General warnings

-Using the unit without observing the manufacturer's instructions may alter the appliance's safety requirements. 

-  Detectors  should  be  installed  in  a  place  protected  from  vibrations,  water  and  corrosive  gases,  where  the  ambient 

temperature does not exceed the value indicated in the technical data. 

-  Detectors  supervise  a  point  and  not  an  area.  If  the  gas  leak  does  not  reach  the  sensor,  or  the  level  of 

concentration  in  that  point  does  not  reach  the  alarm  values,  no  alarm  will  be  activated.  If  perimeter 
supervision is required, several sensors should be installed around that area.

Working conditions:

-Keep the detector work environment free of chemical agents (such as solvent, paints, alcohol, acetone, silicone, etc.), and 

free of engine fumes or gases from fermentations (bread, pizza) or ripening (breathing) of fruits.

-The detector should generally be installed in an area of potential concentration/accumulation of gas, in low positions (due 

to the greater relative density, in relation to air, of the gases subject to detection).

Carefully perforate the rear entry so as not 
to damage the electronic board. 

This option involves changing from 
IP68 to IP40.

Warning

The 

AKO-57624

 refrigerant gas detector may only be used in locations that have not been classified with risk of 

explosion. 
The detector is set at a value lower than 25% of the LEL (Lower explosion limit) of the refrigerant (see table). In the 

event that the concentration of the refrigerant leak reaches the setting value, the detector activates an alarm and must 
activate a forced ventilation system (*). 
(*) The forced ventilation system must be suitably proportioned to ensure that the  concentration of refrigerant in the event 
of a leak is below the LEL.
Reference regulations: EN 378
Applicable local regulations: Compliance must be ensured
