BRK Model CO250 is a single station carbon monoxide alarm specifically
designed for residential and institutional applications including sleeping rooms of
hospitals, hotels, motels, dormitories, and other multifamily dwellings as defined
in standard NFPA 101. Model CO250 has been fully tested and complies with,
UL2034, NFPA 720, and NFPA 101 and other agencies that model their codes
after the above agencies. It meets building codes where battery operated
carbon monoxide alarms with silence are required and with model building
codes published by the ICC.
BRK Model CO250 is a state of the art carbon monoxide alarm designed to
provide early warning of the presence of carbon monoxide. It features an
electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor, an 85dB horn, a supervised 9V battery
power supply, a full function test switch, a silence feature to silence unwanted
nuisance alarms, a red LED light that indicates DC power or alarm. It also
features a tamper resistant locking pin that locks alarm cover to prevent removal
of battery. Perfect for apartment, dormitory or hotel applications. The compact,
low profile design complements any décor. Battery installation and removal can
occur while the unit is mounted to the ceiling or wall via the hinged cover. When
voltage drops to a pre-set warning level, the horn will “chirp” approximately
once per minute to indicate a fresh battery is needed. To insure the battery is
always replaced properly, the cover is designed to resist closing when the
battery is missing. Designed for wall or
ceiling mounting. Includes
mounting anchors and
screws.
