Description

The API 1000 G and API 1020 G are factory configured for
either a DC voltage or current input and provide alarm contact
outputs. Heavy duty relay contacts allow the module to directly
control high capacity loads.
The API 1000 G provides a single setpoint adjustment and
DPDT relay contacts. The normal acting alarm output can
be factory configured for HI or LO operation. Top-accessible
potentiometers are used to adjust the alarm setpoint and
deadband.
The API 1020 G contains two independent setpoints with
two SPDT relay contact outputs. The normal acting alarm
output can be factory configured for HI/HI, HI/LO, LO/HI or
LO/LO operation. Top-accessible potentiometers are used to
adjust each alarm setpoint. Deadband is fixed at 1% of span.
Adjustable deadbands are optional.

LoopTracker and Alarm Status LEDs

API exclusive features include a LoopTracker LED that varies in
intensity with changes in the process input signal.
A red/green bi-color alarm status LED (two on the API 1020
G) visually indicate alarm status. These LEDs provide a quick
visual picture of your process at all times.

Output Test

API's exclusive functional test button can be used to verify the
alarm and system operation. Press the Test button to toggle
the alarm relay(s) to the opposite state. The output test but-
ton greatly aids in saving time during initial startup and/or
troubleshooting.
