EC-AT-COB-01 - "Basic" CO (carbon monoxide) Monitor

This monitor has a sensor that warns you when there are ventilation problems in public spaces, school and kindergartens. Good ventilation is essential to a healthy indoor environment - the short-term opening of windows or ventilation is not enough. In closed areas the air will be quickly polluted by the presence of people and equipment such as printers and computers, which will increase the carbon dioxide (CO) level and humidity level. This can cause health problems such as headaches, irritated airways, asthma and allergic reactions. Ensuring constant ventilation is essential to avoid such health problems; good ventilation is to ventilate 24 hours a day.

The Venti-Light is applicable for use in offices and houses, to warn if there a build up of CO.  Carbon Monoxide is given off from the poor combustion of gas, and can lead to asphyxiation within poorly ventilated areas. The relay contact can be used to switch a sounder or alarm when the CO reaches a critical level, click here to see the optional Xenon Beacon .

A general measure of air quality in a room is the CO level, expressed in ppm (parts per million). In a well ventilated area there will be a measured level of <800 ppm, with the upper limit normally being considered to be 1400 ppm. On the basis of the Venti-Light "Basic"'s indication, you can decide to provide additional ventilation to bring the indoor environment back to a healthy level or let the Venti-Light drive a fan or indeed an alarm sounder, through its integrated (normally open) relay contact.
