5.5 Alarm Relay

Two alarm relays are built into the alarm relay socket on the

back panel of the Monitor. The function of the pins in this female

connector are shown in

Fig.5.2

. The two alarm relays can be

connected to a variety of either audio (for example, a siren)

and/or visual (for example a flashing light) alarm systems and

they are activated whenever a pre-defined concentration (alarm

level) of one (or more) of the gases being measured is exceeded.

Alarm signals are given by opening and closing the relay contacts.

Both relays are closed when the Monitor is switched off and when

the Monitor is switched on. This means that there is a direct

electrical connection between pins 1 & 2 and pins 4 & 5 at all

times except when the Monitor measures a gas concentration

which is greater than the corresponding alarm limit for the gas.

When this concentration is measured, the Monitor breaks the

connection between pins 1 & 2 or 4 & 5. The monitor will

furthermore activate the internal beeper and write the following

message on the display:

REGULAR SELF - TESTS ?
