gramming, as well as some aspects related to the commissioning and mainte-
nance for the control unit Galileo 32.
1.1
DETECTION CONTROL PANEL CHARACTERISTICS
The GALILEO 32 is an advanced multifunction gas detection control panel de-
signed to control and monitor up to 32 SMART 3G detectors connected on a
closed RS 485 serial loop.
Always keeping the main focus on security, the GALILEO 32 control panel has
been developed according to the European standards on functional safety, the
SIL (Safety Integrity Level) requirements (European Standard EN 50402). Re-
dundancy has been implemented in every module being part of the system and
with the correct installation the system comply with the functional safety require-
ments up to SIL 3. On the GALILEO 32 front plate, an high brightness display pro-
vides an ongoing reading of the concentration being measured and, in case of
an alarm, the alarm threshold attained and the respective channel.
The unit comes into a metal cabinet complete with 24Vdc, 5A power supply and
offers the possibility to allocate 2 back-up batteries max. 12V 7 Ah.
An RS232C serial port for connection to a Personal Computer is available, which
permits the remote programming of the control panel with a substantial reduc-
tion in time.
