Description
The APD 1600 and 1620 accept an AC voltage or milliamp
current input and provide a visual alarm indication and alarm
relay contact outputs.
The input type, range, and alarm types are factory configured.
Front-accessible potentiometers are used to adjust alarm
setpoint and deadband.
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 APD 1620)
visually indicate alarm status.
These LEDs provide a quick visual picture of your process at
all times.
Output Test / Unlatch
API's exclusive Output Test button can be used to verify the
alarm and system operation and also provides the additional
function of unlatching the alarm when the latching option has
been ordered. This feature can be remotely operated.
The output test button greatly aids in saving time during initial
startup and/or troubleshooting.
2 setpoints, 2 SPDT relays
IBA APD 1620 with inverse band alarm. Alarms trip if signal is
between LO and HI trip points.
HT Latching alarm with push button reset
HP Latching alarm with power-off reset. Module power
must be turned off to reset alarms
RA Reverse-acting alarms. Relay coils energized in an alarm
condition. No alarm condition with module power off.
