Carbon Monoxide Alarm Ei204EN Product Specification

Product Description

The Ei204EN is a Carbon Monoxide (CO) alarm powered by 3 x AA alkaline batteries. The CO alarm is housed in an attractive slim-line casing and can be easily secured to a wall or ceiling - the fittings are supplied.

The 204EN CO alarm uses a proven electrochemical cell type sensor which checks CO concentration every 50 seconds. Prior to delivery all units are individually calibrated and tested in CO gas in order to ensure accuracy. The CO alarm is guaranteed for two years.

The alarm has to be replaced after 5 years.

An easy to use Test/Hush button allows the user to check that the horn and electronics are working and to silence nuisance alarms.

Operation

• The green indicator will flash every 45 seconds to indicate that the battery supply is working
• The horn will sound and the red indicator will flash at different speeds to indicate the presence of various levels of CO gas - slow flash indicating low levels and rapid flash to indicate high levels
• The horn will beep and the amber indicator flash every 40 seconds to indicate a fault
• The horn will beep and the green indicator flash every 45 seconds to indicate that the batteries are depleted
• On power up the green, red and amber lights each flash once - after 20 seconds, the green light flashes every 4 seconds. At the end of the warm up the red light flashes once
