Gas Proving
29 July 2013
Intelligas 100 Series Gas Interlock The Intelligas 100 series is the simplest, most economical system that we offer. It meets the requirements of BS 6173, and it’s easy to install – even if you’re not technically qualified. It’s carefully designed and clearly labelled, and if you’re having problems our 24-hour helpline is moments away.

Key Features
- Solid state circuitry, no relays or components to go wrong
- Supplied complete with air pressure switches
- Full fan and gas valve status indication
- On board emergency stop button (that doubles as a system on / off switch)
- All connections on front panel, leaving the complete enclosure for cable entry
- Fire alarm interlock
- Up to 2 additional emergency stop buttons can be connected directly to the PCB
Intelligas MCS101 Multi Functional Controller
The MSC101 is a microprocessor based multi services & multi function controller. It provides not only the control of building services but also compliance with building bulletin 101 (carbon dioxide levels in classrooms). This makes the unit ideally suited to the school laboratory environment for example.
Key Features
- Provides the user with complete control over electric water and gas supplies in
- Automatic gas proving as standard
- Keyswitch authorisation required for all changes to isolated / active services
- BB101 (carbon dioxide levels in classrooms) compliant. Choose between either switched detector inputs or 0 – 10v input
- Ventilation speed control. 0 – 10v output can be appended to either the switched BB101 input or to the 0 – 10v input
- Completely BMS compatible
- Fascia mounted emergency stop and emergency stop indicated on the panel fascia
- Additional Remote emergency stop terminals are provided
- Fire alarm interface terminals separately indicated on front panel fascia
- Auxiliary interlock terminals are provided for the connection of gas or carbon monoxide detectors
- The system fascia can be mounted remotely from the main wiring PCB and linked with a 6-core alarm cable
Intelligas EGI-1 Gas Interlock system
The Intelligas EGI-1 interlock system has all the benefits of our well-established 100 series. But it is powered by a built-in microprocessor, which gives it zero fail rate. Furthermore, because it is software-driven, this system can be adapted to perform additional functions – just ask.
Key Features
- BS6173 compliant
- Microprocessor controlled gas interlock system
- Easy to read user instructions
- Software-driven processor ensures virtually zero failure rate
- Supplied complete with air pressure switches; software deals with any aps flutter issues
- On board emergency stop button that doubles as system on / off switch
- Easy-to-read LED user display
- Up to 2 additional emergency stop buttons can be connected directly to the PCB
- Fire alarm interlocks to facilitate connection to the buildings system and an Ansuls system if required
- Auxiliary interlocks to connect gas detection equipment or noxious gas detectors
- Remote emergency stop terminals for up to 2 emergency stops and 1 on board e stop included
Intelligas EGIP Automatic gas proving system
The Intelligas EGIP gas proving system is easy to install, with a straightforward LED display. It’s different to other proving systems because all of the connections are mains rated – making wiring easier and data cabling unnecessary. This means installation is about 30% quicker than alternative systems, saving on labour. All this, plus it’s backed with our 3-year guarantee. It’s a safe choice.
Key Features
- Kit includes control panel, 2 air pressure switches, emergency stop button, gas pressure switch and installation instructions
- Complete Gasafe technical bulletin 130 compliant, key switch start and BS6173 compliant
- Adjustable purge and prove time (purge 5s / 10s and prove 30s / 60s)
- Automatic detection of downstream leaks and open gas valves to prevent dangerous gas leak situations
- System automatically purges and proves the gas line for integrity, and gas is only made available when full prove is carried out
- No complicated LCD display driver chips to go wrong in the heat of a kitchen (unlike some competitor products)
- Compliance with CORGI’s TB130 and BS6173 – the system needs the manger’s keyswitch to start and low gas pressure monitoring, even after start-up
- Low voltage: sensor outputs and interlocks are all 24v, electrically isolated supply, safer wiring and safer for service personnel
Intelligas 100P Gas Proving System
The Intelligas 100P gas proving system meets the requirements of IGE/UP/11 and it’s easy to install. It’s carefully designed and clearly labelled, and if you’re having problems our 24-hour helpline is moments away.
Key Features
- Simple, effective entry level gas proving system
- Supplied complete with remote emergency stop button and gas pressure switch
- Full system status indication
- Easy wipe clean fascia
- On board emergency stop button (that doubles as a system on / off switch)
- All connections on front panel, leaving the complete enclosure for cable entry
- Clearly-marked terminals for easy installation
- Fire alarm interlock
- 1 additional emergency stop button can be connected directly to the PCB
- 2 year guarantee
EGIP-1E Gas Proving & Electrical Isolatiotion System
The Intelligas EGIP-1E gas proving system is easy to install, with a straightforward LED display. It’s different to other proving systems because all of the connections are mains rated – making wiring easier and data cabling unnecessary. This means installation is about 30% quicker than alternative systems, saving on labour. All this, plus it’s backed with our 3-year guarantee. It’s a safe choice.
Key Features
- Complete Corgi technical bulletin 130 compliant, key switch start and BS6173 compliant
- Adjustable purge and prove time (purge 5s / 10s and prove 30s / 60s)
- Automatic detection of downstream leaks and open gas valves to prevent dangerous gas leak situations
- System automatically purges and proves the gas line for integrity, and gas is only made available when full prove is carried out
- Simple to install single valve and pressure switch arrangement (pressure switch screws directly into gas valve piezo port)
- No complicated LCD display driver chips to go wrong in the heat of a kitchen (unlike some competitor products)
- System provides control of electrical systems such as bench sockets via an emergency stop interfaced keyswitch on the panel fascia
- System only uses a main gas solenoid valve (not included) so no need for an unsightly proving valve and bulky arrangement
- Compliance with CORGI’s TB130 and BS6173 – the system needs the manger’s keyswitch to start and low gas pressure monitoring, even after start-up
- Low voltage: sensor outputs and interlocks are all 24v, electrically isolated supply, safer wiring and safer for service personnel
The MWA EC1000 is an interlock between the ventilation system and the gas solenoid valve. The gas solenoid valve will not open unless the fans are on or the air flow is below set levels. The interlock system Complies with all Corgi gas regulations for commercial kitchens and provides complete compliance with BS6173. There is clear indication for gas on.
and power on with a wipe clean fascia ideal for kitchen environments. The EC1000 comes complete with the gas interlock unit, air differential pressure switch’s & fitting kits for two fans and an emergency panic button. Clearly marked terminals make this gas interlock system extremely easy to install.
EC4000 gas interlock
The MWA EC4000 gas interlock has the same features as the EC1000 gas interlock but with up to four fan connections for the larger commercial kitchen.
Gas proving system with ventilation interlock
The gas proving & fan interlock system ensures that the ventilation is on and there is no gas escaping to atmosphere before the gas solenoid valve is opened. Very easy to use with an LCD display on the gas proving panel giving the operator solutions and not just LED indications. The LCD panel tells the operator the status and what to do in the event of any failures or problems. This gas proving system utilises a true differential pressure across the gas solenoid valve and fan failure bypass to meet Corgi & HSE guidance. Gas will not be available in the kitchen unless any mechanical ventilation is switched on, this isachieved by a 2 channel current monitor connected to the gas proving panel which is more reliable than air differential pressure switches. The unit has electronic pressure measuring technology, measuring true differential pressure on both sides of the gas solenoid valve. The gas proving system will ensure the gas supply cannot be turned on if there is a gas leak.
