Shelly Gas LPG: Wi-Fi Sensor for Propane & Butane

Safety first when using gas bottles: the Shelly Gas LPG

Whether you're cooking on your boat, turning on the heater in your camper, or lighting your gas barbecue, safety is paramount. The Shelly Gas LPG is a smart Wi-Fi gas sensor specifically designed to monitor you and your surroundings when using gas bottles. It instantly detects the presence of LPG (propane or butane) and sounds the alarm immediately. This allows you to enjoy peace of mind, knowing you'll be alerted immediately if a leak occurs.

Do you need a CNG or LPG gas detector?

Choosing the right sensor for the right gas type is essential. Here's a simple guide:

• LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas): This is bottled gas, such as propane or butane. You use it for BBQs, camping stoves, in campers, or on boats . LPG is heavier than air and sinks to the floor . Therefore, you should place an LPG sensor low to the ground , near the gas bottle.
• CNG (Compressed Natural Gas): This is the gas that enters your home through pipes for your boiler or stove. Natural gas is lighter than air and rises . Therefore, a CNG sensor should be placed high on the wall .

In short: Do you use gas bottles? Then this Shelly Gas LPG is the right choice for you.

The power of the Shelly Gas Sensor

• Specific for LPG : This sensor is optimized to detect propane and butane, the gases used in most gas bottles.
• Double Alarm : When gas is detected, the sensor immediately activates a loud audible alarm (>70dB) and a clearly visible red light alarm.
• Direct Notifications on your Phone : Thanks to the Wi-Fi connection and the Shelly Cloud app, you will receive a push message directly on your smartphone, wherever you are.
• Safe Housing : The sensor housing is made of flame retardant material for added safety.
• Smart Home Automation : Connect the Shelly Gas to other Shelly devices for a complete safety routine.
• Simple Plug-and-Play Installation : Plug the sensor into a wall socket, connect it to your Wi-Fi network via the Shelly app, and you're protected.

Practical application: the safe outdoor kitchen

Plug the Shelly Gas LPG into a low-profile outlet in your shed or shelter, near your BBQ's gas cylinder. Combine it with the separately available Shelly Gas Add-on (a motorized valve) that you mount on the cylinder's gas tap.

If the Shelly Gas detects a leak, it not only sends a loud alarm and a notification to your phone, but also immediately activates the Shelly Gas Add-on, which automatically turns off the cylinder's gas valve . This is the most effective way to stop a dangerous situation immediately.
