Model PT920 Eight (8) Channels

Fiberglass, Stainless Steel or Explosion Proof Enclosures

Model PT920-8 Series is a modular designed Monitor-Controller that provides up to eight (8) channels of continuous gas detection. Control modules in a card cage assembly are front accessible with independent alarm status LED indicators, alarm Reset and Acknowledge switches. Modules interface to PemTech's toxic and combustible gas sensors & transmitters. Additionally each module has two digit LED display and 3 levels of independent alarm levels. Alarm levels are fully programmable via switches on the front panel. One of the safety features is a flashing digital display when the control module is in alarm bypass mode. The flashing display is an indication to the personnel in the control room about the alarm bypass status. An RS-485 serial communication port for the interface to Mimic or Repeater panel or to a client PLC or DCS system.
