Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas, which is produced during the combustion process and is easily absorbed into the bloodstream when inhaled. Dangerous concentrations of carbon monoxide can permanently damage the body and, in the worst case, can even lead to death. The greatest danger exists in places with poorly functioning ventilation, where the amount of air needed for the combustion process is too low. Carbon monoxide can be produced in rooms equipped with heating appliances, such as gas heaters, fireplaces, gas, oil and coal boilers, etc. There are several thousand carbon monoxide-related accidents in Poland every year. The FireAngel FA3820, a carbon monoxide detector, is equipped with the latest electrochemical sensor, which was developed at the PACE-Sensor plant in Canada, part of the FireAngel concern. When even a small amount of carbon monoxide is present, the detector will inform users with a clear optical signal and a loud 85 dB audible alarm - already audible at a distance of 1 m. The built-in self-monitoring system continuously checks the operation of the unit and, if necessary, will signal if the unit is not working correctly. Independently, the user can test the sensor himself using the large TEST/RESET button, which also allows the alarm to be silenced if necessary. The sensor has a built-in 10-year lithium battery, which does not need to be replaced or recharged for the entire operating period. The unit will start notifying the user of the end of life 30 days before it is fully discharged. The FireAngel FA3820 carbon monoxide detector comes with a 10-year warranty. The FireAngel FA3820 carbon monoxide detector meets the highest safety requirements, as evidenced by the EN50291-1:2018 and EN50291-2:2019 certificates of compliance. The FireAngel FA3820 detector is one of the few on the market that also meets the requirements of the latest Polish building products regulations, as evidenced by the Building Mark B. Plastic. Fire-resistant ABS.
