2.0 System Description
The Pro COTM Carbon Monoxide Analyzer measures carbon monoxide (CO) levels in gases
in the range of 0 to 100 parts per million (ppm). It can be used to measure the CO content in
gas mixes that may be contaminated due to the introduction of CO from internal combustion
engines or other devices where CO is a byproduct. The Analyzer is designed to verify CO
concentration in stored gas cylinders as well as to monitor enclosed spaces. The Analyzer is
a water and impact resistant unit compatible with outdoor and marine environments.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas that will not support life.
Exposure to carbon monoxide can lead to unconsciousness and death.
The Analyzer is battery powered and includes an
internally mounted Sensor with audible alarm. The
Resistant
Water-Resistant Case includes a Digital Display and
controls that are environmentally sealed
The Analyzer uses a Flow Adapter Cap and Flexible
tubing to deliver sample gas to the Sensor.
Pressurized gases must be regulated to avoid
damage to the analyzer. Use of this Analyzer in a
hyperbaric chamber will void the owner’s warranty.
The Analyzer comes in a high impact storage case.
It is ready for use after calibrati on w i th an
appropriate certified calibration gas.
Adapter Cap
Over Sensor
Face
This analyzer is designed for use at atmospheric pressures only. It is not designed for
exposures in a hyperbaric chamber. Use of this analyzer in a hyperbaric chamber will
result in incorrect readings and may damage the unit.
Although the Analyzer is a rugged instrument, careless handling or abuse may res ult
in damage to the Analyzer resulting in inaccurate gas analysis. Inaccurate gas analysis
can lead to serious personal injury or death.
Extreme CO exposure levels directed at the Analyzer sensor may damage the sensor.
Don’t test the sensor in the direct flow of any engine mufflers/exhausts or any other
known high concentrations of CO.

2.3. Alarm
The Analyzer includes an audible alarm that is activated when the Sensor reaches 10 ppm
CO or user programmed level. The alarm will not clear until the concentration of CO drops
below 10 ppm or user programmed level.
2.4. Sensor
The Analyzer uses an electrochemical CO Sensor to measure CO content in gases. The
Sensor is disposable and us er-replaceable, with a life expectancy of up to 24 months
depending on usage. The Sensor is desi g ned for use at atmospheric pressure (0 psi). The
gas mixture to be analyzed must be regulated accordingly, and any potential for pressure or
vacuum must be avoided.
2.5. Batteries
One standard 9-volt battery or rechargeable Li thi um bat ter y provides power. The battery is
located inside the Analyzer and is user-replaceable. The battery should be removed any time
the Analyzer will be stored without use for extended periods of time. Screen will blink
alternately from “000” to “bAt” at start up when battery is low.

3.0 Calibration
Analyzer calibration must be verified on a weekly basis. Improper calibration may
result in an incorrect reading, exposing the user to dangerous levels of carbon
monoxide. Exposure to carbon monoxide can lead to unconsciousness and death.
This Analyzer must always be checked against a calibrat io n gas and used with gases
regulated and supplied at atmospheric pressure (0 psi). Use of gases at higher
pressures may result in incorrect readings and may damage the Analyzer. Incorrect
readings may expose the user to high levels of carbon monoxide resulting in personal
injury or death.
Checking Calibration or use of the Analyzer with a low battery may result in inaccurate
readings. Inaccurate gas analysis can lead to serious personal injury or death.
If the Analyzer has been subjected to a recent change in ambient temperature, allow it
to stabilize for one hour before checking calibration.
Verify calibration on a weekly basis. Breathing gas applications require the use of a certified
CO calibration gas with a 10 ppm concentration and flow rate of 1 L/min. The equi pm ent to
produce this flow is available from Nuvair. See Spares and Accessories section.
To assure the greatest accuracy for other applications, use the calibration gas concentration
closest to the expected concentration in the gas being measured.

Pro CO Carbon Monoxide Analyzer
The Pro COTM can be used to monitor an enclosed s pace or to analyze a regulated gas
sample flow, the contents of a gas cylinder, or the flow from a regulator:
• If monitoring an enclosed space, simply remove the Flow Adapter Cap to expose the
Sensor face to the atmospher e and al l ow the display reading to stabilize.
• If analyzing a gas flow, the Sample Flow Method is the preferred method. The flow rate
must equal .5 to 3 L/min at atmospheric pressure. To produce this flow, a Flow Restrictor
and Regulator may be required. Contact Nuvair if you need assistance.
4.1. Programming Procedures
Keep the Prog button pressed for more than two seconds and then release the button.
“Pr” should display for two seconds and then the display will change to AL 1 and
alternate with the 3 digit set value.
It is possible to program:
o AL 1 First alarm point expressed in ppm of Carbon Monoxide concentration
o AL 2 Second alarm point expressed in ppm of Carbon Monoxide concentration
o FSC Value expressed in ppm of Carbon Monoxide concentration corresponding
to the current output full scale value (20mA). 4mA always correspond to zero
ppm CO concentration.
o nA Conversion value of Carbon Monoxide sensor
o Fct Gain factor
o CAL CO concentration in the calibration test gas to be used
At the end of the programming procedure the display will show “End” and the
instrument will display the Carbon Monoxide content in the gas mix or “000” if not
attached to a CO gas mix.
