11.7 Carbon Monoxide Monitoring System
CARBON MONOXIDE IS A LETHAL, TOXIC GAS THAT IS COLORLESS AND ODOR-
LESS. IT IS A DANGEROUS GAS THAT WILL CAUSE DEATH IN CERTAIN LEV-
ELS.
The carbon monoxide detector is in the cabin and warns the
occupants of dangerous accumulation of carbon monoxide gas. It
is automatically activated 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
monoxide 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.
Always make sure the battery switch is “ON” and the power light on the carbon
monoxide detector is lit whenever the cabin is occupied.
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.
A slight buildup of carbon monoxide over several hours causes headache, nausea and other
symptoms that are similar to food poisoning, motion sickness or flu. High concentrations can
