FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NEW: CX-6 ETL Listed to UL 2075

Sioux Falls, SD – December 2024

Macurco is excited to announce that the Macurco CX-6 (CO/NO2), CX-6-CO, and CX-6-NO2 are now UL 2075 approved through ETL. The CX-6 detects Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) in commercial facilities such as parking garages, loading docks, etc. It can be used as a stand-alone detector, controller, and as an analog transducer for use with Macurco control panels and other systems. This monitor has a 4-5 year field-replaceable sensor.

Macurco is one of only two companies globally with NO2 that is ETL Listed to UL 2075. Macurco is also the first in the commercial space to have CO, NO2, and Methane monitors that are ETL Listed to UL 2075.

“Macurco is proud to announce that its upgraded CX-6 models now feature UL2075 certification, demonstrating our commitment to safety, quality, and performance. This certification ensures our detectors meet industry standards for accurately detecting hazardous gases. With advancements in Nitrogen Dioxide sensor technology, our new models offer a 5-year sensor lifespan, doubling the previous 2-year life. As states increasingly require UL2075 certification for gas detectors, Macurco remains at the forefront of this market development, providing customers with reliable, industry-leading safety solutions.”    – Aaron Sherman, Director of Product Management

International Mechanical Code:

International Mechanical Code (IMC) 2021 section 404.1 states that mechanical ventilation in enclosed parking garages now requires CO and NO2 to be listed in accordance with UL 2075.

IMC Section 404.1 states, “Mechanical ventilation systems for enclosed parking garages shall operate continuously or shall be automatically operated by means of carbon monoxide detectors applied in conjunction with nitrogen dioxide detectors. Such detectors shall be listed in accordance with UL 2075 and installed in accordance with their listing and the manufacturer’s instructions. Automatic operation shall cycle the ventilation system between the following two modes of operation:

  1. Full-on at an airflow rate of not less than 0.75 cfm per square foot [0.0038 m3 / (s * m2)] of the floor area served.
  2. Standby at an airflow rate of not less than 0.05 cfm per square foot [0.00025 m3 / (s * m2)] of the floor area served.”

Failing to comply with the International Mechanical Code (IMC) for a parking garage can lead to several serious consequences, such as safety hazards, legal and regulatory consequences, insurance issues, operation impacts, and challenges with future developments.
