Instruction manual

Introduction

Thank you for the purchase of this Carbon Dioxide Monitor, Carbon Dioxide is also known as CO2. This product is designed for measuring CO2 concentrations, as well as air temperature and humidity. To be used at home, office, school, canteen etc. The CO2 monitor adapts itself to its environment (auto calibrate). No settings need to be made. This CO2 Monitor alerts users through voice messages and audible alarms. Always avoid exposure to high concentrations of CO2. This product, when used properly, is designed to alert you to elevated levels to CO2 so that you may take action to remove yourself from that environment.

• Accurate measurement of:
  • carbon dioxide detection, ± 50ppm+5%
  • temperature detection, ± 0.5°C or 0.9°F
  • moisture detection, ± 5% RH
• Led status indication
• Voice alarm notification
• AUTO adjustment brightness of the display
• Rechargeable internal backup battery (± 12 hours)

Explanation

Where to install the device?
The CO2 sensor needs a process that ADAPTS to the current environment. In order to achieve a more accurate detection effect, it should continue to work for more than 24 hours after changing the use environment to complete the automatic calibration. After the completion, the calibration will not be completed at the next startup. Ideally, a device should be installed in every room containing a fuel-burning appliance and in a room where the occupant(s) spend most time like the living room, bedroom and study or hobby room. The CO2 monitor can be wall mounted (eye level), use cable input A (see page 2) or placed on a cabinet or table/desk, using cable input B (see page 2).

Where not to install the device

• In an enclosed space (for example in a cupboard or behind a curtain).
• Where it can be obstructed (for example by furniture).
• Directly above a sink.
• Next to a door or window.
• Next to an extractor fan.
• Next to an air vent or other similar ventilation openings.
• In an area where the temperature may drop below -5°C or exceed 50°C.
• Where dirt and dust may block the sensor.
• In a damp or humid location.
• Near a cooking appliance.

Add the device to the ELRO Connects 2.0 app

1. Turn on the CO2 Monitor by the switch on the back.
2. Select the CO2 Monitor in the app.
3. Quickly press three times on the TEST/HUSH button.
4. The device will now be added to your K2 Connector and app.

6. Mounting (see page 2)
The CO2 Monitor comes with screws and wall plugs for mounting on the wall. Remove the CO2 Monitor from the mounting plate, turn (11) counterclockwise approximately 15°. Use the mounting plate to mark the drill holes. After drilling, place the dowels in the holes and then screw down the mounting plate with the screws. Switch on the back-up battery (10), fully charged is approximately 12 hours usage without an adapter connection. Connect the adapter to the CO2 monitor (9) and a power outlet.
Place the CO2 Monitor on the mounting plate and turn (12) approximately 15° clockwise.

Status indicator – Green / Yellow / Red

• When ≤1000PPM, the warning window displays green colour.
• When 1000PPM ~ 1500 PPM the warning window displays yellow colour
• When ≥1500 PPM, the warning window displays red colour and emits 75db@1m alarm sound. Take recommended actions to prevent damage to personal health and safety.

Explanation operation buttons

• Short press to switch between temperature, humidity and CO2 display.
• Short press to get temperature display and then long press to set degrees Celcius or degrees Fahrenheit.
• Short press to get CO2 display and then long press to set alarm sound ON/OFF.
• Long press to test the alarm. Short press to delay/hush the alarm for 10 minutes.
• Within 150 seconds from turning the product on, press and hold both keys simultaneously for 3 seconds. You will hear a voice message in the currently selected language. Press again for 3 seconds and the selection moves to the next available language.

Recommended actions when the CO2 Monitor warning has been activated Keep calm.
Open all doors and windows and turn off all combustion appliances. If the CO2 Monitor continues to sound the alarm, evacuate your home. Leave all doors and windows open and do not enter until the alarm has stopped. Seek medical attention for anyone who may be suffering from the effects of carbon dioxide poisoning.

Carbon dioxide levels and guidelines

• 400PPM Normal outdoor air level

• 400 ~ 1000PPM Typical level indoors with good ventilation.
  NOTE: If CO2 levels are low when building is sealed and occupied, check for overventilation (too much fresh air = energy wasted).

• > 1000PPM ASHRAE and OSHA recommended maximum level in a closed room. Considered maximum comfort level in many countries.

• > 1200PPM Poor air quality – requires ventilation.

• > 2000PPM According to many studies this level of CO2 produces a significant increase in drowsiness, tiredness, headache lower levels of concentration and increased likelihood of spreading respiratory viruses like colds, etc.

• > 5000PPM OSHA and NIOSH first threshold for safety. Maximum allowed concentration within an 8 hour working period.

Maintenance

We recommend to manually test CO2 Monitor once a month by pressing and holding the test button. Dust is a major cause of false alarms. Therefore, clean the CO2 Monitor once a month. Use a vacuum cleaner to gently remove any accumulated dust along the sides of the CO2 Monitor. Never use a wet cloth or detergent to clean your CO2 Monitor. Clean the device with a soft, damp and lint-free cloth. Make sure that no moisture enters the housing. Do not use any sprays, solvents, alcohol-based cleaning agents or abrasive cleaners, but only clean water to moisten the cloth.
