plants, etc. The GD-2B does NOT detect carbon monoxide. Do NOT mount the GD-2B in
a corner. The GD-2B is designed for connection to Fire Alarm/Burglary Control Panels.
Do not connect the GD-2B to Fire Alarm Circuits, or Burglar Alarm or other signals. The
Alarm Control Panel must be dedicated to gas detection or have alarm devices that

outside of this temperature range may adversely affect product performance and result in
sickness or death.
