4.1.4.2 Activation of acoustic alarm devices
Appropriate configuration of relay outputs makes it possible to control operation of acoustic alarm devices
where the devices are activated if the third threshold for the monitored substance is exceeded and
deactivated after the concentration drops below the third threshold.
It is also possible to deactivate the acoustic alarm devices for a specific time – see illustration 6. The
deactivation time is 10 minutes.
