The included accessories

View of the package

The 5DCO carbon monoxide detector with LCD display is used for continuous monitoring of premises exposed to the danger of this poisonous gas. Every 15 seconds the device shows current level of carbon monoxide in the range of 0 to 999 PPM. The sensor is equipped with optical (red LED) and acoustic signaling (85 dB alarm sound) which automatically starts when a threat is detected. Its TEST / RESET button is used for verifying all functions of the sensor, and PEAK LEVEL button allows for reading the maximum value of CO concentration stored in the memory of the sensor.

Thanks to the fact that the unit is battery-powered, it is independent from the AC power network and can be installed in any suitable place. The user is informed on low battery or a malfunction by a sound signal and relevant message on the LCD. The device is covered by a 7-year warranty. During that time, it does not require any calibration (the maintenance is only limited to battery exchange). After 7-year protection period the unit has to be replaced by a new one.

To ensure proper operation of the sensors and to avoid false alarms, the detectors should not be installed in areas exposed to dust, dirt, grease or household chemicals. It is necessary to avoid places where the temperature may exceed the operating range (attics, garages etc) and keep the devices away (min. 1.8 m) from any appliance that may be a source of CO. False alarms can also be triggered after placing the devices near chimney or ventilation grilles, fireplaces, ceiling fans, doors, windows and wherever their operation may be affected by the movement of fresh air or changing weather conditions. The detectors cannot be covered by furniture, curtains or other objects that may block the access of air to the sensors.
