1. Introduction 

Welcome to the user manual for your new Pilot 
Twin-Channel Gas Alarm! This document is 
designed to guide you through the installation, 
operation and initial testing of the device, as well 
provide information on any operational queries 
or troubleshooting issues you may have.  

The Twin Channel Gas Alarm is ideal for small and 
medium sized vessels as it supports two LPG 
sensors. 

This product range provides critical safety 
features against extremely dangerous or deadly 
gases. This responsibility requires maximum 
reliability which is why all our products endure an 
extensive testing procedure before leaving Envin 
Scientific.
