Gas detector DG-1KL4/MR methane, methane calibration 10/30% LEL, catalytic sensor, RS-485, 2 relay outputs

Methane gas detector – reliable protection and precise measurement

This gas detector is designed for continuous monitoring of methane concentration in various environments, from industrial plants to public facilities. It utilizes proven catalytic sensor technology, ensuring a quick and reliable response to hazards. The device is a key element of the Digital Gas Detection System from GAZEX, enabling the construction of a comprehensive monitoring system.

Functionality and application

The DG-1KL4/MR detector is designed to operate in large rooms where there is a risk of methane emissions. Its main task is to detect dangerous gas concentrations and immediately notify of an alarm using a built-in optical signal and transmit information to the central supervisory module via the RS-485 interface with the MODBUS RTU protocol. This allows for a quick response to potential hazards and risk minimization.

The detector's design allows for easy replacement of the sensor module, which greatly simplifies the maintenance, calibration process and reduces operating costs. The replaceable sensor is compatible with DG/F and DG/P series, increasing system flexibility.

Key features and benefits

• Precise measurement: Catalytic sensor provides accurate detection of methane in the calibration range of 10/30 %LEL.
• RS-485 communication: Enables integration with monitoring and control systems via a standard industrial MODBUS RTU interface.
• Two relay outputs: Allow connection of external alarm devices or automation systems.
• Built-in optical signaling: Provides immediate information about exceeding permissible gas concentrations.
• Replaceable sensor module: Facilitates maintenance, calibration and reduces operating costs.
• Semi-automatic addressing: Simplifies the configuration of the detector network without the need to open the housing.
• Screwless terminals: Facilitate and speed up the installation of wires.
• Configuration with DETnet View software: Allows easy adaptation of the detector settings to specific application needs (available on the manufacturer's website).
• Calibration in an accredited laboratory: All detectors are factory calibrated in accordance with the PN-EN ISO/IEC 17025 standard (PCA accreditation no. AP150), which guarantees their accuracy and reliability of measurements.

The DG-1KL4/MR detector is a solid solution for professionals looking for a reliable methane detection system, as well as for end-users who value safety and measurement accuracy. It should be remembered that the device is intended for use in places not classified as zones hazardous with explosive gases, vapors or dusts.
