GSL-KR100 Automatic Flammable Gas Control and Disposal Device with Self-Ignition Heating Coil and Remote Monitoring
The GSL-KR100 is engineered to manage and safely eliminate residual flammable gases generated during laboratory processes, particularly in experiments involving reducing atmospheres such as hydrogen flow. It is designed to integrate seamlessly with MTI tube and atmosphere furnaces, providing a controlled environment by combusting leftover flammable gases through a self-ignition heating coil.
This device not only disposes of hazardous gases but also offers precise gas flow regulation and safety interlocks. It communicates with a Honeywell hydrogen gas detector to monitor gas leaks and automatically shuts off gas flow and furnace heating in emergency conditions. Remote operation and data logging are facilitated via an RJ45 Ethernet port, enhancing laboratory safety and control.
Key Features
- Self-ignition heating coil for combustion of residual flammable gases.
- Compatible with MTI tube and atmosphere furnaces for reducing environment experiments.
- Gas flow control with a mass flow controller ranging from 0 to 1000 sccm.
- Integration with Honeywell hydrogen gas detector with preset alarm at 20% LEL.
- Safety interlocks that cut off gas flow and furnace heating upon gas leak detection, coil failure, overpressure, or absence of flammable gas flow.
- Dual solenoid valves to select between inert and flammable gas flow paths.
- Double explosion protection via pressure sensor and mechanical pressure relief valve.
- Remote control, monitoring, and data logging through RJ45 Ethernet connection.
- Constant pressure mode to maintain slightly positive pressure in the furnace tube during heating.

Configuration & Operating Notes
The GSL-KR100 requires installation of a metallic mesh cover at both ends of the furnace tube when used with tube furnaces to ensure emergency containment. It must be operated in a well-ventilated area or fume hood. The hydrogen gas detector is mandatory for safe operation. Operators should be trained by qualified personnel and adhere strictly to laboratory safety guidelines. Optional accessories and consumables such as heating elements, processing tubes, and O-rings are available separately.
