RF Gas sensor/detector Kerui KR-GD23

---

Hey guys!
I recently got my hands on a RF gas detector and want to share my findings with you.
This device can detect natural gas, lpg, coal gas and biogas. the alarm level can be set in the menu.

You can use the device with PIR6 protocol. It works like a charm!
Very nice is the colored LCD screen with setup menu. Also there’s a built in battery to store settings. Also the device is talking and warning in english.

On the back you are able to add wires for NC / NO relays or 9v and com wires.
Furthermore you can add a battery for backup/emergency power (but actually i yet do not know which battery can be added, i need to do some more research on that)

here’s the pimatic config with a reset time of 1 minute. click here for gui view 1 click here for gui view 2

    {
      "protocols": [
        {
          "name": "pir6",
          "options": {
            "id": 2484410
          }
        }
      ],
      "resetTime": 60000,
      "echo": {
        "additionalNames": []
      },
      "id": "Gasdetector",
      "name": "Gasdetector",
      "class": "HomeduinoRFPir"
    }

allright guys, hope this will be helpful for you!
gonna come up with some other interesting devices soon

cheers

just to let you know about my installation

works perfectly with a nice pushover rule (the message text just says that a high amount of gas is detected)
WHEN Gasdetector signals presence THEN push title:"GAS ALARM !!" message:"Es befindet sich eine hohe Konzentration an Erdgas im Heizungsraum." priority:2 sound:"siren" retry:30 expire:3600

This rule is fired either when pushing the test button on the device or when the concentration of gas exeeds the given threshold.

you will be notified on pushover with an alarm sound even if the phone is muted.
priority 2 is the highest, so use this only for alarm messages.
you are also triggered to acknowledge the message, otherwise pushover will retry (resend) every 30 seconds a notificaion alarm for the expire time of 3600 seconds (1 hour, max 3 hours)
