Description

The 5800CO is a 3V battery powered wireless carbon monoxide (CO) detector intended for use with Honeywell Home alarm systems that support 5800 Series wireless devices. It provides early warning when its electrochemical sensing technology measures carbon monoxide levels in the air. The 5800CO is specifically designed for system operation and is fully listed to UL 2075 as a system supervised detector.* It contains a piezoelectric horn which generates the ANSI S3.41 temporal 4 pattern in an alarm condition.

The detector consists of an electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor assembly coupled with a wireless transmitter. The transmitter can send alarm, trouble, end-of-life, tamper and low battery condition messages to the alarm panel.

Since there are no holes to drill or wires to run, you can preserve the beauty of the home or building while protecting its occupants from harmful carbon monoxide gas. The 5800CO is an ideal carbon monoxide detector for difficult to wire locations, applications where room aesthetics are critical or where hazardous materials exist.

Features & Benefits:

• Robust RF field strength allows the distance between the detector and receiver to be significantly increased without the need for a repeater
• Removable detector cover and chamber top allows quick and easy cleaning without disassembling the detector head
• Smart Check signal is sent to the control panel when the detector requires cleaning, allowing a regular, non-emergency service call to clean the detector before it goes into alarm
• Drift compensation virtually eliminates nuisance alarms from long-term dust build-up by automatically adjusting sensitivity
• Additional LED status indicators facilitate identifying between alarm or trouble conditions with green and red LED status indicators
• Sturdy mounting base allows easy installation on uneven surfaces such as stucco. The mounting base has larger mounting ports, which accommodate drywall anchors for easy surface mounting.
• Utilizes one long-life 3V lithium battery
• Microcontroller runs on a 4.0 MHz clock
• Horn operates at 3.3 KHz with sound pressure level of 85 dBA at 10 ft
• Built-in wireless transmitter, temporal code 3 sounder

Certifications:

• Approved UL Listings for Residential and Commercial Applications
• Maintenance signal fully complies with the sensitivity test requirement specified in NFPA 72, 7-2.2 and is approved by UL

What is Carbon Monoxide and How Can it Harm Consumers?
Carbon monoxide (CO) is an odorless, colorless, tasteless and highly toxic gas that is produced when fuels such as wood, gasoline, charcoal and oil are burned with insufficient air. The majority of residential and light commercial fatalities caused from these fuels come from heating systems, engine powered tools and charcoal grills. Carbon monoxide is harmful when inhaled because it displaces oxygen in the blood and deprives the heart, brain and other vital organs of oxygen. Large amounts of CO can overcome a person in minutes without warning—causing them to lose consciousness and suffocate.

The 5800CO is designed to warn the end-user well before the CO reaches a fatal level. The detector’s CO sensitivity is evaluated to UL 2034.
