History of the Advanced Panel Meter

Trumeter’s Advanced Panel Meters (APMs) have cemented their place in the industry by setting new standards in versatility, customization and design innovation. Since the launch of the first APM in 2008, the APM has been redefining the panel meter market and offering industries a smarter, more adaptable solution to monitoring and measurement.

Improving the Digital Panel Meter

The idea for a more advanced panel meter was inspired by the longstanding demand for digital panel meters (DPMs), but with significant improvements in readability and functionality. Trumeter’s first iteration of an improved DPM enhanced the size and resolution of the screen, giving operators a clearer and more intuitive view of data.

The Advanced Panel Meter

Encouraged by feedback and insights from customers, Trumeter embarked on a journey to create an even more advanced digital panel meter. This next generation, called Advanced Panel Meters, featured a fully digital display, interactive scaling, and customizable backlighting options. These improvements marked a significant evolution, transforming digital panel meters from simple readout tools into dynamic, adaptable systems that enhance operator engagement and safety.

Configurability: A Key Strength

A key strength of Trumeter’s APMs lies in their configurability. The meters are paired with intuitive software that enables users to tailor settings to specific requirements effortlessly. This user-friendly software makes setup a breeze, allowing for fine-tuning without complex programming or extensive training. The plug-and-play nature of APMs has made them a popular choice across various industries, from manufacturing and utilities to automation and process control.

The legacy of Trumeter’s APM series is a testament to the power of innovation and customer-focused design.
