The Alarm System monitors gas line pressure with sensors. The Alarm’s Annunciator determines the status of the pressure and the pressure is displayed on an area alarm module. The alarm module also has trend light LED’s to show that the displayed pressure is either in a normal, caution, or a high or low alarm condition.
When an alarm condition is detected, an audible alarm (approximately 80 decibels measured at 3 feet) will sound and the appropriate red LED will illuminate from the corresponding Area or Master Alarm Module. The audible alarm will sound under one of the four conditions listed below.
