We have a comercial kitchen with a Ansul sytem connected to a electric gas valve with a manual reset relay. We have installed a backup generator to keep the kitchen and other areas of the building powered up durring a power loss.
Our problem now is that everytime the power goes out and or the auto transfer switch transfers the manual resest relay trips and turns off the gas. This causes the kitchen pilots to need relit several times for evey power outage.
I have installed a UPS to power the gas valve and relay. The problem I'm having is the UPS dosn't always tranfer quickly enough for the relay. This is a very good UPS providing pure signwave output.
If I could just make the realay delay for 1 second I think the problem would go away. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks in advance!
