With RealTest® technology, the CO gas sensing cell used in the
CO1224T and CO1224TR CO detectors can be tested using a CO gas
agent, fully meeting the requirements of NFPA 720: 2009. Simply put
the detector into RealTest mode, spray a small amount of CO into
the detector per the installation instructions, and within seconds the
detector will alarm, indicating successful gas entry. (See the reverse
page or the user manual for complete instructions.)
When dangerous amounts of CO are detected, the CO1224T and
CO1224TR detectors alert residents by sounding and flashing a
temp 4 signal alarm. With 24/7 central station monitoring, residents
are guaranteed protection whether they are away from home,
sleeping, or already suffering from the effects of CO.
The CO1224T and CO1224TR are designed for system operation.
These detectors are fully listed to UL 2075 and offer a code-required
trouble relay to send a sensor failure or end-of-life signal to the
control panel and the central station. The CO1224T and CO1224TR also use SEMS-type terminal Philips head screws for quicker
and more positive wiring connections and code-required wiring
supervision. With a low current draw, these detectors enable more
devices to be connected to the panel, limiting the need to purchase
extra power supplies or more expensive panels. As 12/24 VDC
detectors, the CO1224T and CO1224TR will operate on most industry
security and fire alarm control panels.

Architectural/Engineering Specifications
Carbon monoxide detector shall be a System Sensor model number CO1224T or CO1224TR 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 that 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. The detector shall provide a means to test CO gas
entry into the CO sensing cell. The detector shall provide this with a test mode that accepts CO gas from a test agent and alarms immediately upon sensing CO entry.
