2-Way Wireless Gas
Leak Detector
(Model EL-4762)
Introduction
Electronics Line Ltd's 2-Way Wireless Gas Leak Detector detects
mixtures of air and combustible gases (Natural Gas, Methane,
Propane and Butane).
Upon detecting the presence of gas, the unit emits an alarm and
notifies the control panel.
The main features of your Wireless Gas Leak Detector include the
following:
Integrated transmitter designed for use EL's wireless alarm
systems
Easy to install
Monitoring for Natural Gas, Methane, Propane and Butane in a
continuous manner
Loud alarm (85 dB) when detecting a buildup of Gas
Test button
Self-test
Selecting the installation location
The 2-Way Wireless Gas Leak Detector will function effectively if installed in
the correct location. Consider the following before mounting the gas alarm:
Methane (Natural) Gas: Methane is lighter than air, therefore
the greatest concentration of gas is found right below the
ceiling, and therefore the Wireless Gas Leak Detector should
be installed on the wall, approximately
30 cm (12”)
below the
ceiling.
Butane Gas: Propane and Butane are heavier than air,
therefore the greatest concentration of gas is found right
above the floor level. The Wireless Gas Leak Detector should
therefore be installed about
30cm (12”)
above the floor. Do
not mount in a location where the gas alarm could be
damaged by dirt, liquids, etc.
Note:
Do not install the detector on the ceiling or on the floor.
Install the detector in close proximity to every gas-operated
appliance.
Do not:
•
Install the gas detector directly on any gas appliance.
•
Install the gas detector in sealed or closed compartments or in
an area where a wall or a closed door can obstructs the flow of
gas to the gas alarm.
•
Install the gas detector in locations where fans, open doors,
open windows etc. may prevent gas from reaching the sensor.
•
Install the gas detector in any room where aerosols or
ammonia are used (e.g. bathrooms).
To install the detector:
1. Remove the mounting bracket from your unit according to Fig. 1.

4. Secure the mounting bracket to the wall.
5. Line up the side slot of the bracket and the detector. Push the
detector onto the mounting bracket and fix it (see arrow direction,
Fig. 2). Pull the detector outwards to make sure that it is securely
attached to the mounting bracket.
6. Connect the detector power cable to the wall power outlet.
Registration
The EL-4762 must identify itself to the iConnect 2-Way receiver as
follows
1. Set the system to registration mode.
2. Go to the main menu and select [9]>[1]>[1] (Programming >
Devices > Zones)
3. Select a zone and press '
'
4. Ensure that the detector power cable is plugged into the wall power
outlet. (Wait 3 minutes for the power-on process to complete)
5. Press the
TEST
button for 3 seconds to send a transmission. If the
transmission is successfully received by the system it will play a
confirmation sound. If no confirmation sound is heard, repeat this
step.
6. After the detector is successfully registered the display shows:
Save? Press
to confirm.
