Thank you for purchasing this portable
meter. This device measures CO
levels, air temperature and humidity.
It is an ideal instrument for indoor air
quality (IAQ) diagnostics.
ppm
The portable CO meter uses NDIR (non-
2

dispersive infrared) technology to ensure
the reliability and long term stability.

POWER SUPPLY
The meter is powered by either 4 AA
batteries or a DC adaptor(9V/1A output).
Install the batteries into the battery
compartment on the rear and make sure
they are in correct polarity and good
contact.
nd
“Lob” will appear on the LCD .
And beeper sounds.

When an adaptor is used, it will
cut off the power supply from batteries.
The adaptor can’t be used as a battery
charger.
When battery voltage gets low, a
(Fig.1)
The CO sensor
2
can’t work under low voltage, so it beeps
to indicate failed CO measurement
2
(press any key but to stop the beeps)
and the readings won’t be displayed.
Please replace with fresh b ies or
connect with an adaptor.

OPERATION
Press to turn the meter on and off.
At power up, it emits a short beep and
performs 30 seconds countdown(Fig.2)
for meter warm up, then enters normal
mode with current CO , temperatures,

TAKING MEASUREMENT
Press to switch temperatures
display. The lower left display will cycle
from air temperature, dew point temp.
(Fig.4), and wet bulb temp.(Fig.5).
The meter starts measurement when
power on and update readings every
second. In the condition of operating
environment change (ex. from high to
low temp.), it takes 30 sec to respond
for CO sensor and 30 minutes for RH.

NOTE: Do not hold the meter close to
face, breathing on meter affects CO
