Macurco 70-0715-6468-9 Combustible Gas Detector

Product Description

The MACURCO 70-0715-6468-9 is a commercial-grade combustible gas detector designed to sense the presence of methane and propane in enclosed spaces. It provides continuous ambient air monitoring and triggers audible or visual alarms when flammable gas concentrations reach unsafe levels. This type of detector is a key component in commercial gas safety systems, helping protect occupants and equipment in facilities where natural gas or LP gas is present. Installation and commissioning are typically performed by licensed gas, HVAC, or fire-alarm technicians working within applicable safety codes.

This detector is suited for commercial applications including restaurants, commercial kitchens, mechanical rooms, utility spaces, and other occupied or semi-occupied areas where methane or propane gas is used or stored. It is designed for fixed-point installation and provides on-site detection rather than portable spot-checking. Facilities managers and mechanical contractors typically specify this type of device as part of a broader gas safety or building automation plan.

Key Features

• Detects both methane and propane combustible gases in a single unit
• Designed for commercial installation environments
• Fixed-point continuous monitoring for ambient air safety
• Non-CO gas detector category — dedicated to combustible gas sensing
• Sold as a single unit (each)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fixed-point combustible gas detector for commercial gas safety systems where methane and propane detection is required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC, gas, or fire-alarm technician in accordance with local codes, NFPA 54, and the manufacturer product manual. Power down the circuit before wiring the unit. Mount the detector at the height appropriate for the target gas — methane rises and requires high placement, while propane is heavier than air and requires low placement. Do not paint over or obstruct the sensor element.
