INSTALLATION OF ALARM

The carbon monoxide alarm shall be a BRK Model CO250 and shall provide at a 
minimum the following features and functions:
  1.  An electrochemical CO sensor.
  2.  The unit shall be capable of self restoring.
  3.  The unit shall have an "End of Life" signal. This signal should be capable of   
 

 temporarily being silenced for up to 2 days. After about 2 days, the signal will  

 

 resume. After about 2-3 weeks the signal cannot be silenced. 

  4.  Powered by a supervised 9V battery and a solid state piezo horn
 

 rated at 85dB at 10 ft.

  5.  A visual LED power-on indicator to confirm unit is receiving power or
 

 is in alarm.

  6.  A test/silence button to check all alarm functions and to silence any nuisance
 

 alarms. In addition, the unit shall have a low battery silence feature to quiet   

 

 the low battery chirp for up to eight hours.

  7.  A tamper resistant locking pin that locks alarm cover to prevent removal
  

of 

battery.

  8.  The CO sensor is adjusted not to detect CO levels below 30 PPM and will not
 

 alarm when exposed to constant levels of 30 PPM for 30 days. It will alarm

 

 at the following levels: 400 PPM CO between 4 and 15 minutes, 150 PPM CO

 

 between 10 and 50 minutes and 70 PPM CO between 60 and 240 minutes.

  9.  The unit shall be capable of operating between 40°F (4°C) and
 

 100°F (38°C) and relative humidity between 10% and 95%.

 10.  The unit shall contain mounting hardware and shall be listed for wall
 

 or ceiling mounting.

 11.  The unit shall at a minimum meet the requirements of UL2034, NFPA 720,    
 

 NFPA 101, ICC.
