What is the normal range of carbon monoxide detector?

Publication Date:2021/12/20

Under normal circumstances, when inhaling excessive carbon monoxide gas, multiple organs of the human body will be hypoxic, resulting in tissue damage or even death. Therefore, people have strengthened the prevention of carbon monoxide. Whether it is industrial manufacturing or household gas, most places have installed carbon monoxide detectors to deal with the hazards caused by carbon monoxide leakage, so that when the carbon monoxide in the air reaches a certain concentration, The carbon monoxide detector will alarm to remind people to ventilate and breathe to prevent CO poisoning. Do you know the normal range of CO detector ? The following is an introduction by Yi Yuntian:



The concentration of carbon monoxide in the air can cause harm to the human body:


1. The content of carbon monoxide in the air reaches 50ppm, and adults are allowed to be in it. If the content exceeds this content, it will cause harm to human body;


2. The content of carbon monoxide in the air reaches 200ppm. Adults will have slight headache, dizziness, nausea and other adverse symptoms after being in the air for 2-3 hours;


3. The content of carbon monoxide in the air reaches 400ppm, and adults will have forehead pain within 2 hours after being in it, and their lives will be in danger after 3 hours;


4. The content of carbon monoxide in the air reaches 800ppm. Adults have headache and nausea within 45 minutes and die within 2-3 hours;


5, the content of carbon monoxide in the air reaches 1600ppm, headache and nausea within 20 minutes, and death within 1 hour;


From the above data, it can be seen that as long as the CO content in the air exceeds 50ppm, it will cause harm to human body.


The places that are prone to carbon monoxide are as follows:


1. family


display, non-occupational CO poisoning occurs mainly in families, accounting for 95, 8% of all non-occupational CO poisoning events.The reasons are as follows:


1. Use coal stoves, charcoal fires, adobe beds, fire walls and other heating methods in poorly ventilated environments.


2. Gas and gas water heaters are improperly used, installed, or of substandard quality.


3. Gas leakage from gas stove or gas pipeline, etc.


2. other sites


other sites Non-occupational carbon monoxide poisoning the main risk factors include:


1. Improper use, installation or maintenance of heating stoves, gas and gas equipment and ventilation devices in catering and accommodation service units such as collective canteens, restaurants and hotels.


2. Use small oil and steam generators in narrow and airtight garages or underground rooms.


3. Vehicle exhaust emissions, long-term airtight air-conditioned vehicles, etc.


In summary, we can see that the normal range of the carbon monoxide detector is within 50ppm, which is relatively safe. Once this range is exceeded, we need to use a carbon monoxide detector.Like Yiyuntian's carbon monoxide detector, the detection range is optional in the range of 0~50, 100, 500, 1000, 2000, 5000, 10000, 100000ppm, 100 LEL and 100 Vol. The appropriate range can be selected according to specific conditions, so as to better ensure your personal safety.
