CO2 BUDDY

The CO2BUDDY personal alarm is designed to detect carbon dioxide (CO2) and warn of any dangerous levels in confined spaces. The CO2BUDDY is suitable for a wide variety of applications where CO2 is used including pub and bar cellars, walk in coolers, fast food outlets, agricultural grow houses, medical laboratories and food packaging plants. CO2BUDDY ensures personal protection for delivery drivers, servicing engineers and maintenance personnel who work in multiple locations where CO2 is used but is not guaranteed to be monitored by a fixed system. Charged via a Micro USB cable, the CO2BUDDY is easy and convenient to keep fully powered. The CO2BUDDY is a robust, but lightweight safety alarm from Analox, one of the world's leading gas monitor companies with facilities in the UK and US. Standards including EH40 in Europe and OSHA throughout the US mandate that employees should not be exposed to potentially dangerous levels of CO2 as it can prove to be highly toxic in very small concentrations. CO2BUDDY has two alarm levels (low and high) which are uniquely identified to the user through different audible and visual sequences. CO2BUDDY also monitors a time weighted average (TWA) of exposure to CO2 over an eight hour period and will go into alarm if the TWA of CO2 is above 0.5%. The low and high alarm levels can easily be altered from the factory defaults by selecting from a choice of alarm configurations during commissioning of a unit. Alarm configurations supported include 0.5% and 1.5%, 1.5% and 3.0%, 0.5% and 1.0%, 1.0% and 2.0%.
