Alarms - Macurco CM-E1 User Instructions

The CM-E1 continuously monitors the ambient air at the sensor. If the CM-E1 measures levels of CO greater than the
danger level, the RED light will turn on, the Alarm Relay will switch to actuate the alarm circuits in the control panel, and
the buzzer on CM-E1 units will sound. The CM-E1 is programmed to alarm if the danger levels of carbon monoxide are
exceeded, which are time and concentration-related. The alarm points are: 70 ppm of CO after 60 to 240 minutes, 150
ppm of CO after 10 to 50 minutes, and 400 ppm of CO after 4 to 15 minutes, in accordance with the provisions of UL
Standard 2034.
Individuals with certain medical problems may consider using warning devices that provide audible and visual signals for carbon
monoxide concentrations below 30 ppm. (UL 2034)

The following symptoms are related to CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING and should be discussed with ALL members of the

Mild exposure: Slight headache, nausea, vomiting, fatigue (often described as "Flu-like" symptoms).
-
Medium Exposure: Severe throbbing headache, drowsiness, confusion, fast heart rate.
-
Extreme Exposure: Unconsciousness, convulsions, cardio respiratory failure, and death.
