Main characteristics

GDP 2000
To discriminate between natural gas and other explosive gases, and to display the gas concentration
• Detects all types of explosive gas with discrimination
• Displays simple messages for the user ie :
- “OK” for “no gas detected”
- “Nat G” for “NATURAL GAS” or “FLM G” for “FLAMMABLE GAS” with the gas concentration detected in % LEL
