2Gas Detection Specifications
| Feature | Specification |
|---|
| Detected Gas | Natural gas, primarily methane, according to the SG30 product specification |
| Detection Type | Combustible gas leakage detection |
| Alarm Concentration | 8% LEL ± 2% LEL |
| LEL Meaning | Lower Explosive Limit, used as a reference for combustible gas concentration alarms |
| Detection Purpose | Provides an early warning when detected combustible gas reaches the specified alarm threshold |
| Detection Method | Integrated combustible gas sensing element |
| Monitoring | Continuous monitoring while the sensor is correctly powered and operating |
| Gas Safety Coverage | Designed for combustible gas leak detection and not as a replacement for all other fire, smoke or carbon monoxide detection devices |
Important safety note: This device is intended for combustible gas detection. It should not be treated as a substitute for a dedicated smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector or other safety equipment where those devices are required.
9Installation & Placement
| Location | Recommended Use |
|---|
| Residential Kitchen | Monitor an area where compatible natural gas equipment or piping is installed |
| Villa Kitchen | Provide smart combustible gas leak monitoring near the appropriate gas installation area |
| Apartment Kitchen | Provide an additional gas safety alert device when correctly positioned |
| Restaurant Kitchen | Suitable as part of a properly planned gas safety and smart monitoring system |
| Commercial Kitchen | Can provide combustible gas monitoring where the product specifications suit the installation requirements |
| Near Gas Source | Install according to the recommended positioning requirements for the specific gas being monitored |
| Ventilated Position | Keep the sensing area free from obstructions that could block gas from reaching the sensor |
| Power Position | Install where the required AC power supply is safely available |
| Gateway Coverage | Place within reliable Zigbee network coverage when smart connectivity is required |
Placement note: Installation height and position can differ depending on the gas being monitored because gases can behave differently in air. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and applicable local gas safety requirements. Do not place the sensor where airflow, cabinets, walls or other obstructions prevent gas from reaching the sensing area.
?Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Smart Combustible Gas Sensor?
It is an indoor smart safety sensor designed to detect combustible gas leakage and activate a local sound and light alarm. When connected to a compatible Zigbee smart home system, it can also support connected monitoring and automation.
What brand is this Smart Combustible Gas Sensor?
The SG Automations product page lists the brand as Orvibo.
What model is the Orvibo Smart Combustible Gas Sensor?
The available manufacturer product specification identifies the model as SG30.
What gas does the SG30 detect?
The available SG30 specification lists natural gas, primarily methane, as the detection gas. Confirm compatibility with the exact gas used at your property before installation.
What is the gas alarm concentration?
The specified alarm concentration is 8% LEL ± 2% LEL.
What does LEL mean?
LEL means Lower Explosive Limit. It is a measurement reference used for combustible gas concentration and gas alarm thresholds.
Does the Smart Combustible Gas Sensor have an audible alarm?
Yes. The available specification lists a sound and light alarm with an audible level of more than 72dB at approximately 1 meter.
Does the sensor provide a visual alarm?
Yes. The specified alarm mode includes both sound and light warning.
Does this gas sensor use Zigbee?
Yes. The listed networking method is Zigbee.
Do I need a Zigbee gateway?
A compatible Zigbee gateway or smart home controller may be required for connected smart features, remote monitoring and automation.
What is the Zigbee wireless range?
The specified wireless networking distance is up to approximately 80 meters in an open environment. Actual indoor range depends on walls, interference and building materials.
Can I receive smart notifications?
Connected alerts can be supported when the sensor is paired with a compatible Zigbee gateway and smart home platform with notification features enabled.
Can the sensor trigger smart home automation?
Yes. A compatible Zigbee smart home system can use the sensor's alarm event as a trigger for supported smart scenes and automation.
Can the gas sensor automatically shut off a gas valve?
The sensor may be integrated into an automation with a separately compatible smart gas valve controller, but compatibility and proper professional installation must be confirmed before using such a setup.
What voltage does the Smart Combustible Gas Sensor use?
The available SG30 specification lists an operating voltage range of AC110V to AC220V.
What is the operating temperature?
The specified operating temperature range is -10°C to +55°C.
What humidity level is supported?
The specified maximum ambient humidity is 95% RH.
Can the Smart Combustible Gas Sensor be used outdoors?
It is specified for indoor operation. Do not install it outdoors unless the exact installation is specifically approved and suitably protected.
Where should I install the gas sensor?
Install it in a suitable indoor location according to the type of gas being monitored, with unobstructed airflow and appropriate distance from the gas source. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and applicable safety requirements.
Can I install it in a Dubai villa kitchen?
Yes, it can be suitable for a Dubai villa kitchen when the gas type matches the sensor specification and the installation follows the manufacturer's guidance and applicable UAE safety requirements.
Does this sensor detect smoke?
It is intended for combustible gas detection. Use a dedicated compatible smoke detector for smoke detection rather than relying on a combustible gas sensor for that purpose.
Does this sensor detect carbon monoxide?
The available product specification does not list carbon monoxide as the primary detection gas. A dedicated carbon monoxide detector should be used where carbon monoxide monitoring is required.
Should I test the Smart Combustible Gas Sensor regularly?
Yes. Regular testing and inspection are recommended to help confirm that the sensor, alarm and smart connectivity are operating correctly.
