The TG-981T CO sensor kit is intended for medical purposes to measure the concentration of expired CO
2
in a gas mixture of a patient and send the processed digital data such as end tidal CO
respiration rate to the Rescue LIFE
The mainstream CO measurement principle is based on the fact that CO
2
infrared light well. Infrared light is emitted from the emitter on the CO
sensor cell where some is absorbed by CO
detector. The CO concentration in the respiration is calculated from the ratio of unabsorbed infrared light
2
that passed through the CO
sensor cell (single wave spectroscopic method).

in the cell, then the unabsorbed light is detected by the

sensor cell and reference infrared light that does not go through the CO

WARNING - Never disassemble or modify the CO
sensor kit is disassembled or modified, the patient and operator may
receive electrical shock or skin burn.
WARNING – Do not diagnose a patient based only on data acquired by
the connected instrument. Overall judgement must be performed by a
physician who understands the features and limitations.
CAUTION – Never autoclave or perform EOG gas sterilization for the CO
sensor kit because this damages the airway adapter and the CO
and safety cannot be guaranteed.
