PRESS RELEASE- AVIATION’S FIRST PANEL MOUNTED PULSE OXIMETER/CO DETECTOR
Sun-n-Fun Air Show, April 2010: CO Guardian, LLC., proudly announces aviation’s first built-in pulse oximeter for airplane panels. The Life Guardian Aero-455 has been designed for all aircraft with limited panel space. The Life Guardian Pulse Oximeter (with CO detector) mounts easily in most panels and transmits data to the MFDs via RS-232. Current MFD manufacturers include: Electronics International, Advanced Flight Technologies, Grand Rapids Instruments and Avidyne Entegra Release 9. CO Guardian LLC. offers state-of-the-art aircraft carbon monoxide detectors and is the CO detector industry leader for general aviation. CO Guardian uses patented technologies in all its products. CO Guardian units are factory installed in all new CESSNA 172,182,206,350,400, CIRRUS SR20, SR22, DIAMOND DA40 and Skycrane helicopter models.
BACKGROUND
The Aero-455 displays cabin CO levels, pilot blood oxygen levels, heart rate and cabin altitude. The Aero-455 unit integrates with Electronic Instrument EI-MVP50, Advance-Flight Systems model AF-2500/AF-3500, Grand Rapids (Sport Series)Engine Monitor and Horizon; soon it will integrate with the Dynon and Avidyne Release 9. The Life Guardian Aero-455 will be instrumental in saving lives and providing pilots with a safety "net" they will really use. Safety is the number one priority in the design and manufacture of all CO Guardian products.
The new Life Guardian Aero-455 unit transmits the pilot’s blood oxygen levels (SPO2), heart rate statistics, CO levels, cabin temperature and cabin altitude to the MFD display units. The pilot inserts an index finger into the Life Guardian Pulse Oximeter unit and quickly gets readouts so he/she can determine his/her general physical and cabin environmental conditions. The CO Guardian Aero-455 "reminds" pilots to check SPO2 levels and heart rates every 30 minutes when flying above 10,000 feet.
