Gas detector WG-1R5.Fx WG-1R5.FX

Gas Detectors – Reliable Safety in Any Environment

The WG-1R5.Fx gas detector is an advanced device combining detection, signaling, and control functions. Designed for autonomous detection of hazardous concentrations of propane-butane (LPG) in air, it is suitable for use in both industrial facilities and enclosed spaces requiring monitoring. Its design enables rapid response to threats, ensuring the safety of people and property.

Construction and Operating Principle

The WG-1R5.Fx features a compact, single-piece construction integrating an infrared optical sensor, control unit, audible and visual alarm, and power supply. The replaceable MS-1R5/N sensor module allows for easy calibration and adaptation to specific operating conditions. The device offers three programmable alarm thresholds (10/30/50% LEL), enabling precise configuration of the response to detected gas. Built-in thermal compensation ensures stable measurements even under varying ambient temperatures.

Applications and User Benefits

The WG-1R5.Fx detector performs reliably across a wide range of applications:

• Enclosed garages and underground parking: controls ventilation systems to maintain safe gas levels.
• Solid fuel boiler rooms: monitors for potential gas leaks from installations.
• Rooms with air conditioning and refrigeration units: protects against accumulation of refrigerant gases.
• Refrigerated storage rooms for food products: ensures safe storage conditions.
• Machinery rooms using refrigerants: monitors concentrations of potentially hazardous substances.

Thanks to its versatility, this detector is an ideal solution for both professional installers and end-users seeking a reliable gas detection system. Simple installation, intuitive operation, and the ability to perform tests without opening the housing are additional advantages of this device.

Functionality and Technical Specifications

The device offers multiple features to enhance usability:

• Three isolated NO relay outputs, including one configurable (NO/NC) for various applications (alarm, fault).
• 12 V DC / 100 mA alarm output for connecting external audible or visual alarms (e.g., SL-32).
• Built-in event history facilitates analysis of alarm causes and optimization of system performance.
• Multicolor LED visual indicator and audible alarm signal device status and gas detection.
• IP44 splash-proof sensor cover provides protection against moisture and dust (in recommended mounting position).
• Option to add the mechanical protective cover AR-1, enhancing resistance to mechanical damage.

The detector is powered by 230 V~ AC, and its compact dimensions (110 x 140 x 55 mm) allow for easy installation in various locations.
