cGas Detector for Indoor Public Spaces - Installation Manual
6.5.6 Wiring the Relay Smart Board (Option -RLY)
The cGas Detector can be ordered with Option -RLY, an SPDT dry contact relay
rated 30 volts, 2 amps max. The relay components are connected to a circuit
board that plugs into one of the plug & play smart sensor sockets. The system
does not provide any power from the relay terminal. A dry contact relay operate
like a switch to simply activate (switch on) or de-activate (switch off) equipment
to be controlled, such as fan starters.
The cGas Detector is designed to be fail-safe, any equipment to be controlled
by the system relays should be wired to the “NC” (Normally closed) and “COM”
(Common) terminals. With this wiring, the connection will be open under
normal, low gas concentration conditions. When the gas concentration rises to
the confi gured alarm point or if there is a power failure, the connection relay will
close. The relay coils are normally energized in a non-alarm state for failsafe
operation.
