User's Guide Carbon Monoxide Meter Model CO10 Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of the Extech C010 Carbon Monoxide Meter. The CO10 measures and displays CO concentrations between 0 and 1000 parts per million (ppm).
Safety Information Carbon monoxide is life threatening even at relatively low concentrations; learn and recognize the effects of CO poisoning (see Table below). Do not use this meter as a personal safety monitoring device.
Operation MEASUREMENTS IMPORTANT: Ensure that the meter is turned on in an area free of CO. If not, the meter will read incorrectly when subsequently measuring CO. 1. Press the ON/OFF button to turn the meter on. Allow time for the meter to perform the self test and for the display to settle. 2. To use the meter, trace the CO10 around the area of the suspected leak. 3. The meter will indicate the presence of CO (in ppm) on the LCD display.
