# What alarms does a medical gas pipeline need?

EN ISO 7396-1 includes requirements for the monitoring and alarm systems of a medical gas pipeline, alongside its supply and distribution.

Ultra Controlo supplies master alarm panels, alarm relay panels for zones, valves and second-stage units, low pressure switches and Siemens digital pressure displays, plus the QuGas monitoring system and the QuAir alarm panel. On ULTRAOX plants, all alarms are also on an interface for remote signalling.
