Photometric Analyzer
Alarm Relays:
There are three alarm-circuit connectors on the alarm relays block
(under RELAY OUTPUTS) for making connections to internal alarm relay
contacts. Each provides a set of Form C contacts for each type of alarm.
Each has both normally open and normally closed contact connections. The
contact connections are indicated by diagrams on the rear panel. They are
capable of switching up to 3 ampers at 250 V AC into a resistive load
(Figure 2-6).

• Can be configured as high (actuates when
concentration is above threshold), or low
(actuates when concentration is below thresh old).
• Can be configured as fail-safe or non-fail-safe.
• Can be configured as latching or nonlatching.
• Can be configured out (defeated).
• Can be configured as high (actuates when concen-
tration is above threshold), or low (actuates when
concentration is below threshold).
• Can be configured as fail-safe or non-fail-safe.
• Can be configured as latching or nonlatching.
• Can be configured out (defeated).
Actuates when DC power supplied to circuits is
unacceptable in one or more parameters. Permanently
configured as fail-safe and latching. Cannot be de-
feated. Actuates if self test fails.
