Understanding Carbon Monoxide Levels and Human Reaction
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that can be deadly. Here’s a quick guide to the effects of CO exposure:
- 100 ppm: No noticeable effect after a few hours of exposure.
- 200 ppm: Slight headache after 1.5 hours.
- 400-500 ppm: Headache, nausea, dizziness after about an hour.
- 500-1000 ppm: Loss of consciousness within 1 to 1.5 hours.
- 1,500 – 2,000 ppm: Severe headache, dizziness, nausea within 30 minutes to an hour, followed by unconsciousness.
