    MX 16 controller is digitally compatible with OLCT 10N, OLCT 80, OLCT 710, iTrans2, 700 and Meridian gas detectors. In the event the user connects a non- TELEDYNE OLDHAM SIMTRONICS brand • detector to the MX 16 controller, the user must ensure that the detector is compatible with the input characteristics of the controller, so that the information delivered by the detector will be properly interpreted (see transfer curve on the following page).
  • Page 56 MX 16 ANALOG AND DIGITAL CONTROLLER USER GUIDE Highest alarm set point for flammable gases shall not exceed 60% LEL and shall be of • a latching type. • Over-range (flammable gases) As soon as gas concentration exceeds 100% LEL, MX 16 stores the over-range >100% LEL.
