10.3 Carbon Monoxide Detector
A carbon monoxide (CO) detector is installed in the cabin on the rear bulkhead. If excess carbon
monoxide fumes are detected, an audible beeping will sound indicating the presence of the toxic
gas.
The carbon monoxide detector warns the occupants of dangerous
accumulation of carbon monoxide gas. It is automatically acti-
vated whenever the cabin DC breaker panel is energized. Upon
power up, the green power indicator will flash for ten to fifteen
minutes. The feature indicates the unit is in its warm-up stage. The
green power indicator will stop flashing when the sensor has
reached optimum operating temperature. The power indicator will
then switch from flashing green to solid green.
This device uses a micro controller to continuously measure and
accumulate CO levels. Should a very high level of carbon monox-
ide occur, the alarm will sound within a few minutes. However,
if small quantities of CO are present or high levels are short-lived,
the detector will accumulate the information and determine when
an alarm level has been reached.
Carbon monoxide (CO), a by-product of combustion, is invisible, tasteless, odorless, and is
produced by all engines, heating and cooking appliances. The most common sources of CO on
boats are gasoline engines and auxiliary generators and propane or butane stoves. These produce
large amounts of CO and should never be operated while sleeping.
Please read the owner's manual supplied by the detector manufacturer for operation instructions
and additional information regarding the hazards of carbon monoxide gas. Also read more about
carbon monoxide, carbon monoxide detectors, and proper ventilation in the Ventilation Systems
and Safety Equipment chapters in this manual. If you did not receive a manual for your carbon
monoxide detector, please contact Pursuit Customer Relations.
ACTUATION OF THE CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR INDICATES THE PRES-
ENCE OF CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) WHICH CAN BE FATAL. EVACUATE THE
CABIN IMMEDIATELY. DO A HEAD COUNT TO CHECK THAT ALL PERSONS ARE
ACCOUNTED FOR. DO NOT REENTER THE CABIN UNTIL IT HAS BEEN AIRED
OUT AND THE PROBLEM FOUND AND CORRECTED.
CO POISONING PRODUCES FLU-LIKE SYMPTOMS: WATERY AND ITCHY EYES,
HEADACHES, AND FATIGUE. YOU CAN'T SEE IT AND YOU CAN'T SMELL IT.
IT'S AN INVISIBLE KILLER.
