The GDS-95 Alarm Station and Repeater in an integral part of the GDS Corp wire- less gas detection system, providing com- mon alarm relays and range-enhancing RF repeater capability in a single device.

Able to monitor up to sixteen remote GASMAX gas monitors, the GDS-95 features four common alarm relays (A1, A2, A3 and FAULT) that reflect the status of the remote devices in an “OR” configuration. In addition, the GDS-95 includes a real-time clock and event log that records the time and date of all alarm activation and deactivation events. The four internal SPDT relays are rated at 5A, sufficient to power a local strobe light or audible horn. The status and % full scale reading for any received GASMAX monitor are available via the magnetic keypad-driven, user friendly interface.

If environmental conditions are such that a GASMAX signal cannot reliably reach the designated controller / receiver due to distance or obstructions, the GDS-95 can be programmed to receive and retransmit GASMAX wireless messsages on a channel-by-channel basis. Transmit power is adjustable from 10mW to 1.0 watt for 900Mhz and is fixed at 100mW (ERIP) with a 3dB antenna for 2.4 Ghz.

Although most systems require the more sophisticated alarming capability found in the GDS Corp C1 Protector or C2 Quad Protector Controller / Receivers, the GDS-95 can be used as the network alarm monitor / RF server in a stand-alone configuration. In this case, the alarm levels are programmed into each remote GASMAX monitor.

The GDS-95 requires an external source of 10-30VDC and is suitable for 12V solar power applications. Options include local or remote strobe lights, horns and direc- tional and omni-directional antennas.
