Remote Annunciators for Line Isolation Monitors
NFPA 99 2015 Edition (6.3.2.6.3.4) and the NEC 2011 Edition (517.160(B)(1)) both require a Remote Annunciator to be “plainly” or "conspicuously” visible inside the area served when a Line Isolation Monitor (LIM) is installed outside the patient/procedure area.
The Remote Annunciator for Line Isolation Monitors displays the LIM status and notifies if a fault has occurred. Remote Annunciators alarm notifies hospital personnel in the procedure room in the event of a high hazard current and can be silenced.
Model DRA-1V Remote Annunciator
The PG LifeLink Model DRA-1V Remote Annunciator contains similar indication and functionality as found on the front of the SafeDetec LIM. Features include alarm indication as well as real-time THC display, silence and self-test functions.
The DRA-1V is an excellent option for upgrading older, analog Square D Isolated Power Panels. Often the LIM is hidden behind the breaker door and the analog meter is at the top right-hand corner of the panel. The Square D remote can be replaced with a SafeDetec LIM and the DRA-1V remote, bringing the system up to the latest technology.
Model DRA-1 Remote Annunciator
The Model DRA-1 Remote Annunciator contains audible and visual alarm indication along with a silence feature. (Model DRA-1 Remote Annunciator is compatible with the Mark V LIM and the Mark IV LIM.)
