3.6.2.2 Gas pod interlocks
Refer to drawing: 94-SE81B26657 (PC2003 gas pod loom).
To enable process gases, the RF interlock chain must be complete. The gas pod interlock
is shown in Fig 3-21.

See NOTE.
NOTE: The function of the signal is to supply
24Vdc power to the digital outputs of
the CAN unit. The interlock continues
through idendical boards (where fitted)
which drive gases 5 - 8 and 9 - 12.

Gases are designated as one of three types:
Gas type A: Typically oxidising gases (e.g. oxygen)
Gas type B: Typically fuel gases (e.g. hydrogen)
Gas type X: Gases normally miscible with most other gas types.
If ANY gas Type A is enabled, then ALL gas Type B lines are disabled.
Table 3-3: Incompatible gases
The gas pod has a facility to prevent incompatible gases from being enabled
simultaneously, using soldered links.
