DETECTION AND VENTILATION

CONTROL PANEL (DVP-120)

• The 6 and 12 series gas detectors can be used as a stand-alone setup 
• This family of detectors is offered in low voltage or line voltage and can  
   tie directly into many different pieces of equipment using one of the two    
   dry contact relays or the 4-20mA output
• Customizable settings are done from each detector

• The DVP-120 has the capacity to handle up to 12 of the 6 series detectors  
   via a 4-wire homerun from each detector 
• The DVP-120 has three 10 amp form relays along with two 24VDC  

    

   outputs
• Any combination of gases within the 6-series will work with the DVP-120
