Specifications

Series 1500 System

 

 

Power Consumption: 120 VAC (8 watts), 12 or 24 VDC (2.5 or 7.2 watts).

Sensor Inputs: 32 N.O. and/or N.C., such as Murphy SWICHGAGE® instru- ments. Inputs are factory-programmed as a Class A, B, C or P for shutdown, alarm, or control function (specify).

Opto-Isolated Input: 12-120 VDC or 24-120 VAC, the opto-isolated input is typically used as a run input, magnetic pickup and ignition.

Outputs: 4-SPDT relays, 4 A, 1/20 HP, 125/250 VAC/3A, 30 VDC.

NOTE: An approved isolation barrier must be used between the sensor switch and input terminals if the sensor output comes from any energy stor- ing device such as a relay or transistor. (See LCDT-ISB Barrier, at right).

Timers: 12 adjustable timers for:

 

• Two Start-up lockouts

• Test

• Prelube

• Postlube

• Load delay

• Idle

• Crank

• Rest

• Run delay

• Process delay

• Ignition ground

 

Time Delay: elay before ignition ground or electric motor stop, for up to 59 seconds.

Terminal Block: Rail mount DIN type; 32 positions (screw type).

Backup Battery: Rechargeable during normal operation. Provides up to 5 hours backup time.

Tachometer Sensing: From either CD Ignition or Magnetic Pickup.

Operating Temperatures: 32 to 122°F (0 to 50°C).

Storage Temperatures: -4 to 158°F (-20 to 70°C).

Case: ABS plastic, 1/4 DIN (90 x 90 mm).

Interface Output: RS232 communication port.

Alphanumeric Display: 2 lines, each line with 16 characters (32 total).

Laboratory Approvals: CSA and NRTL/C for Cl. I, Div. 1, Grps. C & D.

Power Supply Enclosure: Explosion-proof, Class I, Division 1. Intrinsically safe barrier built into power supply, 120 VAC and 12 or 24 VDC power supply barrier with dry contact relay functions such as:

• Fuel valve

• Alarm

• Shutdown

• Ignition

• Control (Pre/Postlube)

• Compressor Loading

• Engine Cranking

 

LCDT-ISB Intrisically Safe Barrier:

External barrier explosion-proof design for hazardous locations, according to NEC requirements for Class 1, Division 1 Group D areas. The LCDT-ISB accepts Normally Open sensor inputs (2 inputs per barrier). For Normally Closed sensors, an intrinsically safe (approved) barrier is required.
