Smart gas detector and solenoid valve

Foreword

The gas detector from the PNI Safe House Smart Gas 300 WiFi package accurately detects natural gases such as methane, propane, butane, and ethane, and gaseous hydrocarbons such as propylene and butylene.
The PNI Safe House Smart Gas 300 kit consists of a gas detector and a 3/4-inch solenoid valve.

• Open the application, create an account and log in.
• Add your device by clicking the + icon in the upper right corner of the screen or by clicking the Add device button (this button only appears when you do not have any devices added to the application).
• Select the Sensors option on the left side of the screen.
• From the list of displayed devices, select Sensor (Wi-Fi).
• Select the WiFi network to which you want to connect the detector and enter the password. Click Next.
• Using a needle, press the pairing button on the right side of the gas detector for 5 seconds. The green light will flash. The detector is now in pairing mode.
• Check the Confirm the indicator is blinking rapidly option.
• The application will start scanning the nearby devices.
• When your detector has been identified, the red LED will light up briefly, after which the green LED will remain lit.
• Click the Done button to complete the addition of the gas detector to the application.

In case of an alarm, you will receive a notification on your mobile phone.
The application allows you to share the device with other users, create intelligent automation with other devices compatible with Tuya, trigger a test alarm and rename the detector.

Gas detector installation instructions

» First identify whether the gas to be detected is heavier or lighter than air. An example of a gas heavier than air: is LPG. Gases lighter than air: natural gas. Decide the installation height of the detector according to the weight of the detected gas:

• If the gas is heavier than air, install the gas detector at 0.3 – 1.0 m height from the floor, and up to 1.5 m away from the gas source.
• If the gas is lighter than air, install the gas detector at 0.3 – 1.0 m down from the ceiling, and up to 1.5 m away from the gas source.

» Power the gas detector to a 230V source. A short beep will be heard immediately.
» For the next 180 seconds (sensor priming period), the 3 LEDs (red, yellow, and green) will light alternately.
» After this priming time, the green LED will remain lit. The detector is now in normal operating condition.
» In the event of an alarm, the red LED will often flash accompanied by a continuous sound. If the detector is connected to a solenoid valve, it will send an electrical pulse to it. The solenoid valve will shut off the gas flow. To interrupt the alarm, unplug the detector or wait until the concentration of the gas that triggered the alarm decreases (see Safety warnings, page 9).
» In case of error, the yellow LED will remain constantly lit. Remove and reinsert the detector into the outlet. If the error persists, call a specialist service center.
Instructions for installing and connecting the solenoid valve

• The solenoid valve must only be installed by qualified personnel.
• The solenoid valve must be installed after the main internal gas valve.
• The solenoid valve must be installed in the direction of the gas flow, marked on the solenoid valve. The coil must not be mounted face down. The solenoid valve can be installed horizontally or vertically.
• The solenoid control wires must be connected correctly. The white thread is positive and the black thread is negative. An incorrect connection can lead to a short circuit.
• Reverse polarity and incorrect voltage can damage the solenoid valve.
• During maintenance work on the gas pipe, such as cleaning with pressure the pipe, the solenoid valve must be removed to avoid damage.
• During pressure tests, the solenoid valve must be opened.
• It is recommended to install the solenoid valve together with the gas sensor in the package.

Instructions for using a solenoid valve
The solenoid valve can be operated for closing in two ways:

1. An electrical pulse of 1 second (9 – 12V)
2. By pressing the red button (you must first remove the protective plastic cover).

After this operation, the solenoid valve remains closed.
Note: The protective cover must remain in place during the use of the solenoid valve because it has a protective role against accidental actuation.
To unlock the solenoid valve, meaning to allow the gas to flow, pull the red button vertically upwards. The solenoid valve will remain open.

Safety recommendations in case of alarm

• Open the windows or doors immediately.

• Do not turn on lights or any other electrical equipment.

• Do not use anything that could cause a fire (lighter, match).

• Call the emergency number 112.

• If possible, leave the house or stay as close as possible to the windows or open doors.

• After removing the cause of the alarm, call a specialist to identify the problem that triggered the alarm.
  Note: Never ignore an alarm!

• To interrupt the alarm sound, you can unplug the detector or wait for its automatic reset which will be after the concentration of the gas that triggered the alarm has decreased.

Safety warnings

• Do not hit the detector or shake it. The sensor inside may become faulty.
• This sensor does not detect carbon monoxide (CO).
• Observe the recommended supply voltages: 230V for the detector, and 9-12V (impulse) for the solenoid valve.
• Keep the detector clean. Do not use chemicals to clean it, which could irreparably damage the sensor inside.
• Check the correct operation of the sensor once every 6 months.
• Do not use near the detector hair spray, room spray, paints, aerosol diffusers, etc.
