General Information
The Merlin CO2 detector has a traffic light colour system indicating the carbon dioxide levels in
the area.
The Merlin CO2 detector can be used independently or can work in conjunction with one of
our Merlin gas control systems. If the CO2 reaches alarm level the Merlin CO2 detector would
illuminate ‘High’ and also send a signal to the Merlin gas control system which will in turn close
the gas solenoid valve.
