Carbon Monoxide Analyzer Manual
2.0 System Description
The Pro CO
2
TM
Carbon Dioxide Analyzer measures Carbon Dioxide (CO
2
) levels in gases in the
range of 0 to 2000 parts per million (ppm). It can be used to measure the CO
2
content in all
breathing gas mixes. The Analyzer is designed to verify CO
2
concentration in stored gas
cylinders as well as to monitor continuous flow of gas from a compressor. The Analyzer is a
moisture and impact resistant unit compatible with outdoor and marine environments.
Carbon Dioxide is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas that will not support
life. Exposure to Carbon Dioxide can lead to unconsciousness and death.
The Analyzer is battery powered and includes an
internally mounted Sensor with audible alarm.
The Water-Resistant Case includes a Digital
Display and controls that are environmentally
sealed
The Analyzer uses a Flow Adapter Cap and
Flexible tubing to deliver sample gas to the
Sensor. Pressurized gases must be regulated to
avoid damage to the analyzer. Use of this
Analyzer in a hyperbaric chamber will void the
owner’s warranty.
The Analyzer comes in a high impact storage
case. It is ready for use after calibration with an
appropriate certified calibration gas.
This analyzer is designed for use at atmospheric pressures only. It is not designed for
exposures in a hyperbaric chamber. Use of this analyzer in a hyperbaric chamber will
result in incorrect readings and may damage the unit.
Although the Analyzer is a rugged instrument, careless handling or abuse may result in
damage to the Analyzer resulting in inaccurate gas analysis. Inaccurate gas analysis can
lead to serious personal injury or death.
Extreme CO
2
exposure levels directed at the Analyzer sensor may damage the sensor.
