Tunstall 69005/10 Manual 

69005/10 69005/10 69005/10 69005/10 Welcome to the Natural Gas Detector. This guide is for use with the Natural Gas (methane) Detector, Tunstall part number 69005/10. What is the Natural Gas Detector? The Natural Gas Detector has an integrated 869 MHz radio module. The unit is mounted on a wall bracket - with moulded screw holes. The product has been assembled and programmed to simplify installation. all-guides com

We recommend the installation to be carried out by competent personnel as an incorrect detector installation position can reduce the detector’s effectiveness. 1. Decide on the location of the Natural Gas Detector and ensure it meets the guidelines of the manufacturer’s manual found inside the box. i. Methane gas is lighter than air and will tend to rise upwards; in order to maximise the effectiveness of the detection the unit should be placed 30cm from the ceiling. ii. The detector should not be installed close to cooking appliances, sinks, fans and in areas where environmental conditions differ from those recommended and specified in this document. 2. Drill two holes to line up with the key-slot holes in the wall mounting bracket, securely fit two screws and leave the heads of the screws protruding from the wall for the wall plate to fit onto. 3. The Gas detector must be installed by a competent person qualified to carry out electrical work according to current national wiring regulations. 4. The installer should refer to the current edition of the European Standard EN 50244 “Electrical apparatus for the detection of combustible gases in domestic premises – Guide on the selection, installation, use and maintenance.”

switch to allow for future maintenance work. 6. All necessary care should be taken to ensure that the unit cannot be disconnected accidentally. 7. Once connected to the mains the gas detector needs a warm-up period of 3-4 minutes, after which the unit will work. DO NOT REMOVE THE COVER FROM THE NATURAL GAS DETECTOR WHEN THE DETECTOR IS CONNECTED TO MAINS POWER. Pairing the Natural Gas Detector to a Tunstall Lifeline. 1. Place the Lifeline home unit into telecare sensor assign mode by pressing the green cancel button until the unit beeps and/or announces ‘Programming Mode’, then press and hold the green cancel button again until the unit beeps, release the cancel button and the unit will announce ‘Registration Mode’ . 2. Generate a radio transmission from the Natural Gas Detector by placing the magnet (supplied in the box) adjacent to the Detector at the point labelled “MAGNET”. The Lifeline will announce “Gas Detector” to confirm pairing was successful.

Detector has finished its warm-up period; an end-to end test can be performed using the following method: End to end test: 1. To test the detector's correct functioning and to ensure the successful pairing with the Tunstall Lifeline; use a certified mixture of sample gas and by verifying that the Lifeline announces and raises an alarm. Using a gas bottle with maximum concentration of 25% LEL Methane balanced in air and set the gas flow at 0.5 litre/minute max (Speciality Gas UK, www.speciality- gases.com, supplies such gas bottles). DO NOT USE THE GAS OF LIGHTERS TO TEST THE OPERATION OF THE DETECTOR, AS THIS LIGHTER GAS WILL IRRETRIEVABLY DAMAGE THE BUILT IN SENSOR.

Detector. (Note: Natural Gas Detector should be replaced after 4 years of service).
