Model 7500ZA

 

 

 

Setting Range

 

Alarm value: 10-1000 ppm

→ 5 ppm step (initial value: 500 ppm)

Alarm count: 1- 99 times/hr

→ (initial value: 5 times)

Hysteresis : 0-20 % FS

→ (initial value: 0% of full scale)

[% FS] represents the percentage with the CO range regarded as 100%.

Action of Peak Alarm

If the CO concentration exceeds the alarm value, counting will begin. If the number of peaks is over the set times per hour, a peak alarm contact output becomes closed (ON). If it is less than the set times per hour, it is open (OFF). Since 5 peaks /hour is exceeded in the cross- hatched area marked (1) in the above graph, the peak count alarm is turned ON. Since peaks of more than 5 per hour occur at the interval between (1) and (2), the peak count alarm remains ON whereas at (2), peaks are reduced to 4 per hour, and the alarm is turned OFF.

Like the hysteresis of the alarm setting, the hysteresis prevents possible chattering when a measured gas fluctuates about the alarm value.

*The peak alarm counting logic is not performed during the first 10 minutes after the power is turned ON.
