Vintage Simpson Model 26 DC Ammeter -800 to +800 Amperes D.C. Range Panel Meter
This is a Simpson Model 26 DC Ammeter panel meter that measures direct current (D.C.) in Amperes. The specific scale indicates a range of 800-0-800 Amperes, meaning it's a center-zero meter capable of reading current flow in both directions.
Key Specifications
Feature Detail
Model 26
Manufacturer Simpson Electric Co.
Measurement Type Direct Current Amperes (D.C. AMPERES)
Full Scale Range 800 - 0 - 800 A
Shunt Requirement Requires an external shunt (FS=50mV)
Important Information
Operation: The "25-30-0-50 MV" marking below the scale indicates that this is a millivolt meter designed to be used with an external 50 mV current shunt. The meter measures the small voltage drop across the shunt to display the actual current in amperes, as connecting the meter directly into an 800 A circuit would destroy it.
