SEC-K v4 Ventilation Interlock and Gas Proving System for Commercial Kitchens
The SEC-K is a ventilation interlock and gas proving system for commercial kitchens with multiple in-built features which can be used where and when required to help sites meet BS6173:2020 & IGEM UP19.

Additional safety monitoring
The recently updated V4 system can monitor for carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) out-of-hours so even when the panel is switched off an alarm can be raised, or ventilation switched on. This provides additional safety monitoring particularly if solid fuel appliances are installed within the kitchen.
Gas proving must be fitted in any commercial kitchen which has appliances fitted without flame failure devices (FFD’s). As explained further in the article “why fit gas pressure proving in a commercial kitchen?” gas proving should be considered for the long-term benefit and safety of the site when considering other gas standards and that the majority of leaks identified are before the FFD’s.
Reliable, safe and flexible
Demand-controlled ventilation fail-safe gas valve and relay checking are just some of the new developments making Medem systems continue to be the most reliable, safest and flexible available today.

SEC-K v4 Ventilation Interlock and Gas Proving System Warranty and Service

All our products come with a 5-year warranty
Medem’s industry leading five-year warranty is a demonstration of the company’s confidence in the quality and design of its products.
This applies to the main panels and sender units, gas detectors carry a 2-year warranty.

Why not let us install your system and receive a 10-year Warranty?
Where we’ve commissioned an installed system, the warranty is extended from five to ten years. At the time of commissioning, photos and gas pressure readings are recorded along with other relevant details of the installation. A 24-hour helpline number and the serial number is attached with the panel and all details are then entered on to the Medem database.
Service
The panel and sensors must be re-commissioned and tested every 12 months as a minimum but with consideration of every 6 months dependent on gas type and environment. Medem offers cost-effective yearly service plan options which include detector exchange
