Integral relays contained in the Edwards Monitorrs operate a series of interlocks which, in the event of a failure in a vacuum section or part of the pumping equipment, automatically isolate it from the rest of the system. Thus protection from malfunction is achieved and at the same time a central annunciator board enables faults to be located. The interlocks also provide correct sequential operation equipment.
