Is my product affected?

GE Telaire Airestat and Carrier Single Beam Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Temperature Sensors

Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

GE Infrastructure Sensing has recalled commercial CO2 and temperature sensors because they can overheat and create a fire hazard. The recall involves GE Telaire Airestat sensors (models T8010, T8010-C, T8011, T8011-C, T5010, T5010-C, T5011, and T5011-C) and Carrier Single Beam sensors (models 33ZCT55CO2 and 33ZCT56CO2). These wall-mounted sensors are used in commercial buildings and may have a Telaire logo, Carrier logo, or no logo on the front. The model number cannot be found on the outside of the unit, so determining whether a sensor is part of this recall requires inspection of the internal components.

According to the recall notice, building owners should immediately contact GE Infrastructure Sensing for instructions on how to determine if a sensor is included in the recall and whether it can continue to be used while awaiting replacement. Only authorized maintenance personnel should follow these instructions. Affected building owners will receive a free replacement sensor from GE Infrastructure Sensing.
