The positioning of the probe is a factor of crucial importance for the correct functioning of gas detection.
In order to obtain the maximum results from an appliance and minimize the probabilities of false alarms, we
recommend to follow this diagram and to keep in mind the following general rules.
The remote probe must be located at different heights, according to the type of gas.
These heights are:
- 160 cm from the lowest point of the floor Light medium
gas volatile
- The probe should not be placed near the appliances to be controlled (boilers, burners, industrial kitchens, etc.) but
on the opposite wall.
- The probe should not be affected by smoke, vapour, etc. as they could distort their measurement. It must
be placed away from sources of heat, suction fans, ventilation fans.
