System description
SafeAir CM (GP)
System On/Off
Gas Pressure Proving and Ventilation Interlock System For Kitchens
The SafeAir CM (GP) is a Ventilation Interlock and Gas Pressure Proving system with inbuilt two channel current monitor The
system will ensure that any mechanical ventilation connected (supply or extract) is running before the gas can be used When
installed with Medem gas detectors it will also monitor the atmosphere for CO (Carbon Monoxide) and/or CO2 (Carbon Dioxide)
The system will also ensure there are no gas leaks downstream of the control valve at switch on by way of a downstream
integrity check, It continually checks that the incoming gas pressure is sufficient
The system comprises of a mains powered panel capable of operating up to four sensors and internal two channel current
monitor for interlocking the mechanical ventilation with a monitoring range of 30 mAmps to 24 Amps
The ventilation can also be interlocked by mechanical air flow switches (DP) if required
Control Panel
The front of the panel has the following controls and indications:
Emergency stop button
System On/Off switch
Detectors button - For viewing detector status
Mute
LCD display:
For displaying system status during both installation and normal use, also for displaying diagnostics
Pressure sender unit transmits pressure information back to the main panel in order for it to preform its integrity test Its is not
optional and must be connected, the system will not work without it.
It is mounted to the gas solenoid valve inlet and outlet test ports using 8mm OD copper pipe Use the appropriate Medem fitting
kit to fit the control valve size (see page 7,8)
Incoming gas ressure: Min = 12 mbar, Max = 70mb
The pressure sender is connected to the control panel with low voltage two core cable using the terminal marked A & B
NOTE: This is low voltage and should be segregated from mains wiring.

Gas Detection
Gas Detectors
IMPORTANT - Gas Detectors should not be installed until all building, construction or painting work etc Is completed, as these
works can effect the sensitivity and longevity of the detectors
Ensure that the protective cover labels (RED) are removed only
after the completion of all building work and the system has
been commissioned by the Medem engineer
The labels are required to be removed for the detectors to
operate, but removal before the completion of works risks
contaminating the sensor element
The system is capable of operating a mix of up to 4 detectors of different types
Detector Alarm levels
Type Pre-Alarm High Alarm
CO: 80ppm 100ppm
CO2: 1800ppm 2800ppm
Pre-alarm will display a warning message and tone (3beeps) every 10mins
High-alarm will display a warning message, tone every one second and isolate the gas valve after 60seconds
Detector location will vary dependant on the individual characteristics of the target gas that is being monitored for See the gas
detectors own instructions for more guidance
Detector Information
Connection and addressing
+VE supply & Comm’s
From either the main panel or an
extender
Detectors are wired in parallel and can be
connected to one another daisy chain
Address Selector
Each detector must be set to its own
address (1-4) and then “learnt” using
button 18 (see page 3)
Status LED
SafeAir CM (GP)
All current wiring regulations must be followed with reference to running low and mains voltage cables together
The maximum cable length between a detector and the control panel should not exceed 100 metres, if the distance between
the main panel and the detectors is greater than 20metres a 1mm screened cable must be used on the +VE, 0v terminals
Gas detectors, require a four core screened Belden type security cable or 600v rated BMS cable (max cable length of
100meters )
Pressure sender unit, remote emergency stops, require a two core screened cable
Warranty will be void if Fire Protection Cable or cable over 1mm dia is used on the SELV side

Detector Information
Detector location will vary dependant on the individual characteristics of the target gas that is being monitored for
The descriptions below describe the position for each detector after considering these characteristics
For proper function care must be taken not to site a detector in a “dead space” or in the flow of any ventilation
Natural Gas/Methane
Natural gas detectors should be mounted at high level on a wall approximately 150mm from the ceiling height and avoiding
corners and potential dead air areas
Natural gas detectors should not be mounted below the height of the top of a doorway for example This is because as the gas
is slightly lighter than air it will rise filling the room from the ceiling down and will spill through the top of a door opening into the
next room If the detectors are mounted below this height then it will take longer the gas to reach the detector
LPG /Pro ane
LPG gas is heavier than air so detectors need to be mounted at low level 100mm from the floor, consideration should be given
to any potential mopping or wet floor height
Carbon Monoxide
Carbon Monoxide is similarly weighted to air so detectors should be mounted between 1 to 2 meters from the floor
Carbon Dioxide
Carbon Dioxide detectors should be installed so they monitor the general level of CO2 within the area They should be mounted
above standing head height and between 1m and 3m from the potential source Care should be taken so they are not located
close to the edge of a canopy or in direct flow of the supply or extract ventilation
For additional information or guidance on site specific requirements please don’t hesitate to contact us
Each detector has its own Bi-Colour LED which is used to indicate the status of that detector
Not Lit: No power/comm’s These a four wire units and all connections are required, check the polarity of both the
power and the comm’s (MA/MB) terminals are correct
Flashing Green: Detector is warming up, the detectors will flash green on power up for 90 seconds while the sensor
elements stabilize The system will ignore any detectors while flashing
Solid Green: Detector is powered and active Note: The detectors will still require correctly addressing (using the address
selector pot) and learning by the system using button 16 (see page 3)
Flashing Red: Low level alarm All detectors have both a low and high level alarm, low level alarms serve as a warning
that an unsafe condition maybe building and gives chance to intervene before loss of gas service
Solid Red High level alarm An unsafe level of the target gas have been reached and the system will isolate the
gas supply The cause of the alarm will require identifying and resolving before the gas supply can be re-
established
After installation a simple bump test can be performed by using an appropriate level test gas in order to check operation Full
testing and calibration checking takes place during a Medem commissioning

If you wish to set a minimum fan running speed, adjust the fans to the desired speed settings and then press buttons 19 & 18 together
This will change the “minimum trip current” setting from the default 35mA to be that being used by the fans at your set speed
Pressing button 19 (Fan comm) alone will display the new “minimum trip current” value If the fan load drops below that level for more
than 10 seconds the system will give an alert and isolate the gas supply There is a 20% allowance for fluctuations in fan load due to
temperature etc
