Gas detector DG-1R5/N propane-butane, 10/30% LEL, IR sensor

Propane-butane gas detector – reliable safety

The DG-1R5/N gas detector is a device designed for continuous monitoring of propane and butane concentrations in the air. It utilizes an infrared (IR) sensor, ensuring high precision and reliability of measurements in the range of 10-30% of the Lower Explosive Limit (LEL). The detector is an ideal solution for both gas system installers and end-users who care about safety in homes, garages, or industrial facilities.

Features and applications

Detectors from the DG/F series, to which the DG-1R5/N model belongs, are designed for operation in enclosed spaces and industrial environments. Their main task is to detect dangerous concentrations of explosive, toxic gases, or oxygen. The device has two programmable alarm thresholds, allowing adjustment of sensitivity to specific conditions and needs. It is important to remember that these detectors have a standard construction and cannot be used in explosion-hazardous areas.

The DG-1R5/N detector finds application in:

• Homes and apartments with gas installations
• Garages and workshops
• Industrial facilities (e.g., restaurant kitchens, laboratories)
• Warehouses with flammable materials
• Gas boiler rooms

Advantages of the DG-1R5/N detector

• High measurement accuracy: The IR sensor ensures accurate detection of propane and butane.
• Two-stage alarm: Possibility of setting two alarm thresholds for better adaptation to working conditions.
• Replaceable sensor module: Facilitates calibration, repair, and future change of detection type – reduces operating costs.
• Optical signaling: Built-in LEDs indicate the detector's operating status.
• Splash-proof housing: Provides protection against moisture and dirt (IP44 in the recommended mounting position).
• Modular design: Allows easy connection with various control modules (e.g., MD-1.A/T, MDP-1 PLUS).
• Calibration: All GAZEX detectors are calibrated in their own laboratory accredited according to PN-EN ISO/IEC 17025.
• Resistance to temporary concentration spikes: The sensor is resistant to short-term exceedances of permissible gas concentration levels.

The DG-1R5/N detector is an investment in safety that helps avoid serious consequences related to gas leaks. Its reliability and ease of use make it an ideal choice for both professionals and home users.
