The C14 Scan Alarm Receiver is a dedicated central monitoring unit designed for multipoint gas detection in demanding industrial settings. It supports up to 16 analog 4-20 mA inputs from remote gas transmitters, providing 24 VDC power for loop-powered toxic gas detectors or 3-wire combustible gas sensors. The device features a clear two-line alphanumeric LCD that displays each channel in sequence and locks onto any channel in alarm, ensuring immediate visibility of critical events. With two programmable alarm set points per analog input plus a dedicated trouble alarm for each channel, it offers precise and reliable alert management for comprehensive area protection and operational continuity.
This alarm receiver is extensively used across sectors where gas hazards present significant risks to personnel, infrastructure, and processes. In oil and gas operations, it monitors for combustible gases in refining, extraction, and storage zones. Chemical manufacturing plants depend on it for detecting toxic leaks during production and material handling. Industries like pharmaceuticals, water treatment, and general manufacturing utilize it to ensure environmental compliance and safeguard workers. Its capability to integrate with existing detection networks and support communication between up to 32 units via RS-485 makes it suitable for both standalone sites and large, multi-building industrial complexes requiring a scalable, unified safety solution.
The C14 Scan Alarm Receiver delivers substantial value by enhancing operational safety, ensuring regulatory adherence, and minimizing costly downtime. Its proven reliability in 24/7 critical applications is backed by six assignable SPDT alarm relays as standard, expandable to 36 relays for customized alarm configurations. The standard RS-232/485 serial interface allows for straightforward computer setup and automatic system monitoring, which simplifies maintenance and reduces long-term operational expenses. By providing centralized, real-time visibility of potential gas hazards, it helps prevent incidents, protects your workforce, and safeguards physical assets, making it a vital investment for professionals who prioritize dependable safety infrastructure and operational integrity.
