Tim O'Keefe Posted: Oct 09, 2007 09:26 PM	breathing air panels I am looking to buy a breathing air panel and there are some with CO monitors and filters. How prevalent is CO inside a trailer that would get into the compressed air system? The diesel exhaust is vented outside and is not detectable inside the trailer. I know CO is the silent killer though, and certainly don't want to take any chances. Tim Granite State Spray Foam Co.

Kevin Morse Posted: Oct 11, 2007 09:31 AM	Hi Tim, You really should have a CO monitor, it comes with 90 db audible alarm. If your compressor and generator are in the same space, it is quite easy to draw carbon monoxide into the compressed air system Pls vist our website at www.morseindustrial.ca Send me an email through the contact page and I can send literature and pricing.

breathing air panels

I am looking to buy a breathing air panel and there are some with CO monitors and filters. How prevalent is CO inside a trailer that would get into the compressed air system? The diesel exhaust is vented outside and is not detectable inside the trailer. I know CO is the silent killer though, and certainly don't want to take any chances.
