CO alarms – carbon monoxide alarms from Aico

Carbon Monoxide (CO; see more about CO poisoning), is a particularly insidious gas. It is a killer. The naked eye can’t see it, it does not smell, it has no taste. The need for a reliable mains powered alarm that will operate even in the event of a mains failure is obvious. Ei261ENRC Mains Powered CO Alarm with Rechargeable Lithium Cells and Replaceable CO Sensor is one of the most viable and recommended solutions from Aico.

The Ei professional range includes fully featured product usually specified by Local Authorities and Landlords and less sophisticated product where duty of care is not so much of an issue and where the mains supply is more likely to be continuous and/or regular battery maintenance is known to be reliably carried out.

The Ei261ENRC is the top of the range product. Current sensor technology used by all manufacturers of CO alarms has a limited life cycle; the sensors cannot be relied upon after a period of 5/6 years. The Ei261ENRC offers a replacement sensor feature, thereby increasing the life cycle of the product to ten years.
