  • Page 7: Overview

    OVERVIEW Pem-Tech model PT950-B is a microprocessor based single channel monitor that utilizes the latest digital design techniques in instrumentation. The monitor uses an 8-bit high speed RISC processor with a highly accurate analog to digital logic. The controller module receives signals from remote gas transmitters, displays the gas concentration, generates 4-20mA analog output for recorders and relay outputs for alarm warning devices.

    Start Up Complete the following procedures for the normal unit operation. 1. Complete the mounting and wiring procedures described in earlier sections. 2. Follow gas sensor & transmitter operation manual for proper wiring of sensors with the monitor. 3. Verify all the wiring connections to be correct and secure. 4.
  • Page 15: Normal Operation And Alarms

    NORMAL OPERATION AND ALARMS Normal Operation During normal operation each control module will display the current gas concentration on the display. If the sensor reading is below alarm level then all the alarm relays and the visual alarm LED indicators on the front panel should be off.
  • Page 16: Alarm Bypass

    Alarm Bypass In the Alarm Bypass mode the monitor will not activate the alarm relays if any of the sensor reading exceeds the programmed alarm level. However, the visual alarm LED indicators will be activated. To put the alarms in bypass mode move the ALARM toggle switch on the front panel of the control module to BYPASS position.
  • Page 17: Programming Alarm Levels

    Programming Alarm Levels 1. Move the toggle switch on the front panel to BYPASS position. 2. Press and hold the pushbutton switch (above the toggle switch) until the Low alarm LED starts flashing. Release the switch. 3. While the LED is flashing the display will show the current alarm level.
