Gas detector DG-1KL/N for flammable gases (simple hydrocarbons), calibration on site, catalytic sensor

Gas Detectors – Reliable Safety in Any Environment

The DG-1KL/N gas detector is an advanced device designed to detect the presence of flammable gases (simple hydrocarbons) in industrial and enclosed spaces. Equipped with a catalytic sensor and optional custom calibration, it ensures precise measurement and rapid response in case of exceeding permissible limits. This detector is a critical component of safety systems, protecting against fire and explosion hazards.

Design and Application

The DG-1KL/N belongs to the category of standard-design detectors, meaning it is not suitable for use in hazardous zones classified for explosive gases, vapors, or dust. It is compatible with various control modules, including MD-1.A/T, MD-1, MD-2, MD-4, MDP-1.A/T, MDP-1 PLUS, MDP-4, MDP-8, and MDP-16. The device is widely used across a broad range of industrial facilities, warehouses, boiler rooms, and other areas requiring monitoring of flammable gas presence.

Key Features and Benefits

• Replaceable Sensor Module: Enables quick and easy replacement of a damaged sensor or adaptation to detect other gas types, reducing operational costs and minimizing downtime.
• Custom Calibration: Allows precise tuning of the detector to specific operating conditions and application requirements.
• Optical Signaling: Built-in optical indicators provide real-time status updates and alert users when alarm thresholds are exceeded.
• Splash-Proof Housing: Protects against moisture and contamination (IP44 in recommended mounting position), enhancing device durability.
• High Measurement Accuracy: The catalytic sensor guarantees precise detection of flammable gases, ensuring effective protection against hazards.
• Compliance with Standards: All GAZEX detectors are calibrated in our own Accredited Calibration Laboratory operating in accordance with PN-EN ISO/IEC 17025 (Accreditation No. PCA AP150), confirming their high quality and measurement reliability.
• Modularity: Simplifies design and installation of gas detection systems through easy connections and no need for on-site calibration.

Technical Specifications – What You Need to Know

The DG-1KL/N detector features two two-state (threshold) outputs and built-in optical signaling. Power is supplied from an external system. The device is designed to integrate with control modules that enable connection to alarm and process control systems. The standard measurement range for this model is 0 ÷ 100% LEL (Lower Explosive Limit).

The detector has two two-state (threshold) outputs and built-in optical signaling. Power is supplied from an external system.

Regular calibration of the detector is essential – the recommended interval is 6 months for electrochemical sensor models (though no specific interval is provided for the DG-1KL/N with catalytic sensor). Regular calibration ensures reliable measurements and long-term proper operation of the device.
