INTRODUCTION

The TrolMaster Carbon-X system is designed to protect customers and workers near commercial indoor growing areas that use supplemental CO2, satisfying all local and state regulations. The system has a modular structure, allowing you to customize the system to fit your unique requirements, being able to monitor up to 13 zone.

The Carbon-X system offers both high level alerts, as well as low level alerts.
The sensors will constantly monitor the CO2 level of the areas. If unsafe levels of CO2 are detected, the system can shut down CO2 flow, vent the area, turn on visual and audible alarms and even send signals to a fire alarm panel.

The system can control up to 40 outputs total. Each output can be linked to an individual sensor or all sensors for a customized programming. There are five types of outputs that can be connected to the system.

The AS-1 and AS-2 CO2 Alarm Stations are audio-visual alarm modules.

The DSE-1 CO2 Emergency Stop Station controls the main Co2 solenoid. It will automatically shut it off if any fault or high CO2 level is detected

The DSC-1 is a 120V controlled outlet that turns on devices like ventilation fans if any fault or high CO2 level is detected.

The DSD-1 is a Dry Contact output. Both N/O and N/C connections are provided on the DSD-1 and it can interface to the fire alarm panel.

The Carbon-X system also provides internet connectivity to a cloud service that will send push alerts to Trolmaster’s smart phone APP and send alert emails to email accounts.

NOTICES

Here are some important things to consider when using the Carbon-X Alarm System.

  • Up to 13 MBS-K30 sensors can be connected to the system on each channels ( AL-1 and AL-2). All sensors need to be connection to a powered splitter hub SPH-1 before connected to the system.
  • Up to 40 device stations can be connected to the system. All Alarm Stations need to be connected to a powered splitter hub SPH-1 before connected to the system.
  • The sensors and device stations are connected to the Carbon-X system by using standard RJ12 cable and RJ12 splitters. The modules are “daisy chained” together using the RJ-12 cables allowing for flexible installation, and future expansion.
  • If the user chooses to install the units using non – Trolmaster RJ12 cables, and / or if a third-party installs RJ12 cables other than Trolmaster cables, they must ensure that all cables are made to the same specs and are “straight through” RJ12 cable configuration. (pin1 to pin 1, pin 6 to pin 6 etc)
  • Reverse cable configuration or improper cable assembly or installation of the cables will permanently damage the units and / or the modules connected to the unit, and will void the manufacturers warranty.
  • Follow all local and national electrical codes for installation requirements
