Can I use the SIM100 to monitor Carbon Monoxide (CO) detectors?
Estimated Reading Time: < 1 MinuteYes, you can use the SIM100 to monitor Carbon Monoxide (CO) detectors as long as the detector has an auxiliary contact. Maretron offers a CO detector ( https://www.maretron.com/support/manuals/CO-CO1224T%20Installation%20Instructions%201.1.html ) The CO-CO1224T carbon monoxide detector even has a trouble relay, which can be used to indicate several important failure modes including:
- power lost to the detector
- detector has reached the end of its useful life
- power leads or auxiliary contact wires connected to the SIM100 have been cut or corroded and fallen off
