The front panel houses a graphical display with associated keypad that shows simultaneously the current reading, sensor type and status (i.e. Alarm, Fault) for each channel and, by use of the menu system, can be used to programme various operational features such as the alarm levels and relay operating modes.
Many lab gases pose safety risks. There is a fire risk from gases such as methane, butane and propane. There is an asphyxiation risk from nitrogen (gas and liquid), argon and helium. Other gases can be toxic.
The installation of gas detection such as the 3000SI series is commonplace and where the sensors are not fed into a building management system a local display and control panel such as the LC Commercial is ideal.
The LC Commercial control panel can be housed in the laboratory or in a central control area. It is easily wall mounted and simple to operate.
