The GBC 64.0510.80 detects the concentration of methane in the air and activates both a visual indicator and an audible alarm when the level reaches the pre-set threshold. Methane is lighter than air, so the detector is designed to be mounted on the wall or near the ceiling where methane accumulates first.

The unit runs on mains power (230Vac, 50Hz) and draws only 3W during normal operation. Its 30-second response time and alarm output at 10% LEL (±3% LEL) give occupants enough time to act before concentrations become dangerous.

Key Features

• Detects methane gas (light gas) concentration
• Combined visual and acoustic alarm
• Alarm threshold: 10% LEL ±3% LEL
• 30-second response time
• Wall or ceiling mounting
• Mains powered: 230Vac – 50Hz

Product Benefits

• Ceiling or high-wall placement is specifically designed for methane, which rises and accumulates near the ceiling — giving early warning before dangerous concentrations build up at floor level
• Dual alarm output (visual LED indicator + audible tone under 70dB) ensures the alert is noticed even in noisy or visually impaired situations
• Mains power eliminates battery replacement concerns, keeping the detector always active
• Suitable for domestic and commercial premises wherever natural gas is used — kitchen, boiler room, or utility room
