CO-USB Carbon Monoxide Detector Alarm (Original)
In our effort to enhance safety in aviation, we've introduced the CO-USB Carbon Monoxide Alarm, a simple device that provides a brilliant and reliable indication of CO poisoning. Per FAA guidelines, it flashes bright RED at 41 PPM. For reference, see Carbon Monoxide, a Deadly Menace (faa.gov).
It features a breakthrough electrochemical sensor that provides excellent anti-interference from other gases.
Power it up from any USB port, even your Android or late-model iPhone (15 or later). It's priced like a toy but is very serious in its specifications. With a 3-year warranty and low power consumption, you can depend on its reliability.
It's part of our commitment to prioritize affordability, ease of use, simplicity, and reliability—all crucial features for enhancing safety in aviation.
It also includes a serial port for easy OEM integration that can be programmed to any alarm value and offers continuous output of CO value via an always broadcasting serial line.
If you're looking for the best panel installation, check out the CO-USB-UP, which reverses the orientation of the LED to face upward.
Due to high demand, orders on our website may take up to 30 days to ship. Order now to have it ready for your fall and winter flying adventures.
