Beacon 3200 32 Channel Gas Detection Controller Overview
The all-new Beacon 3200 Gas Detection Controller is a versatile, advanced, fixed-system wall-mount controller for up to 32 gas-detection points. It can control up to 32 separate gas detection sensors. Sensor types can be direct-connect, 4-20 mA (2- or 3-wire), or Modbus transmitters. The Beacon 3200 can be powered by either 115 VAC, 220 VAC, or 24 VDC. A battery backup option is available and is trickle-charged by the Beacon 3200. It is simple to operate and comes complete with a wall-mount installation kit.
The large 7” colour LCD touchscreen can access control and maintenance functions as well as display all 32 channels. The Beacon 3200 is housed in a NEMA 4X-rated case for a weather-tight seal. This case design complies with lockout/tagout standards and can be fully secured. An external reset switch allows alarms to be silenced from outside the controller housing. Nine bottom-wiring hubs make wiring easy.
With an Ethernet port, the Beacon 3200 can output all channel data, including gas readings and alarm stats, via Modbus TCP/IP. This allows users to monitor the readings from a distance. RKI offers the industry’s widest selection of standard and toxic gas detection sensors, which can be utilised with the Beacon 3200, providing gas monitoring protection for almost any application.
