Sensorcon · Built to be rebuilt
Own a Professional-Grade CO Monitor for Less Than $50 a Year
Buy it once. Rebuild it for years.
Why throw away a disposable CO detector when you can rebuild it for just $69?
*Example based on the Sensorcon Legacy Inspector (INS-CO-01): $154 + two $69 Sensorcon rebuilds over six years. Prices subject to change.

The same detector, back in service
When the sensor wears out, a Sensorcon rebuild replaces the parts that wear out (the electrochemical CO sensor and the battery), repairs broken or damaged parts (damage from negligence is not covered), and returns the same detector to service with a complete calibration and a renewed 2-year warranty, instead of discarding it.
$25 off a backup unit
Keep a spare in rotation
With a Nevada Service Center calibration order, get $25 off a new Sensorcon detector with free 2-day delivery (lower 48 states), so a detector stays on the job while another is at the service center. Your discount code arrives after you purchase the calibration and is valid for 24 hours.
Calibration or Rebuild?
Choose the $49 calibration when
- The detector is working normally and you need its accuracy verified
- Your program requires scheduled calibration
- The display shows EOL but the detector may still pass calibration
Choose a rebuild when
- The sensor has failed or won't pass calibration
- Parts are broken or damaged
- You want a new sensor, a new battery and a fresh 2-year warranty
Rebuild + new warranty
Full Sensorcon Rebuild
New York Service Center (Sensorcon) · typically 5 to 7 business days
- New electrochemical CO sensor and battery
- Repair of broken or damaged parts (not negligence)
- Complete calibration
- Renewed 2-year warranty, no limit on rebuilds
Not sure which one? Start with a calibration. If the detector won't calibrate, we contact you before doing anything else, and it can go to Sensorcon for the rebuild.
Sending Detectors to Nevada Service Center
Order the calibration. For several detectors, set the quantity to the number of detectors, then choose turnaround and return shipping.
Pack the detectors with a copy of your order confirmation, or write your order number on a sheet of paper and put it in the box.
Ship them to us. You pay shipping to us.
118 Corporate Park Drive, Suite 115
Henderson, NV 89074
We calibrate and ship back within the turnaround and by the return shipping you selected.
Sending to the New York Service Center instead? Purchase the service, include the calibration request form with your order confirmation, mark the box "ATTN: CALIBRATIONS" and follow Sensorcon's shipping instructions.
Recommended Calibration Intervals
Every 6 months
Home inspectors, HVAC technicians, fire and EMS, to keep readings within the ±10% accuracy specification
Every 3 to 6 months
Precision work such as combustion analysis, energy audits and medical use
Per your workplace rules
Safety-critical workplaces: follow OSHA or your workplace rules, which often require daily bump tests and monthly calibration
From Sensorcon's technical FAQ and calibration guide. Prefer to calibrate in-house? The Inspector series can be zero and span calibrated with 50 ppm CO gas, a regulator set to 0.3 to 0.5 L/min and Tygon tubing, as described in the instruction manual (PDF).
Frequently Asked Questions
Which service center should I use?
Both charge $49 and calibrate every Sensorcon model. Our Nevada Service Center offers a 48-hour standard turnaround, guaranteed next business day for $15 more, and 2-Day or Overnight return shipping. The New York Service Center is run by Sensorcon, with a 3 to 5 business day turnaround, and is where rebuilds are done.
Can I send several detectors on one order?
Yes. Set the calibration quantity to the number of detectors and ship them together in one box with your order number. Turnaround and return shipping upgrades are priced per detector.
Does the $49 calibration include a new sensor?
No. Calibration covers inspection, calibration, testing and a battery. A new sensor comes with the Sensorcon rebuild.
What does EOL on the display mean?
EOL means end of life. It appears after about two years, when the sensor reaches its expected lifespan, and does not necessarily mean the sensor has failed. If the detector passes calibration, the message clears and it can be used for another 180 days. If it fails, a rebuild gives it a new sensor.
What happens if a detector fails calibration at your service center?
We contact you before doing anything else. Rebuilds are done at the New York Service Center, and our turnaround times do not apply to rebuilds.
Is there a limit on rebuilds?
No. Sensorcon places no limit on how many times a detector can be rebuilt. Damage from negligence, such as a crushed or run-over detector, is not covered. Opening the detector yourself voids the warranty.
Who pays shipping?
You pay shipping to the service center. Return shipping is included: standard ground from the Nevada Service Center (2-Day and Overnight upgrades available), and standard return shipping from the New York Service Center.
Nevada Service Center calibrations are performed by InspectorTools, a Sensorcon authorized service center in Henderson, Nevada. New York Service Center calibrations and all rebuilds are performed by Sensorcon. Sensorcon's prices, turnaround times, shipping terms, warranty coverage and eligibility follow the manufacturer's current policies.
