Section 1. Overview
1.1. General Information
The MGS is a state-of-the-art fixed gas detector which can detect a wide range
of different gases. The gas sensors can be used on a stand-alone basis or
integrated into Controls or Building Management Systems (BMS).
The MGS can be used:
•
in new buildings/areas that require continuous monitoring with high
tech gas sensor transmitters.
•
to add gas detection solutions to an existing system.
Typical detection applications include the detection of:
•
refrigerant gases
•
combustible gases
•
toxic gases and/or volatile organic compounds.
The MGS Controller is an optional device used to remotely monitor up to six
MGS devices. For more information, refer to the MGS Controller manual (P/N
1000-0694).
