Methane gas monitoring

Under oxygen-free conditions and during slurry storage, bacterial processes occur and methane gases are formed, especially in cattle slurry. This can make level measurements unstable because bubbles form in the slurry.

Bubbles are detected by measuring the level over time while also registering whether the level is rising or falling within a period.

Methane gas monitoring can cancel alarms from seepage and leak monitoring if a methane gas bubble is detected at the same time. Release monitoring is not affected.

The recommendation is to use methane gas monitoring only for cattle slurry, and only if false alarms from seepage or leak monitoring become a problem.

Set the operating mode for methane gas monitoring.

• Always start with Level 1. If false alarms continue, try Level 2
• #The # character marks an index number. For example, TIMER# represents a parameter family for multiple inputs, where TIMER1 configures input 1 and TIMER2 configures input 2. indicates the tank number, for example GYGAS1 1', which sets monitoring to level 1 for tank 1

Parameter	Index	Range	Format	Factory setting	Example
GYGAS#	1..2	0..4	0 = Off 1 = Level 1 - Seepage/leak alarm is canceled if the level rises again 2 = Level 1 - Seepage/leak alarm is canceled if the level rises again and a messageA message sent by the equipment to one or more configured users, for example an SMS or email alarm. is sent 3 = Level 2 - Seepage/leak alarm is canceled if the level rises again or is stable 4 = Level 2 - Seepage/leak alarm is canceled if the level rises again or is stable and a messageA message sent by the equipment to one or more configured users, for example an SMS or email alarm. is sent	2	GYGAS1 0
