ABUS Security-Center COWM510 koolmonoxidemelder met LCD-display – wit (EN 50291-1)

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a silent and invisible threat. It has no smell, no taste, and no colour, yet exposure to even moderate levels can cause headaches, dizziness, and in worst cases, fatal poisoning. The ABUS COWM510 Carbon Monoxide Detector keeps a constant watch over your living space, using an advanced electrochemical sensor to detect dangerous CO concentrations and alert you with a piercing 85 dB alarm.

Who is it for

This standalone detector is ideal for bedrooms, living rooms, hallways, holiday homes, caravans, and any area with combustion appliances such as boilers, gas fires, stoves, or open fireplaces. Whether you are a homeowner, landlord, or tenant, installing a CO alarm is one of the most important safety steps you can take.

Tips

For maximum protection, install at least one CO alarm on every floor, especially outside sleeping areas. Place the detector at head height or at least 1.5 metres above the floor, and test it weekly by pressing the test button. Replace the device after 10 years, even if it still appears to work.
