Product detailed description

FIBARO Carbon Monoxide (CO) Sensor with Z-Wave

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a highly dangerous, invisible, tasteless, and odorless gas that is produced by incomplete combustion. The only way to detect its deadly presence is by utilizing specialized gas sensors. The FIBARO CO Sensor is an impeccably designed and technologically uncompromised, certified detector engineered to save lives inside your Smart Home.

100% Protection and BSI Certification

When lives are at stake, there is no room for compromise. The FIBARO CO Sensor is not just a smart gadget; it is a fully certified life-safety device meeting the strict European EN 50291-1:2010 standard. It has passed extreme stress tests in the accredited BSI Group laboratory. The device is designed to operate completely autonomously. This means that even during a massive blackout or if your smart hub (Home Center) is destroyed, the sensor remains fully functional. It will reliably detect CO leaks and warn you with a piercing built-in siren and flashing strobe light.

Visual Indicators and Smart Notifications

Simplicity saves lives. The sensor clearly informs you about the current air quality without needing an app, thanks to its intuitive colored LED ring:

• 🟢 Green color: Air quality is excellent, with no elevated presence of CO.
• 🟡 Yellow color: CO concentration has risen slightly (which may cause a headache). The system sends a push notification advising you to ventilate the room.
• 🔴 Red color: CO levels are critical and life-threatening. The aggressive 85 dB siren blasts, urgent push notifications are dispatched to your smartphone, and your FIBARO system can trigger emergency routines—such as opening motorized blinds and turning on all lights to illuminate an escape route.

Black Box and Temperature Measurement

The device conceals a unique 'black box' data logger that records the exact history of gas measurements and securely transmits it to the smart hub. You can always review detailed graphs and analyze your indoor air quality over the week. In addition to CO detection, the unit features a fully-fledged ambient temperature sensor. This not only acts as a secondary fire warning (triggering an alarm if the temperature spikes suddenly) but also feeds accurate room temperature data to your smart heating thermostats.

Placement and Technical Specifications

The sensor should be placed in any room where combustion occurs and there is a risk of a leak (e.g., near a gas boiler, water heater, or next to the living room fireplace).

• Protocol: Z-Wave Plus (AES-128 S0 security encryption).
• Power Supply: Completely wireless, using 1x CR123A battery (lasts for years, battery level visible in the app).
• Loud acoustic alarm rated at 85 dBA from 3 meters.
• Works autonomously and seamlessly pairs with Z-Wave hubs (FIBARO, Homey, SmartThings).
