APPLICATIONS
Gas and Carbon Monoxide Detection
Duomo gas detection products are CE certified to EN50291 (for toxic gases) and EN50194 (for explosive gases). We supply a complete range of sensors and detector controllers designed for many specific applications from domestic to industrial - ATEX certified.
The Duomo BX series (A) and GS series (B) of detector panels interpret signals from upto sixteen remote sensors capable of sensing a variety of gases including;
- Natural Gas or LPG - SGM595 (C)
- Carbon Monoxide - CO100Ar (D)
- Specialist gases - SG895 (E)
- Combined Natural Gas & Carbon Monoxide - CHCO (F)
If concentrations of the target gas exceed predetermined levels an alarm is sounded. The controller also switches off the electrical supply to a gas solenoid valve.
For car park applications fan speed controllers can be interfaced with the detector panel to automatically increase and decrease ventilation as required.
The graphic here is an example boiler room and illustrates what kit would typically be installed.

Be Carbon Monoxide Aware is a new initiative from the Carbon Monoxide Consumer Awareness Alliance (COCAA) aimed at increasing public awareness of the dangers of this poisonous gas.
Carbon Monoxide Be Alarmed! is a similar initiative backed by victims of CO poisoning, professional organisations and energy companies with advice on how to recognise the symptoms and avoid the dangers of CO.
CO Awareness is an organisation that supports the many victims of Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning and Toxic Combustion (TC) poisoning, their families and friends.
The following case study is a timely reminder of the importance of monitoring CO.
