INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

The GAS ALARM GX-C3 and the sensor may be installed only in dry, interior rooms and
must be correctly placed according to the type of gas to ensure faultless operation of the
alarm system.
It is essential to observe the prescribed sensor mounting height!
Placing of the sensor for
carbon monoxide (CO) / smoke:
Mount the external sensor as close as possible to the
point of combustion or flue/chimney to be monitored
but some 15-30 cm below the ceiling as the escaping
gas will be heated and will initially rise.
The sensor may not be used in the following positions:
• places where the sensor is shielded from escaping gas (e.g. behind curtains or in
cupboards)
• directly above hearths or points of combustion or over a wash basin or sink
• next to a door, windows, ventilator, fan, air conditioning unit etc.
• in areas where dust or dirt can prevent the sensor from working
• in areas at risk of explosion
START-UP
The GAS ALARM GX-C3 is simply plugged into a 230V/50Hz socket. The LED indicator
(Function) will light up yellow. The sensor of the monitoring system requires a warm-up time
of 3-5 minutes to become fully operational. The LED indicator (Function) will then light green
and the GAS ALARM GX-C3 is operational.
NOTE: various transport conditions (lengthy storage / humidity) can lead to an alarm state
being triggered immediately after the warm-up time (LED flashes red). Disconnect the unit
briefly from the supply and start the warm-up process again. You may need to repeat this
procedure up to three times.
