Description
Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless, tasteless and highly toxic gas that is produced when fuels, such as wood, gasoline, charcoal and oil, are burned with insufficient air. The majority of residential and commercial fatalities caused from these fuels come from heating systems, power tools and charcoal grills.
If carbon monxide is detected, the CO detector will alert residents by sounding and flashing a temp-4 signal alarm. Protection can be guaranteed 24/7 by a central station, regardless of whether residents are away from home, sleeping or already suffering from the effects of CO.
The CO detector is specifically designed for system operation. This means the detector is fully listed to UL 2075, offering a code required trouble relay, which sends a sesnor failure or end-of-life signal to the control panel and the central station, as well as SEMS-type terminal Philips-head screws, which provide a quicker and more positive wiring connection and code required wiring supervision. Also, the CO detector offers a low current draw, allowing more detectors to be connected to the panel without having to purchase a more expensive panel or an extra power supply.
