Bosch FCP-500-C Flush-Mount Smoke Detector with Improved Carbon Monoxide (CO) Sensing Capability

Bosch FCP-500-C Flush-Mount Smoke Detector

Bosch FCP-500-C is equipped with Carbon Monoxide (CO) sensor which does not exist in Bosch FCP-500.Base Model. If you are only interested in smoke detection, your best option is to buy Bosch FCP-500.

Please keep in mind, if you are looking for a full smoke detector kit, you should buy Bosch FCP-500-K or Bosch FCP-500-CK (with CO Sensor). Kits include everything you need to have a full functioning smoke detector.

The CO sensor is for detection enhancement only. It is not a CO detector and cannot activate an alarm in the presence of CO only.

Without the presence of CO, the smoke sensor is half as sensitive to smoke as a standard commercial photoelectric smoke detector. This reduces false alarms. When the sensor detects CO, the detection chamber's sensitivity to smoke increases so it is equal to that of a standard commercial photoelectric smoke chamber.
