Carbon monoxide is life threatening even at relatively low concentrations; learn and recognize the effects of CO poisoning (see Table below).
Do not use this meter as a personal safety monitoring device.
Effects of CO poisoning
0-1 PPM | Normal background levels |
9 PPM | Maximum indoor air quality level |
50 PPM | Maximum 8 hour average exposure level |
200 PPM | Mild headache, fatigue, nausea and dizziness |
400 PPM | Frontal headache, life threatening after 3 hours |
800 PPM | Dizziness, nausea, convulsions, DEATH WITHIN 2 TO 3 HOURS |
1600 PPM | Nausea within 20 minutes, DEATH WITHIN 1 HOUR |
12800 PPM | DEATH WITHIN 2 TO 3 MINUTES |
Ensure that the meter is turned on in an area free of CO. If not, the meter will read incorrectly when subsequently measuring CO.
