Next Generation Multi-Gauges<br />

Simple, Compact, Reliable<br />

AMETEK Dixson’s NGI technology is now available in space-saving multi-gauges<br />

that provide two, three, or four independent gauge functions in one shallow-depth<br />

3 3/8-inch or 5-inch case. Multi-gauges feature the same technology and reliability that<br />

has made NGI so successful in all commercial and industrial vehicular applications, with<br />

stepper-motor pointer drive, light-piped LEDs for backlighting and pointer illumination. O-ring<br />

sealing, red warning LEDs, and locking plug-in connectors. Backlighting intensity can be varied<br />

by the dashlight dimming control.<br />

Standard Features...<br />

• Any combination of electrical gauges<br />

• Reliable, accurate stepper motor pointer drives<br />

• Shallow-depth case<br />

• LED backlighting and tip-to-hub illuminated<br />

orange pointers<br />

• Red warning LED with black dead-front in<br />

each gauge<br />

• All gauges perform a self-test when ignition<br />

switched on<br />
