Description

The ELK-941 is a versatile relay module designed to separate steady and pulsing voltage from a single alarm output, directing it into two independent relay outputs. This makes it an excellent solution for controlling two-channel long-range radios, cellular transmitters, sirens, strobe lights, or bells using the alarm outputs commonly found in security control panels.

When a steady voltage input is detected, Relay 1 activates—ideal for burglary alarms. When a pulsing voltage input is detected, Relay 2 activates—typically used for fire alarms. The module includes a 3 to 4-second verification delay before activation to reduce false alarms, with the option to bypass this delay for applications that require immediate response. Additionally, Relay 2 can be configured to pulse in a temporal coded bell pattern that complies with ANSI Standard S3.41 for fire alarm signaling.

Designed for flexibility and reliability, the ELK-941 supports positive or negative low current triggering, features LED status indicators, and provides a low current output for alerting during the delay period. It comes housed in a durable surface-mount ABS enclosure with a snap-on cover, ensuring easy installation and long-lasting performance.

Main Functions
  • Splits signals: Turns one alarm output into two separate relay channels.
  • Burglary vs. Fire: A steady voltage triggers Relay 1 for burglary. A pulsing voltage triggers Relay 2 for fire.
  • Radio and cellular: Works well with two-channel long-range radios and cellular transmitters.
  • False alarm delay: Uses a 3 to 4-second delay before turning on the relays. You can turn off this delay if you need an
    • Voltage: Runs on 12 Volts DC.
    • Current: Uses up to 96mA when both relays are on.
    • Size: Measures 4.4 inches by 3 inches by 1.15 inches.
    • Design: Comes in a surface-mount plastic box with a snap-on cover.
