Always keep an eye on the CO content in the air: for optimal environmental conditions.
With CO measuring devices from Testo, you are well equipped – and do your job even safer, more professionally and faster.
The highest permissible concentration of carbon monoxide in the workplace is 30 ppm (parts per million). Escaping carbon monoxide can very quickly accumulate to a life-threatening extent in enclosed and semi-enclosed spaces. A Testo carbon monoxide meter enables reliable detection of this insidious gas.
Can immediately be used at lightning speed without any zeroing phase.
Detects carbon monoxide in the environment, even in the smallest of concentrations.
Easy and safe to handle.
Optical and acoustic alarm if limit values are exceeded.
Carbon monoxide is a combustion gas (harmful gas) that is released when combustion processes are incomplete. The most frequent day-to-day sources of CO are:
Petrol engines
Gas ovens
Heating systems
Solid fuels, such as wood and charcoal.
Carbon monoxide is colourless and odourless and prevents the blood from taking up oxygen when too great a concentration is breathed in. Breathing in a CO concentration of 700 ppm in an enclosed space leads to death after around 3 hours in an adult.
A dangerous gas like carbon monoxide requires measuring instruments which are particularly reliable. To be on the safe side, you have to know which CO meter detects flue gas absolutely reliably. You should take the following into consideration:
In order to detect even low CO concentrations, a CO measuring device should have a CO sensor with high measurement accuracy and a large measuring range. The testo 315-4 warning/measuring instrument is recommended – also ideal for the installation and maintenance of gas boilers.
An easy-to-read display ensures that you can quickly record the measured values and react immediately to an increased CO concentration.
Is a visual warning signal enough? Where CO meters are involved: certainly not. An additional acoustic warning should really be standard for CO measurement. This means safety is still guaranteed, even without being able to see the meter.
CO meters without a zeroing phase are ready for use straight away. Important when you have to be quick. Little tip: keep CO meters on you with a belt clip. This means they are even more quickly to hand for fast checking.
Thanks to its simple and robust design, the testo 317-3 is the ideal tool for absolutely reliable routine measurement of the CO concentration on oil and gas systems. The belt clip on your clothing means it is always to hand.
CO quickly determined: no zeroing phase means the instrument is ready for use straight away.
Always perfectly prepared: thanks to permanent CO probe.
Doubly reliable: gives an optical and acoustic warning when CO is present.
CO measuring range in flue gas or indoor air: 0 to 1,999 ppm.
What ambient parameters would you like to measure?
Do you need reliable, high-precision measuring instruments for more parameters? As market leader, we offer you a diverse range for everything that can be measured:
In addition to carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide is another important parameter in terms of monitoring indoor air quality, thermal comfort level or storage conditions. With a CO2 measuring device from Testo, you are always on the safe side. Our tip: Monitor CO2 and all other important IAQ (indoor air quality) parameters with just one device: the tried-and-tested testo 160 IAQ.
Industrial and environmental noise has to be monitored in order to prevent any harm to health at the workplace and at home. With a sound level meter from Testo, you can reliably determine the standard-compliant sound level – whether indoors or in public places. In the process, you have the choice between simple or complex applications with additional functions.
Light conditions at the workplace are governed by standards and limit values. Use a high-precision Testo lux meter for the optimum lux values in your area of responsibility. And in doing so, count on absolutely perfect operating convenience.
