant vessels requiring azimuth or directional readout from thruster, steering, or positioning systems.
✓ Machinery control rooms and engine control consoles where 4–20mA analogue process values need clear local indication.
✓ Dynamic positioning (DP) systems and thruster control installations on offshore support vessels, platform supply vessels, and similar dynamic positioning-equipped craft.
✓ Ferry, RoRo, and passenger vessel bridge panels integrating DEIF instrumentation for propulsion or manoeuvring monitoring.
✓ Retrofit and upgrade projects on any vessel type seeking to restore or replace failed panel indicator units within an existing DEIF-based marine control system.
Why Marine Engineers Choose
DEIF instrumentation is recognised across the maritime industry for dependable signal handling and robust panel-mount design.
