Gas detector WG-14.Fx/A WG-14.FX/A

Methane detector WG-14.Fx/A – reliable safety in leak detection

The WG-14.Fx/A gas detector is an autonomous device designed for continuous monitoring of methane (CH4) concentration in the air. It is used in places where this gas may potentially accumulate, constituting a key element of the safety system. The device is particularly useful in garages, underground parking lots, vehicle inspection stations, boiler rooms, and rooms with refrigeration equipment.

Functionality and application

WG-14.Fx/A is a conventional detector, which means it should not be used in potentially explosive atmospheres. Its main task is to detect dangerous methane concentrations early and alarm when permissible norms are exceeded. This allows for quick preventive action, minimizing the risk of fire or poisoning.

• Closed garages and underground parking lots: controlling the ventilation system to maintain a safe gas level.
• Vehicle inspection stations: automatic activation of the exhaust system in case of detected elevated exhaust fumes.
• Solid fuel boiler rooms: monitoring the presence of methane generated during fuel combustion.
• Machine rooms with refrigerants: protection against leakage of refrigerants, which can be hazardous to health.
• Cold storage rooms for food products: ensuring safe food storage conditions.

Construction and user features

The WG-14.Fx/A detector is characterized by a compact, one-piece design integrating a gas sensor, control unit, audible alarm, LED indicator light, and 12 V= alarm and contact outputs. A replaceable sensor module ensures easy maintenance and calibration of the device.

• Three alarm thresholds: set during production, allow precise adjustment of the detector's sensitivity to specific working conditions.
• Built-in event history: allows analysis of alarm causes and optimization of system operation (available from the manufacturer).
• Calibration period expiration signal: reminds of the need for regular checking of the detector's correct operation.
• Thermal compensation circuit: ensures stable readings even at variable ambient temperatures.
• NO contact outputs: three separate contact outputs (including one configurable) allow integration of the detector with external alarm or control systems.
• 24 V= power supply: ensures wide compatibility with various power sources.
• Dimensions: compact dimensions (110 x 140 x 55 mm) facilitate mounting in hard-to-reach places.
