Gasmaster 4 fixed gas panel (Please call for price)
Overview
Gasmaster is a compact, versatile and powerful gas detection control panel that combines simple operation with an extensive array of input and output functions.
Gasmaster provides all the information you need about your gas and fire detectors at a glance. The large multi-lingual display shows gas levels from all detectors simultaneously and enables system adjustment and testing using buttons on the front panel. The Gasmaster gas detector control panel can operate ‘stand-alone’ or interface with any alarm devices and control systems using a selection of outputs.
Large display
All gas levels are displayed simultaneously – enables full systems status check at a glance
Alarm messages can be customised to indicate the name or location of any detector in alarm
The LCD can be set to display in many languages
User-friendly
Menu system is intuitive and easy to use – enables configuration changes to be made easily
All functions, from day-to-day operation to re-calibration, can be carried out from the front panel – routine testing can be performed rapidly
Event log feature – enables system fault and alarm history to be viewed
Versatile input and output features
Provides analogue, relay and Modbus outputs – facilitating communication around the site
Flexibility – Gasmaster can monitor up to four detectors in virtually any combination of gas detectors, fire zones or Environmental Sampling Unit. Software enables re-configuration and event log upload in an instant
Two levels of independent alarm per channel – can be configured to suit site requirements
Remote inhibit and re-set facilities – enables control from any point on your site
Compatible with a 4-20mA or mV pellistor-type gas detector – mV pellistor detectors reduce system purchase and maintenance costs
Modular design
You only need to purchase the required number of input modules – 1,2 and 3-channel systems can be extended later by adding additional modules
