I don't understand the question's purpose, but a good place would be in a location exposed to the atmosphere you wish to analyze. That's obvious, but I don't know what else to say. Any other answer would be dependant upon extra information you've not provided. (i.e. if the application is to determine the mass of CO in a system, you'd want to put the detector in a location where the atmosphere is mixed well, next to a fan maybe; if the application is to determine the maximum concentration of CO present in a system, then you'd want to put it several places over time or locate it next to a source of CO2 if present).

There are a number of carbon monoxide (CO) detectors available. Some relatively inexpensive units can be had from the "big box" home supply stores. These CO detectors are designed to either plug into electrical outlets directly, or be mounted optimally and then powered up by an adapter of sorts. Certainly there are portable units that run on batteries, and these might be had from surplus stores or companies that provide safety equipment to professionals or homeowners concerned with preparedness. You are encouraged to decide what kind of unit you desire, perhaps based on how you will use it, and also the characteristics of the unit. You can then narrow your search for that kind of device. The web allows a shopper to connect to many different suppliers of these pieces of gear very quickly. Pricing, availability and delivery schedules will vary.

You could find them at your local hardware store. They are even sometimes sold in grocery stores.
