摘要:
A challenge to be met by the present invention is to enable appropriate setting of safety function according to a use environment and enhance safety function. An IC card (118) stores data pertaining to the quantity of available gas and at least one safety function program. An IC card reading unit (122) reads information stored in the IC card (118). From the read information, an IC card determination unit (126) determines whether or not the IC card (118) is normal. A safety function detection unit (128) detects a safety function program from the read information and stores the program in a safety function storage unit (130). When the IC card (118) is normal, a function setting unit (116) imparts a safety function program to a monitoring unit (112). A remaining available quantity count unit (124) determines a remaining quantity of available gas from the read quantity of available gas and a flow determined by a flow computing unit (110). A control unit (114) cuts off a gas supply when an event fulfilling operating conditions for safety function has arisen and when the remaining available quantity has come to a predetermined remaining quantity.

A convention appliance monitoring apparatus handles only the amount of gas used and security information for the case of a gas cutoff and can not address social needs for a desire to obtain information about influence (e.g., an amount of CO 2 emission) of use of the gas combustion appliance on a terrestrial environment. Based on a gas appliance used by a client and a gas flow signal pertaining the gas appliance which are output from an appliance determination unit 2, CO 2 emission data on the gas appliance stored in a CO 2 emission data storage unit 3, and CO 2 emission data which are to be compared with the gas appliance and stored in a comparative CO 2 emission data storage unit 4, a CO 2 emission calculation unit 5 calculates an amount of CO 2 emission, an comparative amount of CO 2 emission and a difference between the amount of CO 2 emission and the comparative amount of CO 2 emission. Accordingly, it is possible to determine the amount of CO 2 emission produced by using the gas appliance and the difference between the amount of CO 2 emission and the comparative amount of CO 2 emission.

摘要:
The present invention is intended to make it possible to set security functions as necessary depending on usage environment, etc. and to improve the security functions; a function setting section 1116 sets security function information received from the outside via a communication line as security functions regarding the user of gas. According to the set security function, in the case that the operation conditions of the security function are satisfied, a monitoring section 112 detects a problem during the use of gas and outputs a security signal to a control section 114. Based on the security signal from the monitoring section 112, the control section 114 shuts off the supply of gas in the case that a phenomenon satisfying an operation condition of the set function having been set has occurred.

The present invention relates to a gas odorizer that imparts to gas a warning odor required for awareness of gas leakage, and to a method of manufacturing town gas that uses the gas odorizer. The gas odorizer of the present invention contains no nitrogen, or even in cases in which it is included, is in a sufficiently low concentration, so that the combusting of fuel gas in which the gas odorizer of the present invention is blended does not produce sulfides, making it possible to prevent environmental pollution and making it suitable to use for fuel cell applications. The method of manufacturing the town gas of the present invention comprises a gasifying step of gasifying liquefied natural gas, an LPG odorizing step of adding the gas odorizer of the present invention to liquefied petroleum gas, and a town gas generation step in which liquefied petroleum gas obtained by the LPG odorizing step is gasified and mixed with natural gas obtained by the gasification step and the heating value and combustibility adjusted to form the town

A conventional appliance monitoring apparatus handles only the amount of gas used and security information for the case of a gas cutoff and can not address social needs for a desire to obtain information about influence (e.g., an amount of CO 2 emission) of use of the gas combustion appliance on a terrestrial environment. A CO 2 emission calculation unit 4 calculates an amount of CO 2 emission based on a gas appliance used by a client output from an appliance determination unit 2, a gas flow signal thereof, and CO 2 emission data pertaining to the gas appliance stored in a CO 2 emission data storage unit 3. Thus, it is possible to determine the amount of CO 2 emission produced by using the gas appliance by the client.

摘要:
Setting safety function, as appropriate, according to a user environment is enabled, thereby enhancing safety function. According to selection information from a safety function selection unit 120, a function setting unit 116 sets arbitrary function among a plurality of functions as safety function pertaining to usage of a gas. When operating conditions for safety function are fulfilled, a monitoring unit 112 detects malfunction, which would arise during usage of a gas, and outputs a safety signal to a control unit 114 in accordance with the set safety function. In accordance with a safety signal from the monitoring unit 112, the control unit 114 cuts off a gas supply when an event fulfilling operating conditions for the set function has arisen. When an event fulfilling operating conditions for an unset function has arisen, a communication unit 124 reports occurrence of malfunction pertaining to unset function to the monitoring center 200.
