SECTION 1 – PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
1.1 GENERAL SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The basic function of the Model LC1000 Alarm console is to provide both audible and visual
warning alarms at the occurrence of high, low, or leak conditions: typically via float switches, or
any tank mounted sensing device that transmits an alarm condition by opening or closing dry
switch contacts. The LC1000 may also be used as a non-intrinsically safe remote alarm panel for
any system that provides a dry contact relay output to represent a specific set of conditions. The
console is powered by 120 VAC and provides 1 to 4 input channels each with a corresponding
light. Each input consists of a pair of intrinsically safe terminals for wiring to field mounted
switches. The intrinsically safe inputs allow mounting the switches in explosion hazard
environments without requiring additional protective barrier components in the wiring runs. For
every input, there is a single dry contact relay output that can be used to signal a remote alarm
device or control an external electrical device, such as a solenoid valve, up to 3A @ 120 VAC.
