    This document provides specifications for K Series optical meter relays/self-contained controllers made by D'Arsonval. The K Series includes models 303-K, 503-K, and 603-K. It operates on an optical principle where a light source and photocell are positioned by the setpoint mechanism to actuate a relay based on the meter pointer position. It is immune to electrical noise and best for noisy environments. Specifications include accuracy of ±2%, tracking, balance, repeatability, overload capacity, response time, and dimensions for each model.

    Optical Compack Controllers operate on an optical principle associated with the meter mechanism. A light source (incandescent
    lamp) and a photo-resistive cell combination are positioned by the
    setpoint mechanism. An opaque vane is attached to the meter
    mechanism so that when the indicating pointer reaches the setpoint
    the vane intercepts the light from the source, causing a sharp
    change in resistance of the photocell. The resistance change is
    used to actuate a relay driver circuit for control of an external load.
    The response characteristics of D'Arsonval mechanisms automatically provide filtering of the input signal, making Compack Controllers immune to line noise and transient surges. Optical type
    controllers are the best choice for applications in electrically noisy
    environments.
