OVERVIEW 

 
Pem-Tech model PT950-B is a microprocessor based single channel 
monitor that utilizes the latest digital design techniques in 
instrumentation. The monitor uses an 8-bit high speed RISC processor 
with a highly accurate analog to digital logic.  The controller module 

receives signals from remote gas transmitters, displays the gas 
concentration, generates 4-20mA analog output for recorders and relay 
outputs for alarm warning devices.  Each control module uses 24VDC 
power and supplies power to the remote gas transmitter connected. 
 
Standard features are: 
 

 

Displays current gas concentration on two (2)  Digit Bright LED 

display  ( 3 digits display for Oxygen deficiency ) 

 

Provides a 4-20mA output. 

 

Low, High, & High-High fully programmable alarm relay contacts. 

 

Alarms programmable via switches on the front panel 

 

Sensor Malfunction relay contact. 

 

Visual alarm indicators on the front panel. 

 

Alarm RESET and BYPASS switch. 

 

RS485 Serial Communication for Remote data display 

 

Master Alarm Reset on the main rack assembly to Reset Alarms. 

 

Programmable Relays 

 

Each control module has three (3) programmable relays for Low, High, 
and High-High alarms.  The alarm relay set points can be programmed 
via pushbutton switch provided on the front panel.  On the main 
termination board of PT900-12 rack system alarm terminals are provided 
for each of the control module.  A common terminal is also provided for 
sensor malfunction (or fault).  This terminal is common to the Fail relays 
on all the control modules in the system. The terminal can, therefore, be 
used as dry contact for a local audible alarm.  In addition jumper blocks 

are also provided to common all the relays on the control modules in 
order to use an auxiliary relays.    
For further details refer to section on Programming alarm Relays later in 
this manual.
