MZ-RD – Multi-Zone Remote Display
The MZ-RD should be centrally located in the facility (preferably outside of the mechanical room) and
should be easily accessible for visual monitoring and servicing. This is the “split architecture design” for
safety of the operator.
Dirt, grease, and oils can adversely affect the operation of the MZ-RD. The MZ-RD should be installed
out of direct sunlight in a clean, dry area that is not subject to temperature or humidity extremes.
Installation in a mechanical room is acceptable provided reasonable environmental conditions exist. If
there is a question, consider installing the unit outside of the mechanical room in a clean
er area of the
facility.
The MZ-RD can be located up to 4500 feet (1372 m) from the furthest gas monitor. The MZ-RD is the
main machine interface by which you can program the gas monitor, acknowledge alarms, and observe
conditions inside the mechanical room. Note that there are two additional alarm relay contacts in the
MZ-RD that can be programmed to alarm with “leak, spill, evacuate, fault or monitor on”.
2.4. Mounting Instructions
