INSTALLATION NOTES
1. One sensor per 5000 square feet (approximately).
2. Mount CM-21A four to five feet above the floor.
3. See applicable building code for fan size vs air
changes per periods of time.
4. Make sure there are air inlets to provide
adequate air flow throughout the building.

GAS & SPECIALTY SENSORS
DESCRIPTION
KCO Series Carbon Monoxide Sensors are available
in analog or relay versions. The sensors are provided in
heavy-duty steel enclosures, and the sensors use low-
temperature components that are ideal for open parking
garages in cold climates.
FEATURES
• Two-stage alarming (KCO-R)
• 0-200 ppm 4-20 mA output (KCO-A)
• Microprocessor-controlled recalibration (KCO-A)
• Heavy-duty enclosures
• Operating temperature down to -4°F (-20°C)
• Low-temperature option available -20°F (-29°C)
• Temperature and humidity compensated
KCO-R
The KCO-R is a two-stage carbon monoxide sensor with a relay output for each stage. If the CO level rises above
the warning stage setpoint for over 30 seconds, the warning relay, amber warning LED, and a three-minute mini-
mum “on” timer will activate. Once below the setpoint, the relay and LED will reset. If the concentration continues to
rise and exceeds the alarm stage setpoint for 10 minutes, the alarm stage relay and red LED will activate.
Calibration of the unit requires the application of a hydrated test gas.
KCO-A
The KCO-A is a microprocessor-controlled sensor with a 4-20 mA analog output based on a 0-200 ppm sensing
range. The microprocessor controls the heating of the sensor and subsequent reading of the CO level. The micro-
processor compensates for any drift in the sensor over time. The microprocessor system includes self-diagnostic,
self-restarting, and remote failure reporting. The output signal will drop below 4 mA if a fault is discovered. If power
problems cause the unit to malfunction, the unit will self-check and restart. Calibration of the unit requires the appli-
cation of a hydrated test gas, and the push of a button performs the recalibration.

GAS & SPECIALTY SENSORS
The KCO Series senses levels of CO for up to 5000 ft2(465m2) of coverage if there is normal air circulation within
the area. Mount on a wall or column approximately 5' (1.52m) above the floor. The sensors should not be mounted
in corners where airflow could be restricted.
