SYSTEMSENSOR CO1224

CO1224
Carbon Monoxide
Detector
System Sensor’s CO1224 provides early warning when
its electrochemical sensing technology accurately
measures carbon monoxide levels in the air.
Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless, tasteless and highly
toxic gas that is produced when fuels, such as wood, gasoline,
charcoal and oil, are burned with insufficient air. The majority of
residential and commercial fatalities caused from these fuels come
from heating systems, power tools and charcoal grills.
If carbon monoxide is detected, the CO1224 will alert residents
by sounding and flashing a temp-4 signal alarm. Protection is
guaranteed 24/7 by a central station, regardless of whether residents
are away from home, sleeping or already suffering from the effects
of CO.
Features
• Full compliance with UL 2075
• A code required trouble relay
• Wiring supervision with SEMS terminals
• A six-year end-of-life timer
• 12/24 VDC
• A current draw of 20mA in standby and 40mA in alarm
• Versatile mounting for wall and ceiling
• Electrochemical sensing technology
The CO1224 is specifically designed for system operation. This means
the detector is fully listed to UL 2075, offering a code required
trouble relay, which sends a sensor failure or end-of-life signal to
the control panel and the central station, as well as SEMS-type
terminal Philips-head screws, which provide a quicker and more
positive wiring connection and code required wiring supervision.
Also, the CO1224 offers a low current draw, allowing more detectors
to be connected to the panel without having to purchase a more
expensive panel or an extra power supply.
Because the CO1224 is a 12/24 VDC detector, it will operate on most
industry security or fire alarm control panels.

Specifications
Architectural/Engineering Specifications
Carbon monoxide detector shall be a System Sensor model number CO1224, listed to Underwriters Laboratories UL 2075 for Gas and Vapor Detectors and
Sensors. The detector shall be equipped with a sounder and a trouble relay. The detector’s base shall be able to mount to a single-gang electrical box or direct
(surface) mount to the wall or ceiling. Wiring connections shall be made by means of SEMS screws. The detector shall provide dual color LED indication, which
blinks to indicate normal standby, alarm, or end-of-life. When the sensor supervision is in a trouble condition, the detector shall send a trouble signal to the
panel. When the detector gives a trouble or end-of-life signal, the detector shall be replaced.

Hush Feature:Pushing the Test/Hush button will silence the
sounder for 5 minutes.
Trouble Feature:When the detector is in a trouble condition, it
will send a trouble signal to the panel.
End-of-life Timer: After the sensor inside the detector has reached
the end of its useful life, a trouble signal will be
sent to the panel. This will indicate that it is time
to replace the detector. An electrochemical
carbon monoxide detector lifespan is
approximately six years, and the detector must
be replaced by the date marked on the inside of
the product.
