Carbon Monoxide (CO) is a toxic, odorless, and tasteless gas produced by the
incomplete combustion of gasoline, kerosene, natural gas, butane, propane, fuel
oil, wood, coal, and other fossil fuels. Dangerous levels of CO can be produced
by internal combustion engines or from any poorly vented or improperly adjusted
fuel-burning appliance. Exposure to CO may cause sickness, headaches, or even
death.
This Carbon Monoxide Detector can save a pilot's
life, especially when flying with the heater on, by warning of the presence of
CO in the cockpit - the spot will turn gray/black when CO is in the air. The spot
on the detector returns to normal color after it is exposed to fresh air.
You can use this CO-DETECTOR as your personal and portable CO detection
device. With the adhesive back, stick it on the panel or dash for a
semi-permanent installation, or wear it on an ID badge or on a lanyard. Unopened
CO-Detectors have a shelf life of 3 years, indicated by the
expiration date on the package. Once removed from the packaging, the CO-Detector
will last for 12 months.
Uses include:
- Airplanes
- Cars
- Fuel Trucks
- Grass Cutting Equipment
- Tugs
- Campers
- And More!
CAUTION: Detector will be damaged by the presence of halogens
(iodine, chlorine, bromine), ammoniac and nitrous gases. Do not use near diesel
engines. Harsh direct sunlight will tend to bleach out indicator spot and
shorten useful life.
