A reliable, battery-operated carbon monoxide alarm designed for residential and institutional applications where hardwired installation is not available or required. The BRK CO250 is a single-station CO alarm powered by a standard 9V battery -- included in the box -- with a 10-year electrochemical CO sensor and 10-year alarm life that delivers a full decade of protection before replacement is needed. End-of-life signal, tamper-resistant locking pin, silence feature, and UL2034 compliance make it the dependable, code-compliant choice for property managers and building staff installing CO alarms across apartment units, hotel rooms, and institutional sleeping areas.
Key Features:
- 10-Year Electrochemical CO Sensor & Alarm Life: Electrochemical CO sensing technology provides accurate, reliable carbon monoxide detection over a full 10-year sensor and alarm life -- eliminating the need for sensor replacement or early alarm disposal common with lower-grade CO detectors.
- End-of-Life Signal: Provides an audible notification when the alarm has reached the end of its service life and needs to be replaced -- removing the guesswork of sensor degradation and ensuring occupants are never left with an expired, non-functioning CO alarm.
- Tamper-Resistant Locking Pin: Built-in locking pin prevents unauthorized battery removal -- a critical feature for multi-unit residential, hospitality, and institutional environments where tampering with life safety devices is a compliance and liability concern.
- 9V Battery Operated -- Battery Included: No hardwiring required -- installs anywhere a CO alarm is needed. 9V battery included in the box for immediate deployment. Silence feature allows temporary alarm acknowledgment without disabling the device.
Where to Use:
- Multi-Unit Residential Buildings: Battery-operated design allows CO alarm installation in any apartment unit or common area without electrical work -- practical for retrofit installations across large managed residential inventories.
- Hotels & Hospitality: Tamper-resistant locking pin and 10-year sensor life suit guest room CO alarm installations in hotels, motels, and extended-stay properties where NFPA 101 compliance is required.
- Healthcare & Institutional Facilities: UL2034 and NFPA 720 compliance suit CO alarm installations in hospital sleeping rooms, nursing homes, dormitories, and other institutional occupancies as defined by NFPA 101.
- Vacation & Short-Term Rental Properties: Battery operation and tamper-resistant pin make this a practical, low-maintenance CO alarm for short-term rental units and vacation properties where regular battery checks may b
