Xiaomi recently launched a Smoke Detector manufactured in conjunction with Honeywell. The Chinese tech giant has now announced a similar product dubbed Xiaomi Honeywell Gas Leak Detector. The product will be available under crowdfunding from May 19.
Just as the name implies, the Xiaomi Honeywell Gas Leak Detector is designed to monitor natural gas leaks in real-time. The device is integrated with a high-decibel alarm that will be triggered when a gas leak is detected. The leak detector can also be linked to close the solenoid valve.
Apart from the gas leak detection feature, the Xiaomi Gas Detector is integrated with Bluetooth gateway, bringing on board Xiaomi’s AloT smart experience. In terms of the design, it uses dual front and rear air inlets and built-in sensors. When the natural gas concentration reaches the alarm set value, the device will immediately send out an audible and visual alarm signal. The alarm sound is as last as 70dB.
. Apart from the integrated alarm on the device, the alarm also triggers other alarms on other Xiaomi smart home devices. At the same time, the MIJIA app will send messages remotely to the connected smartphone in order for the leak to be tackled immediately even if you are not at home.
The device can be installed either on the ceiling or mounted on a wall. However, it can’t be installed directly above the gas cylinder or cooker. When a leak is detected, the device can trigger the closure of the solenoid valve through the connection terminal linkage, thus cutting off the gas supply.
The Xiaomi Honeywell Gas Leak Detector carries a retail price of 179 yuan (~$28) but will be available during the crowdfunding exercise for 169 yuan (~$26).
