Crowcon Standard Wall Mounting Vortex (with Power Supply and Battery Backup)
Description

These Crowcon Vortex control panels are for monitoring one to twelve gas detectors and three zones may alternatively be configured for smoke/heat detectors. The versatile modular system is available with up to 32 programmable relays. Includes gas level display, battery back-up, internal alarm, one-person calibration feature, RS-485 Modbus communications, event logging, and PC software for configuration and monitoring. Available in a selection of input channels and relay modules.

The mounted vortex is a standalone unit for surface mounting on walls, the display panel shows the fault and alarm levels for all the channels, but the LEDs only light when a hazard or fault is detected. This means the whole system can be checked at a glance. Setting adjustments can be made at the enclosure without the need for additional equipment.

Channels and Display

  • 1 to 12 channels (including 3 for fire) - up to 12 devices can be monitored by reviewing just one control panel, saving time and manpower
  • Each channel has one fault level and three-alarm levels which can be combined in any pattern to trigger up to 32 output relays - flexibility built-in, initially configured to suit your operational needs, then channels/alarms are easily customised by you if requirements change
  • LED display panel lights - faults are easily seen, and the whole system can be checked at a glance

Installation and Maintenance

  • Modbus Compatability - no extensive cabling required; cable connections within the unit are easy
  • Space within units for access to cable terminals
  • Uses industry-standard communication links - simple to integrate into existing control systems
  • Any adjustments are performed electronically - minimal maintenance and no drift from adjustable potentiometers
  • Separate zones can be individually inhibited - you can work on specific areas without affecting the rest of the system
  • Modular construction - replacement parts if required, which plug straight in

Compliance and Reliability

  • Validated to IEC 61508 (SIL 1) - demonstrates system dependability
  • System monitors relay continuously - coil faults are identified immediately without input from you
  • Internal battery pack - power outs are not a problem. Internal battery pack continuously monitored for change levels and connection. The system is operational at all times. Option not available on flameproof versions.
