The SEC-B is a gas pressure proving system with options for; electric isolation, gas detection and ventilation
interlocking.
The system will perform a down stream integrity check ensuring gas tightness before use, close the gas
solenoid valve in the event of a high-level gas alarm, ventilation failure, low incoming gas pressure or if the
emergency stop/fire alarm is activated.
It can automatically restart after a power cut and a fire alarm when the option is enabled. It is designed for
use primarily in boiler rooms.
Before commencing installation please familiarise yourself to the equipment by reading the comprehensive
installation instructions. If in doubt then please call 0161 233 0600. Out of hours please call 07894 684080 or
07843 355163.
It is a statutory requirement that this safety system is installed and commissioned
A commissioning certificate must be issued to the end user along with instructions for the operation of the
equipment.
As the Manufacturer Medem UK should commission this safety system whereupon a commissioning report
will be forwarded to the installing agent who should provide a copy to the end user.
At the point of our commissioning an individual serial number will be attached to the system along with a 24
help line number. Photos and all relevant information for the installation will then be stored on the Medem
site database to be accessed in the event of a call on the 24 hour help line. The warranty period for the
panel and sender unit will then be extended to Ten years.

    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 10,11).

  • Page 5 00241 SEC-B System Settings 17. Fill and Prove Gas Fill Time. The Fill Time should be set such that there is sufficient time to fill an empty pipe work system to full / normal pressure while ensuring a minimum escape of gas where a leak exists.
  • Page 6: Detector Information

    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.
  • Page 7 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. Detector Location Detector location will vary dependant on the individual characteristics of the target gas that is being monitored for.
