Relay output for additional alarm
Application
For visual and audible alarms in the event of oil layers on water. Especially suitable for catchment basins, floods and inspection ducts.
Description
Alarm unit in wall mounting housing for the detection of oil layers on water. ÖAWD consists of a control unit with visual/audible alarm, Test/Unlock buttons as well as a relay output. ÖAWD is based on the conductivity principle. The floating probe SWS is used for detection. If an oil layer (of at least 2 mm) is detected, the alarm unit triggers a visual alarm and stores the alarm condition. Once the cause of the alarm condition has been removed, press the Unlock button to reset ÖAWD. The visual alarm is deactivated. The Test key allows you to simulate an alarm condition in order to perform a function test. The voltage-free relay contact is provided for connection of additional signalling equipment (such as ZAG 01), actuators (pumps, valves), additional alarm units or event reporting systems. The alarm units are suitable for panel mounting with a mounting frame. A sealing kit (IP 54) is available for rough application conditions. ÖAWD-8 features a delay of 8 s which helps to avoid false alarms in applications with turbulent surfaces.
