NTRODUCTION

 

1.1 General description 

The GE Interlogix carbon monoxide (CO) detection system is the ideal solution for 
detection of dangerous levels of CO gas in car parks and other enclosed spaces where 
levels of CO gas must be monitored and controlled effectively. 

The detection system is based on the analysis of polyatomic gas molecules in the air and 
uses a rapid-acting (under ten seconds) SnO2 doped semiconductor housed in the head 
of the detector. CO levels are sent to and displayed in the control panel and ventilation 
and alarm relays triggered automatically when user-defined CO levels are detected. 

System features:  

 

Easy to use modular design that provides flexible CO protection for 1 to 5 zones. 

 

Detection response of less than 10 seconds (using GE Interlogix KM170 CO 
detectors). 

 

Use of up to 15 detectors per zone. 

 

Coverage from 300m

2

 (single zone) up to 22,500m

2

 (five zones) using a single 

cabinet. 

 

Two relay outputs (ventilation, alarm) triggered by user-defined CO levels. 

 

Advanced system testing and self-testing functions to ensure reliable detection at all 
times. 

The CO detection system is available in the following versions:
