Introduction
Learn what you need to know about the Honeywell Vertex® SF Continuous Monitor System before
operating.
System Overview
The Honeywell Analytics Vertex SF™ System continuously monitors for toxic gases. It responds to
gases that exceed programmed levels by:
Triggering alarms and opening event windows to warn operators of high or low concentrations
Triggering relays to external devices
Displaying the location, gas type and gas concentration
Storing the alarm information in a database
The Vertex SF System provides fast response to a wide range of gases. Each location may be up to
400 ft (122 m) from the Vertex SF System. The system uses one or more of Honeywell Analytics’
Chemcassette® analyzers, with or without pyrolyzer, to provide a monitoring system tailored to
meet the requirements of the facility.
The Vertex SF System incorporates a range of redundant and protective features for maximum
uptime:
Intelligent analyzer modules allow one to stop monitoring with no effect on the remaining
modules
Power supplies are redundant
The system powers up in the same state as when powered down
Filters, Chemcassettes® and major components in one of the analyzers can be replaced while
the remaining analyzers continue to function.
Operation can be through an LCD touch screen or through a local area network (LAN).
