6.11 Programming K2
The K2 contact output can be programmed for various settings that are chosen by the user.
For Type Z and Ex pz systems, power to the pressurized enclosure can remain on if pressure goes below the
minimum allowed pressure, but an audible and/or visual alarm must be generated to notify the operator of a
problem.
K2 can be used to generate the signal for the alarm when properly configured. Alarm function based on any
pressure point (P1 to P4 is not available when K2 is mapped to K1, purging or bypass. Additionally, the K2/
ALARM LED indication is not an alarm indication when K2 is mapped to these functions.
When K2 is mapped to a function that is not an alarm for loss of safe pressure, the power to the enclosure
must be removed, or an external method of alarming is required.
