Description
TX-6310-03-1 Wireless CO Alarm monitors the levels of CO
gas and gives early warning when potentially dangerous levels
exist. It does not detect fire, smoke, or any other gas. If a
dangerous concentration of CO is detected by the patented
and field-proven electrochemical sensor, an LED indicator
illuminates and an internal siren is activated in temporal
4 pattern. The CO alarm also transmits an alarm signal to the
control panel within 15 seconds of detecting dangerous
concentration of CO gas. The control panel activates its
internal siren and reports the alarm condition to the central
monitoring station (if the system is monitored). The CO alarm
also detects low battery, wall tamper, and alarm end-of-life.
These trouble codes are transmitted to the control panel. The
alarm automatically resets when CO is no longer detected.
TX-6310-03-1 Wireless CO Alarm is certified with EN50291-
1:2010 standard for CO alarms. It is intended for residential
indoor dwelling unit applications. It is not intended for use in
industrial applications.
WARNING:
After ten years from initial power up, this
alarm will beep two times every 30 seconds to indicate that it is
time to replace the alarm. Replace the alarm immediately! It
will not detect CO in this condition.
To help identify the date to replace the alarm, an area has
been reserved on the side of the alarm. Write the “replace by”
date (ten years from power up) with a permanent marker in the
area provided.
WARNING:
Installation of this CO alarm is not a
substitute for proper installation, use and maintenance of fuel
burning appliances including appropriate ventilation and
exhaust systems.
Alarm location
CO alarms should be mounted in or near bedrooms and living
areas. We recommend that you install an alarm on each level
of your home.
When choosing your installation locations, make sure you can
hear the alarm from all sleeping areas. If you install only one
CO alarm in your home, install it near bedrooms, not in the
basement or furnace room.
Place the sensor out of reach of children. Under no
circumstances should children be allowed to handle the CO
alarm.
Ideally, an alarm should be installed in every room containing a
fuel-burning appliance and additional alarms should be
installed to ensure that adequate warning is given for
occupants in other rooms, such as in remote rooms in which
the occupant(s) spend considerable time whilst awake and
from which they may not be able hear an alarm in another part
of the premises, and in every sleeping room.
