Safeguard Alarm Controller
16 Channel Modbus ® Master Display and Alarm Monitor / Controller
The Net Safety SafeGuard Alarm Controller is designed as a cost-effective
mini-system controller alternative to expensive PLC systems.
The SafeGuard comes standard with a centralized, easy-to-read
LCD providing simultaneous status on 16 channel inputs as well
as several expansion options including Mimic Display capabilities
and HMI software packages. The SafeGuard can be equipped for
any application, indoors or out, with your choice of a basic
wallmount, a weather-proof fiberglass enclosure or rackpanel
mounting.
The SafeGuard is easy to configure and user friendly. Measurement
ranges in engineering units, adjustable alarm set-points, dual
serial interfaces and many other features combine to allow the
SafeGuard to satisfy the needs of many demanding applications.
It is widely used for centralizing the display and alarm processing
functions in critical flame and gas detection applications.
Analog inputs may be accepted and conditioned via sensor specific
analog input cards. An RS-485 Modbus slave port allows up to
128 SafeGuard's to be multidropped onto a single data highway
for interrogation by another Modbus master. SafeGuard's may
also be cascaded by connecting one unit's master port to another's
slave port. SafeGuard options such as discrete alarm relays
per channel or 4-20mA I/O are added by connecting appropriate
8 channel boards (2 required for more than 8 channels) to the
economical I2C expansion bus. Familiar "telephone style"
cables and connectors interface to this bus. Versatile, expandable,
and a wide range of system configuration options - satisfying
the most demanding user applications.
Features
8 channel display mode and boards allows for economical configuration
for smaller systems.
Dual Modbus RS-485 serial ports for simultaneous master / slave
operation.
Alarm Zoning feature available - target specific zones at the
same time or entire areas. Relay Acknowledge feature allows
silencing of external audible devices during alarm.
Graphic LCD readout displays monitored data as trends, bar graphs
and engineering units.
Standard A SPDT common alarm relays for HORN, HIGH, WARN &
FAULT. Optional discrete channel alarm relays also available.
Alarm event printer interface, direct sensor inputs, 4-20mA
outputs, discrete alarm relays and others supported via an I2C
expansion bus.
Cal Mode offers pushbutton zero /span calibration.
Authorization Mode allows locking of critical configuration
variables.
Magnetic keypad available for nonintrusive operation in potentially
hazardous locations.
NEMA 4X enclosure wallmount, basic wallmount and rackmount options
available.
