Description:
This compact carbon monoxide alarm monitors indoor CO levels continuously and alerts occupants with a loud audible alarm and clear visual feedback, making it suitable for bedrooms, kitchens and caravans. It includes a long-life sealed battery rated for 10 years and an LCD that shows real-time CO concentration, helping you spot rising levels quickly.
Key Points
The unit complies with EN 50291 and UKCA standards and sounds an 85 dB alarm when dangerous carbon monoxide levels are detected. The device has three LED indicators that show normal operation, fault and alarm states, and the LCD display remains readable at zero with a backlight for low-light checks. Installation is flexible, with options to wall-mount or place on a flat surface for domestic rooms, holiday accommodation and RV use. Consider that the alarm is battery sealed and maintenance-free, so the battery cannot be replaced but is intended to last the device lifetime according to the manufacturer.

Usage Recommendations
Position the detector at breathing height in sleeping areas or near fuel-burning appliances for the most relevant readings. Avoid installing it directly above cookers or boilers where transient combustion fumes could trigger nuisance alarms. Test the alarm regularly using the test function and note that the sealed battery means there is no user-replaceable power cell, so replacement of the whole unit will be required after its service life.
Advantages
The integrated 10-year sealed battery reduces the need for ongoing maintenance and eliminates frequent battery changes, which can be convenient for hard-to-reach locations. The LCD gives a continuous visual readout of CO levels so you can monitor trends at a glance, while the trio of LED colours provides immediate reassurance about operational status. The combination of certifications and a loud 85 dB alert offers measurable safety performance according to recognised standards.
