Regular price $184.00In stock. Order by 12:00 PM PT (Mon–Fri) and it ships today.
An alarm you'll feel over a running generator. The Sensorcon Inspector II Industrial adds a vibrating alarm and intrinsic safety certification to a live carbon monoxide readout, for power outages, storm cleanup, job sites and anywhere the noise drowns out a buzzer.
Made for Generators, Outages and Loud Places
When the power goes out, generators, pressure washers and chainsaws come out, often too close to the house. Generator exhaust can drift through a window, a vent or an open garage door. Clip the Industrial to your belt or shirt while you work, then set it in the bedroom at night.
After the Storm
After Hurricane Katrina came ashore in August 2005, hyperbaric treatment centers in Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi reported 51 cases of carbon monoxide poisoning in less than four weeks, five of them fatal. Nearly all were linked to portable generators placed under decks, near windows, or in garages and sheds. About three out of four happened in the first week. The CDC noted the true count was likely higher.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far should a generator be from the house?
Run portable generators outdoors only, well away from doors, windows and vents, and never in a garage, even with the door open. Follow your generator's instructions. The Inspector II tells you if exhaust is getting inside anyway.
Does this replace the CO alarms in my home?
No. The Inspector is a portable monitor. Keep a UL 2034 listed CO alarm on every level of your home and near sleeping areas, and use the Inspector to carry protection with you and to pinpoint where CO is coming from.
How do I keep it accurate?
Electrochemical sensors drift over time, so plan on regular calibration. Our $49 Western/Central US service includes certified-gas calibration and a new battery, back to you in 48 hours.
