• The FAULT relay will normally be energized and the contact will be closed during
normal operation of the detector. The contact will be open at Fault condition or low
voltage.
• The relay outputs are not available in the intrinsically safe model 20/20MI-XX-X-C.
• 4-20mA Current Output:
The 4-20mA is isolated sink option.
The maximum permitted load resistor is 600Ohm.

Communication Network:
The detector is equipped with an RS-485 communication link that can be
used in installations with computerized controllers. The communications
protocol is Modbus compatible.
This protocol is a standard and widely used.
It enables continuous communication between a single standard
Modbus controller (Master device) and a serial Network of up to 247
detectors.
It enables connection between different types of Spectrex detectors or
other Modbus devices to the same Network.
