Flexible Control System Gas Detection Controller - FCS-8

Product Specification

FCS-8 Flexible Control System?Description
The FCS-8 Flexible Control System is a high performance controller that of ers up to 8 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-8 is designed to accept inputs from digital and/or analog transmitters and/or Peripheral Devices (in various combinations), using Modbus^? RS-485 or 4-20 mA analog input. The FCS-8 is available in two models: the FCS-8-M with Modbus^? RS-485 output or the FCS-8-B with BACnet^? MS/TP output for communicating with a Building Automation System (BAS).

Standard features include, four internal SPDT dry contact relays with field configurable time delays and trigger levels, a full colour LCD resistive touch screen with an LED panel indicating configurable 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 and a water tight audible alarm. The FCS-8 can can be connected to several remote devices such as a remote strobe/horn combo, a Remote Display Module and various LNK Peripheral Devices required to complete the necessary gas detection system.
