Gas detector DG-1KL/M flammable gases (simple hydrocarbons), calibrated on request, catalytic sensor, RS-485

Gas Detectors – Reliable Safety in Every Facility

The DG-1KL/M gas detector is an advanced device designed for continuous monitoring of flammable gas (simple hydrocarbons) in a space. It utilizes a catalytic sensor, ensuring high measurement accuracy and a fast response to hazards. The detector is factory calibrated to order, guaranteeing optimal performance in specific conditions. Communication is via an RS-485 interface with the MODBUS RTU protocol, enabling easy integration with monitoring and control systems.

Functionality and Application

The DG-1KL/M detector is a key element of the GAZEX Digital Gas Detection System, providing comprehensive protection against explosion or poisoning. The device finds application in various facilities, such as:

• Industrial plants – where there is a risk of gas leaks during production processes;
• Logistics centers – warehouses and storage facilities where flammable materials are stored;
• Public utility facilities – residential buildings, office buildings, schools, hospitals, where people's safety is a priority;
• Large rooms – production halls, high-bay warehouses, where it is difficult to control the spread of gases.

It is important to remember that DG/M detectors are intended for use in areas not classified as hazardous areas.

Construction and User Features

The DG-1KL/M detector is distinguished by its solid construction and a range of features that facilitate installation, operation and maintenance:

• Replaceable sensor module: Allows for quick replacement of a damaged sensor or adaptation of the detector to another type of gas without the need to replace the entire device. This translates to lower operating costs and reduced downtime.
• Thermal compensation circuit: Ensures measurement stability regardless of changes in ambient temperature.
• Alarm history: Facilitates analysis of the causes of alarms and prevention of their recurrence.
• Removable screwless terminals: Allow for convenient and quick connection of power and signal cables (possibility of connecting two FTP cables).
• Splash-proof housing (IP44): Protects the device from moisture and dust, ensuring reliable operation even in harsh environmental conditions.
• Two cable glands: Facilitate connecting subsequent detectors in a network (through).
• Selective LED optical signaling: Allows for quick identification of the detector's status (alarm, failure).
• Configuration via the configuration software „DETnet View”, available on the manufacturer's website.
• Calibration in an accredited laboratory: All GAZEX detectors are calibrated in their own Calibrating Laboratory operating in accordance with the PN-EN ISO/IEC 17025 standard (PCA accreditation No. AP150), which guarantees measurement accuracy and compliance with applicable regulations.

The DG-1KL/M detector is an investment in safety and peace of mind – both for installers responsible for the correct installation of the gas detection system, and for end-users benefiting from the protected facility.
