Annunciator comes with hardwired inputs
Omniflex has equipped the Annunciator range with both hardwired inputs and Modbus serial Interface boards.
This tiny self-contained unit provides eight points of alarm annunciation without compromising the features that have made this product range so popular.
By providing a range of integral power supply options from 12V DC to 240V AC, this product is designed to find application in local electrical panels and motor control centres, where it may be easily applied without the need for any other external components.
Where users were in the past forced to make up such functions using "shoebox" PLCs wired to separate indicator lights, this product offers superior performance at a reduced cost (available from stock at GBP 193.00) without the hidden engineering and maintenance overhead.
The product accepts eight potential-free contact inputs and provides a single control relay contact out which may be used to drive an external audible device or remote alarm indicator.
The unit's 30 alarm sequences and four relay functions, as well as normally open/closed input contact selection are all simply set by means of switches on the side of the unit, making this product easily configurable by electrical technicians without electronics or programming knowledge.
