Technical specifications

Safety warnings

• When the product is powered and working, its housing can heat up.
• Unplug the gas sensor when renovating the room in which it is installed.
• Do not spray aerosols near the sensor.
• The semiconductor has a lifespan of up to 5 years. Please replace it after this period.
• Through use, grease and dust could be deposited on the housing of the gas sensor, which affects the detection sensitivity. We recommend that you periodically and carefully clean the housing of the sensor so that water does not get inside the device.
• The sensor detects methane gas (CH4), it does not detect carbon monoxide (CO), smoke or other gases.

Installation

Methane gas is lighter than air, therefore, install the gas sensor at a distance of 0.3 m – 1 m below the ceiling and at a distance of 1.5 m from the gas source.
Do not install the gas sensor near fans, windows or bathrooms.

Sensor testing

• The purpose of self-testing is to identify if the LEDs, the voice prompt and the buzzer are working correctly.
• Press the “Push to test” button on the device. The light ring will light up alternately in green, yellow and red, the buzzer will ring 3 times, and the voice prompter will announce “Self testing now”.
• If you have connected a solenoid valve (not included), press the test button for 3 seconds to close the solenoid valve. The voice prompter will announce the status of the solenoid valve.

Operation

• Insert the gas sensor into a 230V power outlet.
• The voice prompter will accompany you throughout the use and configuration of the sensor.
• Priming the sensor takes approx. 3 minutes. During priming, the light ring on the front panel will alternately light up in green, yellow and red. Warning: do not press the Test button during sensor priming!
• After the 3 minutes of priming, the light ring will remain lit in green. Now the sensor is in the detection mode.
• When the concentration of methane gas in the air exceeds the alarm level, the red light ring will flash (2 times/sec.), the voice prompter will announce “Attention, gas is leaking” and the buzzer will sound. Unplug the gas sensor to  exit the alarm mode.
• In case of alarm, turn off the main gas source, immediately open the windows and doors, do not turn on any electrical device or light or devices that can generate sparks, identify where the gas loss occurs. Call a specialized institution if necessary.
• In case of sensor error, the light ring will light up in yellow, the voice prompter will announce “Sensor failure” and the buzzer will sound. Unplug the gas sensor to exit the alarm mode and call a service center to repair the device.

• The LED blinks often: connecting to the network in progress. The device is in the pairing mode.
• LED off: device connected to the network.

Status LED indicator

• The ring lights up alternately in green, yellow and red: sensor priming in progress.
• The ring is green: the device is in gas leak detection mode.
• The red ring blinks: the sensor has detected gas leaks above the alarm limit.
• The ring is yellow: sensor error.
• The ring lights up alternately in green, yellow and red: the device is in test mode.

troubleshooting

1. The device remains in sensor priming mode. Possible causes: the device has not been used for a long time or the test button was pressed during the priming phase.
   Solutions: Leave the device powered for 24 hours, then check it again.

2. The yellow light ring is lit and the buzzer sounds.
   Cause: The gas sensor is faulty.
   Solution: call a specialized service center.
