GAS  |  Q5 **/** B5 SERIES 

## Q5/B5 SERIES **Toxic/Combustible Gas Transmitter** 

The B5/Q5 Toxic/Combustible Gas Detectors use various sensing technologies to detect a wide assortment of gases.  These units are housed in a NEMA 4X rated plastic enclosure that will meet the most stringent applications.  All models feature an internal clock, LCD Display for displaying gas concentrations and setup, LED Status Indication, integral buzzer with three user configurable relays and a number of different communication protocols for use with one of our gas controllers or your building management system. Factory calibrated sensor module replacements are available and are easily replaced in the field by removing two screws on the previous module. All units should be checked for proper functionality and calibration once the replacement sensor module is reinstalled and has had a chance to warm up.  A user selectable password can be used to protect the system integrity. The Q5 can be used as a standalone gas detector or in conjunction with the Q4C, M-Controller or Q-Controllers using the proprietary RS-485 Optomux communication protocol. The B5 uses BACnet™ MSTP (RS485) protocol to communicate directly with a BAS. ACI also offers a full line of horns and strobes that can be used with the Gas detectors or building management system to alert building occupants of an alarm condition. Refer to all applicable Federal, State, Provincial and Local Health and Safety laws and regulations before using these products. The Q5/B5-GENL can be ordered to monitor specific combustible gases such as Gasoline, Ethanol, Diesel or Jet fuel. Contact ACI for specific gases. 

**Applications:** Mechanical Rooms, Warehouses, Refrigeration Plants, Industrial Plants, Process Monitoring, Leak Detection, Parking Garages, Auto/ Truck Maintenance Facilities, Oil and Gas Industry, and Switchgear. 

**The Q5/B5 Series Gas Transmitters are covered by ACI’s Two (2) Year Limited Warranty against defects in material and workmanship from the date of shipment with the exception of the Sensor Modules (Electrochemical/Toxic: Six Months and Catalytic/Combustible: One Year). The warranty can be found in the front of ACI’s Sensors & Transmitters catalog, as well as on ACI’s website,** workaci.com **.**
