Carbon Monoxide personnel monitor

  | prices | manual |
Each year hundreds of people across Europe., are poisoned by the toxic gas Carbon Monoxide (CO). These people include small airplane pilots, recreational boaters, truck drivers, students, fire fighters, miners,  homeowners and renters, and even families on vacation. But the lives this toxic gas takes could be saved through education, awareness, and simple protection.

Introducing Pocket CO Model 200, the world's smallest, least expensive, renewable Carbon Monoxide detector. Designed by leading technologists and engineers in the air quality and gas detection industry, and built using cutting edge nanotechnology,  Pocket CO is advanced enough for use by industry professionals but still incredibly simple to operate. Tiny enough to fit on a keychain, and weighing under 30g, Pocket CO is an easy and affordable way to detect and monitor CO at home, away, or on the job.

Pocket CO Features and Information:

  • Loud, 85dB alarm and bright red light (vibrator also available).
  • Simple, one button operation.
  • Easy to read digital display, showing concentration of CO in parts-per-million (PPM).
  • Reports dosimetry information, such as maximum exposure, and average exposure (TWA) over a period of up to 8 hours.
  • Small enough to fit on a keychain. Light enough to take anywhere!
  • Lifetime sensor warranty and replaceable battery, allowing for many years of use.

CO Health Risk Information

Carbon Monoxide (CO)
is an odourless, tasteless gas produced by incomplete burning of fuels including gasoline, oil, and wood. When breathed, it deprives the blood stream of oxygen. Breathing a large enough concentration of CO can lead to illness, and even death. Learn more about CO from the links below, or read the full article on this "silent killer".
