General
World-class fire and carbon monoxide (CO) detection com-
bined in a single addressable device provides a practical solu-
tion for today’s market.
The IntelliQuad PLUS FCO-851 Advanced Multi-Criteria Fire/
CO Detector is a plug-in, addressable device that provides
both fire and carbon monoxide (CO) detection. For fire, the
detector combines four separate sensing elements in one unit
(smoke, CO, light/flame, and heat) to sense multiple compo-
nents of a fire. This approach enables enhanced sensitivity to
real fire with heightened immunity to nuisance particulate. For
CO, the detector’s electrochemical sensing cell creates a sep-
arate signal for life safety CO detection.
CO is a colorless, odorless, and deadly gas that is virtually
impossible to detect with the human senses. It is released
whenever carbon-based fuels (from fossil fuels to firewood)

burn without enough oxygen to form CO2. Because the poten-
tial exists for dangerous levels of CO to accumulate in almost
any building, legislation mandating the use of CO detection in
commercial spaces continues to increase across the U.S. and FCO-851 in B200S Sounder Base
Canada. The FCO-851 is listed to the UL 268 standard for
smoke detectors and the UL 2075 standard for system-con-
nected life safety carbon monoxide monitoring.
The FCO-851 should be used in conjunction with the B200S Sensitivity Settings and
intelligent sounder base, which can generate either a Temp 3 Suggested Applications
pattern for fire or a Temp 4 pattern for CO alarm indication.
