Description
The API 1600 G and API 1620 G are factory configured for an
AC voltage or current input and provide alarm contact outputs.
Heavy duty relay contacts allow the module to directly control
high capacity loads.
The API 1600 G provides a single setpoint adjustment and
DPDT relay contacts. The alarm output is normal acting
and can be factory configured for HI or LO operation. Top-
accessible potentiometers are used to adjust the alarm setpoint
and deadband.
The API 1620 G contains two independent setpoints with two
SPDT relay contact outputs. The alarm outputs are normal
acting can be factory or user configured for HI/HI, HI/LO, LO/HI
or LO/LO operation. Top-accessible potentiometers are used to
adjust each alarm setpoint. Deadband is fixed at 1% of span.
Adjustable deadbands are optional.
LoopTracker and Alarm Status LEDs
API exclusive features include a LoopTracker LED that varies in
intensity with changes in the input signal.
A red/green bi-color alarm status LED (two on the API 1620
G) visually indicate alarm status. These LEDs provide a quick
visual picture of your process at all times.
Output Test
API’s exclusive functional test button can be used to verify the
alarm and system operation. Press the Test button to toggle
the alarm relay(s) to the opposite state. The output test but-
ton greatly aids in saving time during initial startup and/or
troubleshooting.
