Potter Electric PAD300-CD Carbon Monoxide Detector

Product Description

The POTTER ELECTRIC SIGNAL CO. US PAD300-CD is a carbon monoxide detector designed for life-safety applications in commercial and residential buildings. It continuously monitors ambient CO levels and triggers an alarm when concentrations reach dangerous thresholds, helping protect occupants and meet code requirements. Licensed fire alarm technicians, electrical contractors, and life-safety installers are the primary trades working with this device. It is sold as a single unit and is suited for integration into monitored fire alarm or CO detection systems.

The PAD300-CD is appropriate for use in commercial occupancies, multi-family residential buildings, and any application where local codes require monitored carbon monoxide detection. It is designed for panel-connected or supervised system installations rather than standalone battery-only applications, making it a fit for structured life-safety system deployments overseen by a licensed fire alarm contractor.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed fire alarm technician or electrical contractor in accordance with NFPA 72 and all applicable local codes. De-energize the detection circuit or panel zone before making any wiring connections. Follow the manufacturer data sheet for mounting height, placement guidelines relative to potential CO sources, and end-of-line resistor requirements. Do not place the detector in areas subject to extreme humidity or temperature swings that fall outside the rated environmental range.
