TELSEC CEV Panel

Replaces Sierra Monitor, Oldcastle, Rotundo, IDEC plus mechanical & ladder logic relay panels.

The TELSEC® CEV Panel provides an integrated solution to monitor and control all environmental and equipment alarming in remote CEVs for new construction and retrofit applications The TELSEC CEV Panel provides a direct replacement for any existing electromechanical or electronic controls in remote CEVs

For medium-sized facilities: CEV-CEMH-WIC-HUT-CUE-CEC-Fiber Hub

Quest Controls’ proprietary TELSEC® CEV Panel delivers an integrated, high-performance solution for new construction and retrofit applications, enabling complete monitoring and control of environmental conditions and equipment alarming in remote underground Controlled Environmental Vaults (CEVs). The TELSEC CEV Panel serves as a direct, modern replacement for outdated electromechanical or electronic control systems currently deployed in these remote CEVs, streamlining operations and enhancing reliability:

  • Performs all control, monitoring, and communication functions in a single product.

  • Provides critical visibility to the remote CEV via 2-way communications, which enables remote interrogation of the sites from any alarm and/or maintenance center.

  • Provides power relays for controlling air conditioners, vent fans, and heaters.

  • Replaces older generation thermostats, humidistats, lead/lag controllers, mechanical bypass timers, and other electromechanical components.

TELSEC CEV Panel Features

  • Ethernet connectivity with support for SNMP v1, v2c, v3 & secure Web server (HTTPS).
  • Alarms notification via TL1 over nailed up Telnet session, SNMP traps/informs & email.
  • Intelligent lead/lag control of multiple A/C Units.
  • Automatic switching to -48VDC backup power upon failure of 120VAC main power.
  • Color touchscreen display for status monitoring and alarm display.
  • Intrusion Monitoring.
  • Non-volatile FLASH memory prevents program loss & stores program upgrades.
  • Monitors all environmental alarms such as: temperature, humidity, fire/smoke, toxic and combustible gas, high water, halon discharge.
  • Supports Modbus RTU for monitoring ATS, generators, etc.
  • Expandable for additional monitoring and control.
  • Enhances troubleshooting with a searchable event history log.
