6.0 INSTALLATION
The following documents the installation criteria of the Model 452-201 Remote Carbon
Monoxide Detector Installation:
a. Choose a location behind the instrument panel for the installation of the CO Detector.
Choose a location with space available that also meets the following criteria. A typical
installation is shown in drawing 01-2510-02 rev. C or later. The unit can be installed on
any side of the instrument panel.
b. Insure that the area around the CO Detector panel location will permit unrestricted airflow
through the unit.
c. Install in a cockpit area not exposed to excessively dusty or dirty conditions.
d. Insure that the air intake on the front of the CO Detector is not obstructed in any manner.
e. Install the CO Detector in a location without high or disturbed airflow movement. The CO
Detector will detect the presence of CO more effectively if the unit does not have air
blowing over it.
f. Insure that the CO Detector installation area meets the temperature and humidity ranges
listed in the List of Particulars specifications. Temperature and humidity conditions
outside the specification may affect the sensitivity of the detector.
g. Install the TEST/RESET and the amber ALERT annunciator in a location within the pilot's
direct field of vision and within normal pilot's reach. Note: see MFG MFD installation
manual if TEST/RESET and the amber ALERT annunicator unit will not be installed and
the data will be displayed thru the RS232 interface with MFD.
h. The unit can be remotely installed behind the instrument panel up to six inches from the
panel air sampling holes. Verify there are no bends that may obstruct air flow to the unit.
