cGas Detector for Indoor Public Spaces - Installation Manual
screws. A large entry point is provided in back of the enclosure. Refer to Section
6.4 Enclosure Mounting Components. Care should be taken to ensure that the
vents of the cGas Detector are not obstructed in order to maximize the sensor’s
exposure to the environment being monitored.
6.3.1 Wet Environment Considerations
The cGas Detector for public spaces is not designed for use in wet
environments. The sensor venting will allow water to enter the enclosure.
6.3.2 EMI and RF Interference Considerations
All electronic devices are susceptible to EMI (Electromagnetic Interference)
and RFI (Radio Frequency Interference). Our detectors have been designed
to reduce the effects of these interferences and we meet CSA FCC and CE
requirements for these type of devices. However there are still circumstances
and levels of interference that may cause our equipment to respond to these
interferences and cause them to react as if there has been gas detected.
There are some installation procedures that will reduce the likelihood of getting
faulty readings:
1. Locate the detectors and controllers out of the way from normal foot
traffi
c and high energy equipment.
2. Inform operators and technical staff working in the surrounding area
to be aware of these possible conditions and that two way radios,
Bluetooth enabled devices, cell phones and other electrical equipment
may interfere with the response of the gas detectors.
6.3.3 Mounting Height (Sensor Dependent)
The gas detector needs to be mounted where it will best detect the target gas.
Some applications may require some adjustments, but generally speaking, the
mounting height will depend on the density of the target gas relative to air.
