2 • DESCRIpTIoN
The PROTECTOR GD 230 V ∼ is a gas detector with an electronic
sensor for natural
gas (CNG, methane) and liquefied/bottled gas (LPG, propane/butane)
designed for use in residential buildings.
If gas escapes, it will trigger a widely audible alarm signal (approx. 85 dB) long before a flammable
mixture of air and gas forms.
It is also possible to relay the alarm signal via a 9 V output (e.g. to the PROTECTOR 9 V smoke detector).
For optimum protection of your home, install the PROTECTOR GD 230 V ∼ in all rooms
in which a gas appliance is used (e.g. kitchen with gas oven, living rooms with gas
heaters, furnace room with gas boiler, gas meter closet).
3 • INSTallaTIoN / aSSEMBlY / CoNNECTIoN
The PROTECTOR GD 230 V ∼ is designed for wall mounting. The mounting height
depends on the type of the gas:
•
Natural gas (CNG, methane)
is lighter than air and collects beneath the ceiling.
The PROTECTOR GD 230 V ∼ needs to be mounted on the wall approx. 30 cm
below ceiling level.
•
Liquefied/bottled gas (LPG, propane/butane)
is heavier than air and collects at floor level.
The PROTECTOR GD 230 V ∼ needs to be mounted on the wall approx. 30 cm above
floor level.
NOTE:
• Do not install in rooms with high ambient humidity or steam (e.g. in
bathrooms or directly above an oven)
• Do not install in the immediate vicinity of gas appliances (e.g. directly
above an oven or heating system)
• Do not install in very dusty or dirty areas
• Install the gas detector mounting plate on the wall
(fig. 1)
or, if more wiring space is
required, on a recessed box
(fig. 1e)
.
• Mount the PROTECTOR GD 230 V ∼ on the mounting plate and push until it clicks
into place
