Carbon Monoxide Detector is fast enough for walk-around testing
The SCM3 Carbon Monoxide Detector from Fieldpiece includes a three-pin electrochemical sensor that’s fast enough for walk-around tests. Visual and audio alerts increase proportionally in frequency as the concentration of CO increases. The dual-display LCD is lit by a bright blue backlight for added visibility in dark places. The familiar Fieldpiece ergonomic shape and rubber boot make it easy to hold and tough enough for HVAC field service. Use with the optional AOXP2 aspirator pump for flue CO tests.
