Introduction
This user manual will cover the 12 and 24v version of both the Pilot Gas
Monitoring System and the Twin Channel Gas Alarm.
The Pilot range of gas monitoring alarms are important and cost effective
items of safety equipment wherever LPG may be present.
However good a gas installation may be, there is always a chance that a
potentially lethal leak may occur. Vapours present on boats such as
butane, propane and petrol vapour are heavier than air. Even a small leak
can build up to dangerous proportions in the bilges of a boat.
Gas Monitoring System
The Gas Monitoring System (GMS) is designed to work with two LPG
sensors. This allows a greater coverage of gas detection for your boat.
The GMS is also supplied with a solenoid valve which is installed in your
gas supply. Your gas supply will then be controlled by the GMS which has
a button to open/close the valve. In the event of an alarm, the GMS will
automatically close the valve to switch off the gas supply.
Twin Channel Gas Alarm
The Twin Channel Gas Alarm is supplied with two sensors. It has all of the
features of the Gas Monitoring System, however, is not compatible with
the solenoid gas valve.
A Gas Valve Controller may be purchased as an add-on to convert a Twin
Channel Gas Alarm into a Gas Monitoring System.
