This manual contains important information for the proper installation and operation of the
carbon monoxide sensor. This device is designed to detect only carbon monoxide from any
combustion source. It is not intended to detect smoke, fire or other gases. Read the entire
manual before proceeding with the installation and keep it for future reference.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is an insidious poison that is released during the combustion of fuel. It is
a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas that is therefore very difficult for humans to detect.
Thousands of people are victims of carbon monoxide each year, and hundreds of them lose their
lives. The substance binds to hemoglobin in the blood and reduces the amount of oxygen
circulating in the body, which can kill in minutes at high CO levels. Carbon monoxide is produced
by incomplete combustion of fuels such as wood, charcoal, coal, heating oil, paraffin, gasoline,
natural gas, propane, butane, etc.
The following symptoms may be related to carbon monoxide poisoning:
35 ppm Maximum allowable concentration for continuous exposure for healthy
adults in any 8-hour period.
200 ppm Slight headache, fatigue, dizziness, nausea after 2-3 hours.
400 ppm Frontal headaches within 1-2 hours, life-threatening after 3 hours.
800 ppm Dizziness, nausea and convulsions within 45 minutes. Unconscious within
2 hours, death within 3 hours.
1600 ppm Headache, dizziness and nausea within 20 minutes. Death within 1 hour.
6400 ppm Headache, dizziness and nausea within 1-2 minutes.
