SKVA-01-1.E Single-Channel System

The SKVA-01-1.E System is a stationary type, single-channel continuous gas detector designed to measure the concentration of the measured substance in the working area air in real time, display current values, signal about exceeding two pre-set thresholds, as well to control secondary devices: executive elements of ventilation systems, sound alarm, and light alarm.

  • Description
  • Specifications

The system consists of two units: a transducer and the Power Alarm Unit (PAU). The transducer generates an analogue signal proportional to the concentration of the measured component (linear or stepwise depending on the transducer type) and transmits it to the PAU via a communication line. The PAU processes the signal from the transducer and converts it into digital indicators of the concentration displayed on the screen.

Depending on the measured concentration, the PAU includes a built-in light alarm (a green ‘NORMA’, red ‘THRESHOLD’ LEDs), a buzzer, and control relays according to the pre-set algorithm. The control circuits of the secondary devices are connected to the control relays terminals.

The initial state of the relay (ON or OFF) is determined by jumpers on the board. The PAU is of two versions: an explosion-proof one (E) and general industrial one (O). In the explosion-proof design, the power supply of the transducer is carried out through an intrinsically safe circuit. The PAU has an RS-485 output. The output is designed to transfer data to the upper-level systems. The PAU is assembled based on a single-chip micro-controller. It is designed to operate with transducers manufactured for the SKVA-01, SKVA-01M Gas Detecting Systems. The thresholds and the appearance of the front panel are determined by the transducer type, which is connected to the PAU, and these are shown in the Table. The thresholds are unregulated.
