    Safety Regulations Read this manual carefully before using the SENTRY io. The SENTRY io will perform as designed only if it is used and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Otherwise, it could fail to perform as designed and persons who rely on the SENTRY io for their safety could sustain serious personal injury or death.
  • Page 6: Correct Use

    The SENTRY io is designed to accept standard 4-20 mA analog signal inputs from connected MSA or generic gas detectors and will also accept discrete inputs from contact closure devices such as switches or relay contacts. The system provides discrete relay outputs for use in energizing notification devices such as sounders, strobes, or horns.

    Power Supply The 24 VDC, 10A power supply accepts main AC power. The SENTRY io uses a COSEL power supply (PN: KHNA240F-24) or equivalent - for specifications, please refer to the COSEL product page. The COSEL KHNA240F-24 complies with SELV requirements as per UL 60950-1 and OSHA Class I Div. 1 requirements.

    Analog Inputs The SENTRY io is designed to provide 24 VDC field device power for connected, 2 and 3-wire 4-20 mA signal fixed gas detectors. The wiring termination blocks for connected gas detectors are located in the lower left hand corner of the panel.
  • Page 11: Output Devices Compatibility

    The wiring termination blocks for discrete input device connections are located to the right of the 4-20 mA signal input terminal blocks and utilize a two-tier terminal block. The SENTRY io enables the internal 24 VDC power to be used for the discrete 24 VDC signal inputs.
  • Page 12 The SENTRY io comes pre-wired with all contacts dry except for relays 5-8 (which includes the buzzer on relay 5). To add additional powered relays, you need to connect 0 VDC and 24 VDC to the terminal strip as shown below. Powered contacts are used for things like horn and strobe activation.

    7. Connect the AC power wiring to the #1 AC terminal block (HOT) and #2 AC terminal block (NEUTRAL) input terminals. Make sure the connectors are seated securely. 8. Connect the AC power ground wire to the ground lug so the SENTRY io chassis ground is connected to the earth ground.
  • Page 19 When wiring each node, connect the cable shield to the functional ground point of the RS485 terminal block. In order to avoid ground-loops, do not connect the RS485 functional ground terminal to the Earth of the SENTRY io as it is internally connected to the SENTRY io's functional ground point.
