Carbon monoxide gas detector SATEL DG-1 CO wired CO detection self-diagnostics range -10-55°C

DG-1 CO - microprocessor-based carbon monoxide detector

DG-1 CO is a microprocessor-based carbon monoxide detector designed to detect the exceedance of a dangerous concentration of carbon monoxide at a specific time. The device can operate as an autonomous detection and signaling detector or cooperate with an alarm system.

• Designed for rooms with a risk of carbon monoxide (boiler rooms, garages, rooms with fireplaces and gas stoves).
• Digital gas detection algorithm to increase the effectiveness of detecting the threat.
• Built-in optical (red LED) and acoustic signaling of exceeding the threshold concentration.
• Self-diagnostic function monitoring supply voltage and correct operation of the gas sensor.
• Low current consumption for economical expLoatation.

Application and principle of operation

The DG-1 CO detector is recommended for installation in rooms where there is a risk of carbon monoxide emissions, such as boiler rooms, rooms with fireplaces, stoves and gas stoves, and garages. The device detects the exceedance of dangerous concentrations of carbon monoxide within a certain period of time, which allows for early warning of users of the threat of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Due to the nature of carbon monoxide, it is recommended to install the detector at a height of about 1.5 meters above the floor. The applied digital detection algorithm and temperature compensation ensure correct operation of the detector in a wide range of ambient temperatures and reduce the risk of false alarms.

Signaling functions and cooperation with alarm system

The DG-1 CO is equipped with a built-in buzzer and a red LED, so it can serve as an autonomous detection and signaling device. Optical and acoustic signaling of exceeding the threshold concentration of carbon monoxide increases the safety of users through unambiguous information about the threat.

The detector is also adapted for cooperation with alarm systems, which allows integration of gas protection with other elements of the burglary and assault signaling system. A self-diagnostic function continuously monitors the status of the power supply voltage and the correctness of the gas sensor's operation, and a built-in tamper contact allows detection of attempts to tamper with the device.
