AGDS-MC features 

Installation Instructions 

 
The AGDS-MC 

v2

 is a multi channel gas detection system designed for use in boiler houses. Six low voltage 

detectors can be connected ( 16 with a power pack) for the detection of natural gas, LPG, or carbon 
monoxide, carbon dioxide and oxygen depletion. 
 
In the event of a high alarm from one of the detectors, the system will isolate a connected control valve. Low 
alarm indication is also given. 
 
Even with the system switched off It can still be used to monitor for carbon monoxide and dioxide via its 0-
10v output and BMS relays. Should there be an issue from a solid fuel appliance it can raise an alarm or 
switch ventilation on via a relay. 

Before commencing installation please familiarise yourself to the equipment by reading the comprehensive 
installation instructions. If in doubt then please call 0161 233 0600. Out of hours please call 07894 684080 or 
07843 355163. 
 

 

It is a statutory requirement that this safety system is installed and commissioned 

to the satisfaction of the manufacturer. 

 

 

A commissioning certificate must be issued to the end user along with instructions for the operation of the 
equipment. 
 
As the Manufacturer, Medem UK should commission this safety system whereupon a commissioning report 
will be forwarded to the installing agent who should provide a copy to the end user.  
At the point of our commissioning an individual serial number will be attached to the system along with a 24 
help line number. Photos and all relevant information for the installation will then be stored on the Medem 
site database to be accessed in the event of a call on the 24 hour help line. The warranty period for the pan-
el and sender unit will then be extended to Ten years.
