In which professional associations or expert groups is INOSENT represented?
It is important for INOSENT to always be able to offer its customers and new customers gas monitoring systems that comply with the latest guidelines.
Do gas warning systems always require annual maintenance?
Yes, gas warning systems should be serviced regularly – both for technical reasons and because of standards such as the SES guidelines or SWKI VA-103 for Underground car parks. Deviations from the recommended intervals are possible, but should be documented. Important: The owner is always responsible for maintenance. If maintenance is not carried out and damage occurs, the owner is liable. For your safety, maintenance may only be carried out by INOSENT or authorized partners.
Why does INOSENT use bus systems instead of analog systems whenever possible?
Bus systems are cost-efficient, flexible and future-proof. They reduce the amount of cabling required, enable extensions such as humidity control in underground car parks with little effort and offer numerous configuration options. The bus line can be up to 1,200 meters long, and INOSENT (type IMK 21275) supplies the appropriate cables – for convenient installation and smooth commissioning.
Why has INOSENT developed bus-compatible alarm lights?
Bus-compatible alarm lights reduce cabling costs, offer flexible control via software and can be installed anywhere in the bus line, which can be up to 1,200 m long. The horn and light signal can be controlled separately and each light is monitored – in the event of a fault, the system immediately reports a technical fault.
Why does INOSENT detect Carbon monoxide & nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) as well as Carbon monoxide (CO) in Underground car parks?
CO warning systems reliably protect against carbon monoxide, which is produced by incomplete combustion in vehicle engines. However, nitrogen dioxide also plays a role in modern underground car parks with diesel vehicles, as even small amounts are hazardous to health. A CO alarm alone is therefore not enough. INOSENT combines CO warning systems with NO₂ sensors – for comprehensive protection, optimum ventilation control and maximum safety in underground car parks.
Why does INOSENT recommend humidity sensors in Underground car parks in addition to CO/NO₂ sensors?
Moisture in Underground car parks can lead to mold, corrosion and structural damage. Ventilation can be optimally controlled with humidity sensors: Ventilation is only provided when the humidity is too high – this saves energy and costs, increases the service life of the building fabric and ensures a healthy indoor climate. In combination with CO/NO₂ sensors, this creates an intelligent overall system for safety and value retention.
Why does INOSENT mainly use infrared sensors for monitoring synthetic refrigerants and not semiconductor sensors?
Infrared sensors measure reliably and precisely – without false alarms. They are insensitive to interfering influences such as silicone vapors and thus ensure stable monitoring. The newly developed I3605 sensor also offers integrated self-diagnosis, three relay outputs for different alarm levels and an LCD display for easy calibration. INOSENT thus provides a safe and low-maintenance solution for A1 and A2L refrigerants.
Why does INOSENT rely on infrared and MPS technology instead of catalytic sensors for monitoring explosive gases and vapors?
Catalytic sensors are susceptible to poisoning, have a relatively short service life and are not self-monitoring. Infrared sensors, on the other hand, offer high accuracy and long-term stability, while MPS sensors reliably detect hydrogen, operate drift-free and are low-maintenance. INOSENT thus ensures maximum safety and reliable measurements – even in demanding environments.
