AMOS 550 Natural Gas Detector

AMOS 550 Natural Gas Detector

UK's best Natural Gas Detection and Protection for Home User Households

Overview:
Natural gas is one of the safest forms of energy in use today, Its fitted as standard to all homes in the UK  however it is possible to cause problems through:
• Mistakes such as forgetting to light a gas ring
• Natural causes like a pilot light blowing out
• Faults in old equipment

This becomes a bigger problem where there are confused, elderly or infirm people who may be less aware of what is going on around them.
In the worst case, leaking gas can build up to dangerous levels which can result in explosions.

The Amos 550 Natural Gas Detector (with optional valve) provides two key functions
• It detects leaks long before the gas reaches unsafe levels,
• It actively prevents danger by shutting off the gas supply to the appliance

Where can the detector be used?
The detector is specially designed for all household situations. In particular where appliances may be left unattended or there
is a risk of gas flames blowing out or being forgotten to be lit. It is mainly used for gas cookers but also can be used to protect fires
and other gas appliances.

How it works:
A simple gas detector (similar in size and operation to a smoke detector) is sited above the gas appliance. When gas leaks happen they are detected well before levels reach recommended safety limits.
When a leak is detected a red warning light comes on and an optional alarm sounds. Remote alarms can also be triggered.
An optional cut off valve can be connected into the gas supply feeding the appliance. With this valve, when a leak is detected, the gas supply to the appliance is automatically switched off, making the situation safe.
When the gas has dispersed the gas can be reconnected either automatically, when a button is pushed or only when a key is inserted. This last option allows only selected people to reconnect the gas.
