GSM130
Carbon Monoxide Meter
Introduction
Thank you for selecting the Triplett GSM130 Carbon Monoxide Meter.
The GSM130 is a digital, pen style meter, that measures and displays
carbon monoxide (CO) concentrations between 0 and 999 parts per
million (ppm). The GSM130 can be used for ambient air safety checks of
residential areas, appliances, HVAC service on furnaces and hot water
heaters, home inspections, and industrial environments where the
accumulation of CO is possible.

Safety Information
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES
The GSM130 Carbon Monoxide Monitor is intended for general
purpose Air Quality monitoring only, and has not been certified for use
pursuant to any state or city safety Carbon Monoxide Alarm or
Monitoring requirements.
The GSM130 Carbon Monoxide Monitor has not been tested by an
independent lab to comply with UL 2034
or IAS 6-96 standard.
It is the responsibility of the customer to obtain and apply current local,
state, and national regulations with regard to CO alarms, monitoring
and testing.
Electromagnetic (EMI) interference my cause erratic meter readings;
do not place meter near areas of high
EMI when taking CO measurements.
Recovery time is required after the meter has been exposed to high
levels of CO (the longer the exposure, the longer the recovery time).
Carbon monoxide is life threatening even at relatively low
concentrations; learn and recognize the effects of CO
poisoning (see Table below). Do not use this meter as a
personal safety monitoring device.
Effects of Carbon Monoxide (CO) Poisoning
Warning: Ensure that the meter is powered on in room temperature
and in an area free of CO. If not, the meter will read incorrectly when
subsequently measuring CO.

Button Descriptions
Turn the meter on and off (short press); Select alarm setpoint value
(long press from a powered OFF state; release the button when desired
alarm limit is displayed)
Turn the backlight on and off (short press); Toggle temperature
units (long press during self-test period). Reset Maximum CO value
(long press in normal operating mode)
Operation
Power the meter
IMPORTANT: Power the meter in a room temperature environment
and in an area free of CO; otherwise the meter will read incorrectly
when subsequently measuring CO.
Press the button to power on the meter. The LCD will switch ON
and display the programmed CO alarm limit in the primary display and
the ambient air temperature in the secondary display (as shown in the
LCD description section above). Replace the batteries if the display
does not switch ON.
The meter performs a 15-second self-test during which the displayed
values will blink. When the self-test is finished, the meter beeps and
enters the normal operating mode.
Measurements
The CO15 detects the existence of carbon monoxide (CO) in the
environment and displays the reading in parts per million (PPM) in the
primary display.
1. To take a measurement, trace the CO15 around the area of the
suspected leak.
2. The meter indicates the presence of carbon monoxide (CO) in
PPM in the primary display. The secondary display indicates the
maximum value since powered on.
3. Long press the “backlight” button while in measurement mode
to reset the maximum value.
4. When high CO levels are detected an audible beeper sounds at 25
ppm alerting the user to the dangerous CO levels. The higher the
concentration of CO, the faster the beeper will sound.
5. To turn the meter off, press the button. The meter powers off
after 15 minutes of inactivity.
Change Temperature Units
The temperature shows on the display during the self-test only. Power
the meter in a room temperature environment for the most accurate
readings. Long press
the button during the self-test to change the temperature
units to oC or oF.
Alarm Settings
An audible beep sounds at 25ppm alerting the user to dangerous CO
levels. Change the alarm limit value by following the steps below.
1. Turn OFF the meter by pressing the button.
2. Long press the button until the options display on the
screen.
3. The LCD cycles through these options: 25, 30, 35, 45, 50, 70,
100, 200 ppm.
4. Release the button at the desired alarm limit value.
5. The meter enters the self-test mode.
Backlight
The meter features a backlit LCD for use in dimly lit areas.
Press the button to power ON and OFF the backlight.
Auto Power OFF
The meter automatically powers OFF after 15 minutes of inactivity.
