Press Release Summary:
Designed to monitor carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide in parking structures, Model 301W utilizes encrypted wireless mesh network to communicate signals to 301C controller that can handle up to 50 wireless detectors in addition to 96 fixed devices. If communication path fails, system automatically finds alternative wireless pathway, enabling continuous contact. When unsafe levels of carbon monoxide are reached, ventilation system can be activated via relays.

Honeywell Introduces First Wireless Gas Detector Designed For Parking Structures
Honeywell Analytics' 301W offers installation and operational cost savings, with increased reliability and performance
Lincolnshire, IL - Honeywell (NYSE: HON) today announced the launch of the 301W, the first wireless gas detector designed to monitor carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide in parking structures.
In contrast to traditional hardwired gas detectors, the 301W offers significant installation, maintenance, and energy savings-plus greater operational flexibility and reliability. Some of these advantages:
o No wires, conduit or extra materials are required, dramatically reducing labor and material expenses.
o Automatic configuration upon activation, reducing installation/commissioning time.
o Hot-swappable, plug-in cartridge that can be replaced onsite without interruption of the gas detection network.
o Advanced zoning capabilities resulting in fewer false alarms.
Ideal for new and existing parking structures, Honeywell's wireless gas detection system can utilize both wireless and fixed detectors for those hard-to-reach areas. The 301W detector uses a proprietary, encrypted wireless mesh network to communicate signals to a 301C controller that can handle up to 50 wireless detectors in addition
to 96 fixed devices. Unlike point-to-point or point-to-multipoint communication, if the communication path fails, the system automatically finds an alternative wireless pathway. This enables continuous contact, even for hard-to-reach or obstructed areas.
When unsafe levels of carbon monoxide are reached, the ventilation system can be activated via relays - at multiple levels and varying speeds depending on the concentrations of CO measured. The 301W utilizes self-testing diagnostics and an accurate, reliable electrochemical sensor technology that virtually eliminates false alarms.
The 301W wireless gas-detection system meets both U.S. and Canadian safety standards, UL/CSA 61010-1, and uses the 2.4GHz ISM wireless band which is available for license-free use all over the world.
