NTDS46-12AL NTP Time Zone Clock 10,2 cm
The NTDS46-12AL is the largest model in the time-zone range: a 10.2 cm 6-digit time display on the top row and a 12-character alphanumeric display 5.8 cm tall on the bottom row.
For large installations that must be visible over tens of metres AND need longer zone labels (for example 'AMSTERDAM', 'LOS ANGELES', 'HONG KONG'). Typically deployed on trading floors, in international broadcast centres and in large dispatch centres. Available in red, green, blue, amber.
