DR5000 Circular Chart Recorder
Effective March 2022 the DR5000 is Obsolete
Due to supply chain interruptions and component obsolescence the DR5000 had reached its End of Live (EoL) and is no longer available.
There are a limited number of Chart Platen assemblies for 1 & 2 pen CCW rotation are available with price page link here and to the right under DR5000 pricing..
Charts and replacement ink chart cartridges will continue to be available.
There are a limited number of misc. components to repair field units.
This web page will remain with all product links and text descriptions for an extended time to allow users access to support information.
Future Design Controls DR5000 circular chart recorder is available in one or two* pen versions utilizing traditional drag pen. The DR5000 utilizes recent microprocessor technology combined with a robust pen & chart drive gear motor design offers industry leading reliability at significantly lower cost than older legacy designs.
DR5000 Ease of Use and Configuration
Operator interface & configuration are simple with a status LED providing all operational information.
The DR5000 unique configuration chart provides documentation on recorder configuration minimizing recorder configuration questions and issues of incorrect configuration.
DR5000 Options
The Options include, Nema 4 [Nema 3 is standard] and 9VDC battery back-up to operate the recorder for up to 48 hours without line power. Non-cataloged options for low voltage operation, input ranges, transmitter power supplies and more are available.
Traditional Ink Circular Chart Recorder Chart Types:
Partlow & Honeywell 10" charts
The DR5000 may be specified to accept either Partlow or Honeywell recorder charts allowing a form, fit and function replacement for Partlow MRC5000 and Honeywell DR4200 & DR4300 recorder only models (no PID control nor a digital display for the process variable (PV)). The DR5000 accepting legacy charts allows both end users and OEMs flexibility to use the most cost effective circular chart recorder hardware without affecting their current procedures, part numbers and vendors for recorder charts.
Partlow charts run counterclockwise (CCW) while Honeywell charts are Clockwise (CW). The DR5000 ordering matrix allows selection of CCW or CW for chart rotation.
LED Display of Process Variable (PV)
Effective September 30, 2020 the DR5000 optional LED display reached its End of Life (EoL) and is no longer available. DR5000_Optional_PV-Display_EoL_09-30-2020.pdf
Alarm Relays
Effective September 30, 2020 optional alarm relays are no longer available.
Thermal "Print your own Chart" Recorder
Effective December 10, 2018 the DR5000 with the Thermal Recorder option has reached end of life and is no longer available.
Replacement parts including the thermal print arm are available as long as supply lasts.
Private Labeling
OEM and Distributor private labeling is available.
