The Carbon Monoxide Alarm (continued)

According to Underwriters Laboratories Inc. UL2034, Section 1.2: “Carbon monoxide alarms covered by these requirements are intended to respond to the presence of carbon monoxide from sources such as, but not limited to, exhaust from internal-combustion engines, abnormal operation of fuel-fired appliances, and fireplaces. Carbon monoxide alarms are intended to alarm at carbon monoxide levels below those that could cause a loss of ability to react to the dangers of carbon monoxide exposure.

This CO alarm monitors the air, and is designed to alarm before CO levels become life threatening. This allows you precious time to leave the house and correct the problem. This is only possible if alarms are located, installed, and maintained as described in this manual.

This CO alarm is designed to alert you to

a potentially dangerous build-up of CO over time. It cannot fix a CO problem, and it cannot identify a specific source of CO. The company shall not be obligated to pay for any carbon monoxide investigation or service call conducted by a Fire Department, or licensed investigator or repairman, arranged by the homeowner in response to an alarm.

Additionally, the detector has a convenient end-of-life signal, alerting users when it’s time to replace the unit itself, ensuring that safety is never compromised.

Another important technology integrated into the SC1000BN is its smart chip technology. This enables the detector to accurately differentiate between various potential threats, reducing false alarms and providing peace of mind to users. The device is also equipped with a loud 85-decibel alarm that ensures occupants are promptly alerted in case of an emergency.

Installation of the SC1000BN is straightforward, with a low-profile design that blends seamlessly into any environment. The unit can be mounted on ceilings or walls, and its aesthetic design complements modern home decor. Furthermore, the detector meets the strictest safety standards, including certification from Underwriters Laboratories (UL), ensuring reliability and efficacy.

In addition to its primary functions, the SC1000BN also features a test/silence button that allows users to check the functionality of the unit or silence false alarms without removing the battery. The combination of advanced detection methods, long-lasting power, and user-friendly features makes the BRK electronic SC1000BN an essential device for enhancing safety and promoting peace of mind in any space.
