Macurco™ Combustible Gas Detector

GD-6

Detector, Controller and Transducer


Methane, Propane or Hydrogen Gas Detection
The GD-6 is a versatile, easy-to-use device that allows you to select between methane, propane, or hydrogen
gas detection. It provides low-level detection of combustible gas in an easy-to-maintain monitor that is factory
calibrated for simple installation. This low voltage detector provides automatic feedback and fan control that can
help reduce combustible gas concentrations in parking garages, battery rooms, maintenance facilities, and other
locations that require combustible gas detection.
Selectable options include:
• Measurement: Methane (NG), Propane (LP) or Hydrogen (H2)
• Output: Fan relay, Alarm relay and 4-20mA current loop
• Controls: Digital display (0-50% LEL), buzzer, fan delay, fan minimum runtime
Installation
• Mounts on a standard 4” x 4” electrical box
• 5 A SPDT fan relay controls valves, louvers or exhaust fans
• 0.5 A N.O. or N.C alarm relay connects to warning devices or control panels
• 4-20mA current loop - compatible with the Macurco DVP-120 Control Panel
• Factory calibrated
Other Features
• Supervised system design: detector problem will cause the fan & alarm relay to activate
• Optional calibration kit allows the GD-6 to be field tested and calibrated
• ETL Listed to UL 61010-1

Location
A GD-6 is usually located in areas where there is potential for gas leaks; where there are gas appliances, areas
through which gas pipes pass, where batteries are being stored or charged, etc. DO NOT mount the GD-6 in a
corner. DO NOT mount the GD-6 where the normal ambient temperature is below below 0°F or exceeds 125°F
(-18°C or above 52°C). If the target gas is lighter than air; natural gas (Methane) or Hydrogen (H2), mount the
GD-6 high on a wall or column about one foot down from the ceiling. If the target gas is heavier than air; propane
(LP), mount the GD-6 low on a wall or column one foot above the floor. Use the same spacing as for smoke
detectors, 30 foot centers, 900 square feet per detector.
