No testing with an external test lamp is required. DESCRIPTION The evolution continues with the new X9800 IR Flame OUTPUTS Detector. The X9800 meets the most stringent requirements worldwide with advanced detection...
Table 1—Detector Status Conditions Indicated by Current Level The X9800 signals a fault condition when less than half of the detection range remains. This is indicated by the Current Level Detector Status Fault relay and is evident by the amber color of the LED (±0.5 mA)

X9800. However, system bypass is always recommended, since the material being welded may be contaminated with organic substances (paint, oil, etc.) that will burn and possibly trigger the X9800. ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING The X9800 should not be located within 3 feet of artificial lights.
FACTORS INHIBITING DETECTOR RESPONSE IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES WARNING Windows Do not open the detector assembly in a hazardous area when power is applied. The detector contains Glass and Plexiglas windows significantly attenuate limited serviceable components and should never radiation and must not be located between the detector be opened.
Refer to Figure 2 and ensure that the o i plate will be the hazardous area. This will minimize the possibility oriented as shown when the X9800 is mounted and of false alarms caused by activities outside the area sighted. This will ensure proper operation of the o i requiring protection.
A minimum input with each drain. voltage of 18 vdc must be present at the X9800. Conduit raceways should be inclined so that water will The use of shielded cable is required to protect against flow to low points for drainage and will not collect inside interference caused by EMI and RFI.
