What analogue indicators are used for

Analogue indicators visualise measured values using a pointer and scale, allowing important operating parameters to be read quickly and clearly. In rail vehicles, they are used to display values such as speed, rotational speed, braking force and temperature.

The noriMeter analogue indicators use a microprocessor-controlled, high-resolution stepper motor for precise indication and can be equipped with a range of additional useful functions. Cost-effective indicators with a moving-coil element are suitable for simple indication tasks. Their robust design makes them suitable for demanding railway environments, and they meet the requirements of EN 50155.
