The CO71A - Monitors, records, and alerts you to the presence of dangerous carbon monoxide in ambient air. The visual display constantly indicates precise quantities while the audible and visual alarms respond to various threshold levels. Carbon Monoxide (CO) - is a lethal poison produced when certain fuels are burned. It can rapidly accumulate even in areas that might appear well ventilated. Because CO is colorless, tasteless, odorless and non-irritating, it can overcome an exposed person without warning. Recognizing early warning signs of CO poisoning is sometimes difficult because early symptoms of CO exposure (headache, dizziness, nausea) are nonspecific and may be mistaken for symptoms of other illnesses and frequently produce weakness and confusion depriving a person of the ability to seek safety. Exposure to CO: Important numbers to remember: 9 ppm Max allowable exposure for living area (ASHRAE standard) 35 ppm Max exposure for 8 hr work day (OSHA) 800 ppm Symptoms within 45 minutes - Death within 2 to 3 hours 12,800 ppm Death within 1-3 minutes. The CO71A Features CO sensor self test, Preset alarms 3-color warning light and Audible alert, MAX capture, Low battery indicator, CO detection to 999 ppm, Backlit display and One button auto zero.
