Product Information
The product is a room air quality sensor with VOC (volatile organic compounds) measuring transducers. It is designed to be installed in-wall as part of the panel switch program. The sensor has an active output and is used to evaluate the indoor climate in various settings such as offices, hotels, convention centers, apartments, and shops. It helps in achieving energy-saving room ventilation by providing real-time information about pollutant loading in the air, including gases from sources like cigarette smoke, body vapors, solvent vapors, and emissions. The sensor enables users to reduce operating costs and improve well-being.
The product is manufactured by GIRA and belongs to the GIRA System 55 switch program. The housing is made of plastic and comes in a standard color of pure glossy white (similar to RAL 9010), but other colors are available upon request. The sensor has a measuring range of 0-100% VOC and provides an output voltage range of 0-10V.

AERASGARD® FSLQ
Maintenance-free light intensity sensor PHOTASGARD® FSHKM with active output,
in in-wall housing, to determine the illuminance (0…1kLux). The measuring
transducer converts the measured variables into a standard signal of 0 -10 V.
The in-wall sensor is mounted in high-quality panel switch programmed, ideally
of the brands Gira, Berker, Merten, Jung, Siemens or Busch-Jaeger (using in-
wall adapters) either individually or in combination with light switches,
socket outlets, etc.
The sensor is used to control luminaires, lighting systems, Venetian blinds
and canvas blinds and for monitoring the lighting conditions.
It is used indoors at workplaces, in corridors, offices, residential and
business premises as well as industrial and storage halls as daylight-
dependent constant light control, as brightness or twilight sensor and to
control sun protection hoods to avoid unnecessary room heating.
The light sensor (photodiode) was specifically adapted to the sensitivity of the human eye. It is most sensitive in the range of 350 nm to 820 nm. With its special filter, the sensor is therefore ideally suited to exposure measurement of daylight and ⁄ or for measuring artificial light of high color temperature (similar to sunlight).

SUPPLY VOLTAGE :
For operating voltage reverse polarity protection, a one-way rectifier or
reverse polarity protection diode is integrated in this device variant. This
internal one-way rectifier also allows operating 0 – 10 V devices on AC supply
voltage.
The output signal is to be tapped by a measuring instrument. Output voltage is
measured her against zero potential (O V) of the input voltage!
When this device is operated on DC supply voltage, the operating voltage input
UB+ is to be used for 15…36 V DC supply and UB – or GND for ground wire!
When several devices are supplied by one 24 V AC voltage supply, it is to be
ensured that all ”positive“ operating voltage input terminals (+) of the field
devices are connected with each other and all ”negative“ operating voltage
input terminals (–) (= reference potential) are connected together (in-phase
connection of field devices). All outputs of field devices must be referenced
to the same potential!
In case of reversed polarity at one field device, a supply voltage short-
circuit would be caused by that device. The consequential short-circuit
current flowing through this field device may cause damage to it.
Therefore, pay attention to correct
wiring!
Installation and Commissioning
Automatic calibration of air quality (default), except for UP
The minimum initial value for air quality is memorized within a period of ca.
7 days. After that period has lapsed, the output signal is standardised to
zero-point (1.0 V). The maximum amount of correction is thereby limited to 1 V
⁄ interval. In this way, long-term drifts and opera-tional aging effects of
the sensor element are completely eliminated.
Manual calibration of air quality, except for UP
Manual calibration can be started independently from the position of jumper J3
by pushing the button. After connecting the device, a period of at least 2
hours of continuous operation of the device at „normal“ air quality is to be
ensured.
Manual calibration of the output signal to 1 V (zero-point) is started be
pressing the button „Manual calibration“ (for ca. 5 seconds). Preparing for
calibration is indicated by a blinking LED.
Setting the output to 1 V at actual ambient conditions follows automati-cally
thereafter. During this phase, the LED is permanently activated. After
calibration is completed, the LED is deactivated.
Putting in operation
Upon energizing the device, a self-test and tempering takes place. Depending
on ambient conditions, this process takes 3 to 5 minutes. During that time,
the output analog voltage deviates from the actual measured value.
Air quality is measured through a VOC sensor (metal oxide). Due to its
functional principle, the lifetime of the sensor depends on nature and
concentration of the pollutant gas burden. The sensitive layer of the sensor
element reacts with all volatile organic compounds and is thereby modified in
its electrical properties or “exhausted“. This process results in a
displacement of the characteristic curve. Such characteristic curve
displacement however amounts to less than 15 % ⁄ year under normal burden. In
measuring air quality, the general condition of air quality is detected.
Whether air quality is “good“ or “bad“ is differently interpreted by each
person.
Different pollution burdens and concentrations influence the air quality
signal (0…10 Volt) in different ways. Examples for this are cigarette smoke,
deodorant sprays, cleaning agents, or also various adhesive materials for
floor and wall coverings as well as dyestuffs. Increased burdens e.g. by
solvents, nicotine, hydrocarbons, aerosol propellants etc. intensify
consumption ⁄ aging of the sensor element. Particularly under high pollutant
gas burdens – also during non-operational idle state periods of the devices
(transport and storage) – zero-point drift will occur. Consequently, this must
be corrected at site according to the respective circumstances or basic
burdens.
Air quality measuring instruments of different manufacturers cannot directly
be compared because of different functional principles, preset basic burdens
(zero-point), and permitted burdens (amplification ⁄ sensitivity). Devices are
preset respectively calibrated according to the sensor manufaturer‘s
specifications. Here, a zero-point and a final value is determined and thus a
maximum burden. In particular cases, exceeding measuring ranges or excessive
basic burdens on the devices will occur (outgassing floor carpeting, wall
paint, etc.). In order to enable distinguishing different air qualities,
devices need to be adjusted by the customer according to the conditions
existing on site that do not correlate to the factory-preset definition range
and calibration. Please note that factory calibration is thereby lost and
compliance with technical data can no longer be guaranteed.
General notes
-
This unit must only be used in non-precipitating air without positive or negative pressure at the sensor element.
-
Dust and contamination distort measurement results and are to be avoided.
Small amounts of contamination and dust deposits can be removed using compressed air. -
Under no circumstances should the sensor come into contact with chemicals or other cleaning agents.
-
In case of contamination, we recommend cleaning and recalibration in the factory.
-
The air quality signal “good”… “bad” is mapped by the output signal 0…10 V.
-
Outside the working range of the device, faulty measurements or increased deviations may occur
-
The sensor surface must be protected from any dirt and ⁄ or damage.
-
Scratches, dirt or even partial obstruction distort the measurement result.
-
When several sensors are connected to one voltage supply of 24 V AC (alternating voltage), the correct polarity must be ensured as otherwise the alternating voltage source may be short-circuited.
-
The outputs are short-circuit proof; applying overvoltage or voltage supply to the output will destroy the unit.
-
If this unit is operated beyond the specified range, all warranty claims are forfeited.
