    We hope you will not experience any problems with the Model 300 but if you do, the built-in tests and diagnostics should allow you to quickly and easily find the problem. In addition, our customer service department is always available to answer your questions.
  • Page 8: Warranty

    If a Product fails to perform to its specifications, Teledyne API shall correct such defect by, in Teledyne API's discretion, repairing or replacing such defective Product or refunding the purchase price of such Product.
  • Page 9: Principle Of Operation

    1.3 Principle of operation The detection and measurement of carbon monoxide in the Model 300 is based on the absorption of Infra Red (IR) radiation by CO molecules at wave lengths near 4.7 microns. In practice, the Model 300 uses a high energy heated element to generate broad-band IR light.
