Brand Name: API Absolute Process Instruments
Description
The APD 1500 series accepts a strain gauge, bridge, or load cell input and provides a visual alarm indication and alarm relay contact outputs. 8 amp relay contacts allow the module to directly control high capacity loads.
The input is factory configured to a specific excitation voltage and millivolt input range. The input can be configured as zero-based (i.e., 0 to 20 mV), bipolar (i.e., –30 to +30 mV) for push-pull applications, or offset (i.e., 5 to 33 mV) to electronically compensate for deadweights (tare).
Front-accessible potentiometers are used to adjust each alarm setpoint and deadband.
LoopTracker and Alarm Status LEDs
API exclusive features include a Looptracker LED that varies in intensity with changes in the process input signal. A red/green bicolor alarm status LED (two on the APD 1520 and 1530) visually indicate alarm status. These LEDs provide a quick visual picture of your process at all times.
Output Test / Unlatch
The API exclusive functional test button can be used to verify the alarm and system operation and also provides the additional function of unlatching the alarm when the latching option has been ordered. This feature can be remotely operated. The output test button greatly aids in saving time during initial startup and/or troubleshooting
