Definitions

  • the invention relates to a gas warning device with a Gas sensor, an encoder and a decoder.
  • a gas warning device of this type (DE 32 44 878 A1) is a Flammable gas sensor, a measurement conversion device, a transmission line and a test facility of the transmitting measurement signal provided, the measurement signal Error is checked, if necessary a warning signal is generated and otherwise the concentration of flammable gases is displayed becomes. There are extensive device facilities for these functions necessary.
  • the invention has for its object a gas explosion protection device to create that built up with simple means and can be installed.
  • the task is based on the characteristics of the Claim 1 solved and by the further features of Subclaims designed and further developed.
  • a gas sensor is used, which when exceeded the concentration of flammable gases.
  • Which he Signal status "Danger” is coded by an encoder Alarm signal via the house line to a decoder sent the remote to the house network is connected and for example in the fuse box located.
  • the decoder responds and issues a control signal which causes a switching device to Switch off the house power line in the danger area. From the fuse box can be in the danger zone Switch off the leading circuit easily.
  • a warning or alarm device can be switched on become. It is also possible to have a telephone dialer to activate, via which the alarm is given. Finally, there may also be a check valve in the gas line be present when switching off the circuit in the Locked state goes and the gas supply line blocks. Conveniently a memory is assigned to the decoder, which the Alarm state is maintained until it is willful, for example by pressing a button becomes.
  • the gas explosion protection device contains at least two parts, namely a gas warning device GWS and a gas alarm and Activation device GAF.
  • a gas warning device GWS can be an alarm siren, a valve actuator or VSA a telephone dialing device TWE can be controlled.
  • the Connection between the warning device GWS and the gas alarm and Activation device GAF takes place via the existing mains cable NL of the building in which the gas explosion protection device is installed.
  • the gas alarm and free-standing device GAF is preferred in an existing switch box Installed. If you hear the alarm elsewhere want, it is conveniently possible to add a gas warning device GWZ via an existing socket to the domestic power line NL to be connected to the encoder of the Alarm device emitted alarm signal and in the To give living area alarm.
  • the telephone dialing device TWE can also have a decoder be controllable, as is the case with the gas warning accessory is. Then this TWE device can be used anywhere where there is an outlet.
  • Fig. 2 shows the structure of the gas warning device GWS. It will a commercial gas sensor GS type TG 813 is used.
  • This gas detector GS warns early of dangers caused by Town gas, propane, butane, methane are generated.
  • the effect of Circuit is based on the conductivity of a Semiconductor increases when flammable gases (such as methane, Butane). In a nutshell this effect is due to the following physical behavior underlying. At the numerous grain boundaries of the Semiconductor crystals become oxygen atoms from the air bound and form there due to reversible oxidation Potential locks. When exposed to certain gases Reduction leading to an increase in electron density in the Space charge area leads and the potential difference to the Breaks down grain boundaries (increase in conductivity, decrease in Resistance). This process is reversible, i.e. at the Reaching the original state of the air accomplishes this Material again an old resistance.
  • the sensor used here essentially consists of tin dioxide (SnO 2 ), a sintered semiconductor material. Even low concentrations of certain gases cause a significant increase in conductivity, which can be more than two orders of magnitude. In other words, the electrical resistance of this material drops below 1% of the value it has in normal air when exposed to these gases.
  • the gas sensor TG 813 is connected to a signal evaluation SA of the type LM 311 N connected, which in turn from a power supply NT is fed for 12V DC voltage.
  • the signal evaluation SA is assigned a threshold value transmitter ⁇ , which determines when the signal state "danger" is given, which the Signal evaluation SA to a switch-on delay element EV from Type SE 555 passes on.
  • This switch-on delay element EV a CD 4011 BCN type link is connected downstream, which controls an HT 600 EC encoder. This generates a coded alarm signal by a network modulator NM switched as a transmitter on the house network line NL so that it can be received anywhere in the house.
  • Fig. 3 shows the gas alarm and free call device GAF.
  • a power supply NT for 12V DC voltage Supply of the various components include a demodulator DM as a receiver and one connected to it Decoder DC of type HT 614.
  • an ASA type ABB 5 2-A1 shunt release is connected, which in turn is a type SA S automatic circuit breaker 280 controls the endangered circuit of the house power line De-energize NL to prevent any sparking exclude in the danger zone.
  • the switching relay SR can also have a siren or flashing light be connected as shown.
  • a valve actuator VSA or a telephone dialer Connect TWE as indicated in Fig. 1.
  • the valve actuator can also be constructed so that it assumes its blocking position when de-energized. If so in the area of gas supply in the basement of a building gas is detected by the gas sensor and the house power line in this area is turned off at the same time the gas blocked. Because the network is elsewhere in the building remains switched on, can be given without further alarm become.
  • the switching relay SR in Fig. 3 is a one Memory for the coded alarm signal, since it is his Maintains the switching state until it is back in by hand the "safe" position is reset. So no one can Alarm signal go unnoticed and ignored.
