Where automatic fire alarm equipments for gas leakage are used, fire alarm divisions shall be allocated under Article 112.
The above-mentioned gas refers to the following gas fuels:
1.Natural gas.
2.Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG).
3.Other gases designated by the central regulating authority.

Gas leakage detectors shall be installed at proper locations convenient for inspection and repair on the ceiling or wall depending on the characteristics of the gas and pursuant to the following requirements:
1.Where the specific gravity of gas to air is less than 1, the following provisions shall be observed:
(1)Detector shall be installed within a horizontal distance not more than 8m away from the gas burning appliances or from the position the gas pipe goes through the wall. Where the floorslabs have beams with a net height not less than 60cm or other similar constructions, detectors shall be installed just nearby the gas burning appliances or the positions the gas goes through the wall.
(2)Where there are air inlets on the ceiling of the room where the gas burning appliances are, detectors shall be installed within 1.5m away from the air inlets separated by the beams with a net height not less than 60cm or other similar constructions between the gas burning appliances or the location the gas pipe goes through the wall and the ceiling.
(3)The lower end of detector shall be within 30cm under the ceiling.
2.Where the specific gravity of gas to air is not less than 1, the following provisions shall apply:
(1)Detector shall be installed within a horizontal distance not more than 4m away from the gas burning appliances or from the position the gas pipe goes through the wall.
(2)The upper end of detector shall be within 30cm above the floor.
3. The commencing and terminal points for calculating the horizontal distance are as follows:
(1)For a gas-burning appliance, the point is the center of the appliance.
(2)For a position the gas pipe goes through the wall, the point is the center of the gas pipe at the position the gas pipe goes through the wall.

Gas leakage signal receiving switchboard shall meet the following requirements:
1.Gas leakage signal receiving switchboard shall be located in watchroom or other populated places. Where a disaster prevention center is set up, the switchboard shall be located in the center.
2.The alarm division where gas leakage occurs shall be marked.
3.For detectors installed at the position the gas pipe goes through the wall, the alarm divisions shall be marked respectively.
