Gasmaster Detection Control Panel

Product Overview

The Crowcon Gasmaster is a compact, versatile and powerful gas detection control panel that combines simple operation with an extensive array of input and output functions.

Crowcon Gasmaster provides all the information you need about your gas and fire detectors at a glance. The large multi-lingual display shows gas levels from all detectors simultaneously and enables system adjustment and testing using buttons on the front panel. Crowcon Gasmaster can operate ‘stand-alone’ or interface with any alarm devices and control systems using a selection of outputs.
