States & Outputs
The FS24XPlus™ Flame detector communicates status using a variety of output methods, including
the LED, 4-20 mA current loop, Relays, RS-485 Modbus, and HART® EDD over 4-20mA current loop.
Test Lamps
The Honeywell® TL-1055 and TL-2055 test lamps are compatible with the FS24XPlus™ flame
detectors. Note that the test lamps will alarm the detector, so we recommend inhibiting the safety
system before testing.
