2 Functional Overview Supplied in a compact and strong moulded polycarbonate housing, this high-intensity LED visual alarm has an optional 85 db audible sounder. The alarm can be fitted directly to many Trolex sensor/ transmitters using the terminals inside the sensor housing, or can be supplied fitted directly to a junction box. Choice of input signal; contact state or analogue. 4 to 20 ma or 0.4 to 2 V analogue input signal compatibility, with user adjustable alarm trigger setpoint, can be configured for under or over alarm. Certified intrinsically safe for use in Group I hazardous areas, for use with sensors and monitoring systems in hazardous areas. Versions available with visual alarm only.

5 Setup Type of Input Signal A 4 to 20 ma Analogue input 0.4 to 2 V Analogue input 5 V State input Contact State input OFF OFF ON ON Alarm Setpoint Mode B Analogue input Analogue input Voltage free contacts Alarm on Rising signal OFF Alarm on Falling signal ON Alarm on High level OFF Alarm on Low level ON Alarm on contacts Closing ON Alarm on contacts Opening ON Adjusting the Setpoint The alarm setpoint can be configured by adjusting the Setpoint potentiometer. By default the audio/visual alarm is configured with an alarm level of 50% of full scale. Connect an approved test instrument configured to measure 0 to 2 V to the Test Point. Power up the audio visual alarm, refer to the Connection diagrams on page 4 if necessary. The output voltage from the test point is linear and proportional to the alarm level, 0.4 V equals 0% of full scale and 2.0 V equals 100% of full scale. Each voltage increase of V equals an increase of 1% of full scale. By default the audio/visual alarm is configured with an alarm level of 50% of full scale, ie. 1.2 V. With the audio/visual alarm positioned as above, turn the potentiometer clockwise increases the alarm setpoint or turn it anti-clockwise decreases the alarm setpoint. Use a small screwdriver turn the potentiometer and set the alarm setpoint to the desired level. TX6831-DS-EN-01 Page 5 of 8
