Gas Detection Equipment

We stock Gas Detection Equipment

Merlin GDP2 Gas Detection Two Zone Control Panel. This control panel processes information from remotely mounted gas detectors and or heat sensors where a 230v output to a slam shut solenoid valve is interrupted on detection of high levels of the gas or gases being monitored. It can also provide a 24VDC output to audible or visual alarms.

Gas Detectors

A range of Gas Detectors are available for use with Merlin GDP2 Gas Detection Control panel include, Merlin LPG Gas Detector, Merlin NG Gas Detector, Merlin Carbon Monoxide Gas Detector.

Heat Detector Fusible Link

This detector is used with gas detection systems. When temperatures of over 72 degrees Celsius are reached, this thermal link will create an open circuit and the control panel will then close the gas valve, cutting off the gas supply.

Emergency Stop Button

This switch may be used to deactivate a normally closed 230v slam shut solenoid valve in the incoming gas supply line.

Sounder Beacon

This Audible (sounder) and visual (Beacon) alarm may be used with a gas detection system. A suitable Gas Detection control panel will provide a 24VDC output to this component on detection of high levels of the gas or gases being monitored.

Propane regulators safety Excess Flow Valve (EFV)

If you suspect a fault in your regulator, firstly check that the safety excess flow valve has not activated, by connecting the regulator to a cylinder, opening the cylinder valve with a finger partially over the outlet to stimulate normal gas flow.

The following is an extract from the instruction manual of our propane regulators.

‘This Regulator is equipped with a safety excess flow valve as required by Irish standards. The excess flow valve will activate, shutting off gas flow in the event of an excess flow of gas outside of normal operating conditions, for example where a hose is leaking excessively or disconnected. Please note that the excess flow valve may activate when gas is admitted by opening the cylinder valve unless the regulator is connected to installation pipework and an appliance.

Closing the cylinder valve and disconnecting the regulator will reset the excess flow valve and normal operation will resume once the reason for the excess of flow has been rectified.’
