Critical - Model FCS -128-Channel System Controller
The FCS Controller provides simultaneous display and alarm functions for up 128 gas detection devices, depending on the model. Arranged in groups of 8 channels to allow economical configuration of systems. All controllers come with Modbus Master/Slave RS-485 ports and 4 five amp alarm relays. This easy-to-configure, user friendly controller is ideal for centralizing an entire fleet of independent gas detectors.
The FCS Flexible Control System is a sophisticated, high performance system controller that offers up to 128 gas channel configurations for monitoring toxic, combustible or refrigerant gases with versatile control functionality for non-hazardous, non-explosion rated, commercial and light industrial applications. The FCS is designed to accept inputs from digital and/or analog transmitters and/or Peripheral Devices (in various combinations), using Modbus RTU RS-485 or 4-20 mA analog input.
The FCS Flexible Control system is available in two models: the FCS-M with Modbus RTU RS-485 output or the FCS-B with BACnet MS/TP RS-485 output for communicating with a Building Automation System (BAS).
Standard features include, 4 internal SPDT dry contact relays, a full colour LCD resistive touch screen with an LED panel indicating channel alarm status, relay status and fault conditions, an extensive menu system with password protection, enhanced logic control, priorities / zoning capabilities, a USB port for firmware upgrades, data logging and a door-mounted audible alarm.
Optional value added features include, analog inputs and/or analog outputs, a top mounted strobe, a locking door, manual shut off switch, and a water tight audible alarm.
The FCS can be configured to comply with California Title-24 Building Energy Efficiency Standards. Specification details need to be given at time of order and additional settings can be implemented in the field as required.
