Re: Gas leak sensor recommendation

Hi Paul,

I've found this - http://www.amos.uk.com/valvetech.htm
- searching for
volt-free

They do sensors for LPG (650) as well as natural gas (550)

Unsure if the requirement for 240v would be a pain?

An alternative would be -

http://snsnorthern.com/product/lpg-detector/

This would work off 7-30v and has a volt-free contacts so can be powered
from and also signal the comfort panel.

I hope this helps.

All the best

Richard
