rated NEMA 1 suitable for installation in non-hazardous locations.
The single channel modular design supports application flexibility wherein multiple function gas detection systems
can be configured in any combination up to four channels. All control modules are plug-in front panel accessible

fied at time of order.
The control enclosure houses a modular power supply (Model PS80-12B) which includes, as standard operating con-
trols, a power on/off switch and a line power fuse. Discreet output terminal strips located on the controller mother-
board are provided for sensor terminations, Form C dry contact alarm outputs for three alarms plus fault (common
and choice of normally open or normally closed), 4-20 mA outputs for remote recording devices, and RS-485 serial
Modbus™ output. Additional terminations are provided for VAC power in, VDC power in, and remote alarm reset.
The Form C relay outputs, may be discreet, zoned, or common by gold plated jumper tabs located on the con-
