9. Carbon dioxide levels and guidelines
400PPM Normal outdoor air level
400 ~ 1000PPM Typical level indoors with good ventilation.
NOTE: If CO2levels are low when building is sealed and occupied, check for overventilation
(too much fresh air = energy wasted).
>1000PPM ASHRAE and OSHA recommended maximum level in a closed room.
Considered maximum comfort level in many countries.
>1200PPM Poor air quality - requires ventilation.
>2000PPM According to many studies this level of CO2produces a significant increase in drowsiness,
tiredness, headache lower levels of concentration and increased likelihood of spreading
respiratory viruses like colds, etc.
>5000PPM OSHA and NIOSH first threshold for safety. Maximum allowed concentration within an 8
hour working period.
10. Maintenance
We recommend to manually test CO2Monitor once a month by pressing and holding the test button. Dust is a major
cause of false alarms. Therefore, clean the CO2Monitor once a month. Use a vacuum cleaner to gently remove any
accumulated dust along the sides of the CO2Monitor. Never use a wet cloth or detergent to clean your CO2Monitor.
Clean the device with a soft, damp and lint-free cloth. Make sure that no moisture enters the housing. Do not use any
sprays, solvents, alcohol-based cleaning agents or abrasive cleaners, but only clean water to moisten the cloth.
11. Warnings
This manual contains important safety information about the CO2Monitor.
Read the manual carefully and keep it in a safe place for future reference.
Do not open the device in case it is damaged.
Do not remove any safety signs, stickers or labels from the device.
Keep all safety signs, stickers and labels legible condition.
