Beacon 800 8 Channel Wall Mount Gas Detection Controller Overview
The Beacon 800 is a versatile, low-cost fixed-system gas detection controller for one to eight gas detection points. The 2 large digital displays have backlighting and easily identify both the gas type and the gas concentration for all 8 channels simultaneously. The Beacon 800 is housed in a NEMA 4X-rated case for a weather-tight seal.
The Beacon 800 is microprocessor-controlled and can accept up to 8 separate 4-20 mA sensor transmitters, which can be either 2- or 3-wire. The Beacon 800 can be powered by either 24 VDC or 240 VAC. It is simple to operate and comes complete with a wall-mount installation kit.
The case design complies with the new lockout/tagout standard and can be fully secured. An external reset switch allows alarms to be silenced from outside the controller housing. The bottom-mounted siring hubs allow for easy wiring.
With 10 amp-rated relays, the Beacon 800 can be wired directly to a variety of devices like alarm horns, buzzers or lights. This eliminates the need for costly external relays from the controller to devices.
