Z-WAVE PSG04 CO Sensor User Manual

Z-WAVE PSG04 CO Sensor User Manual

Introduction

The Z-Wave CO Sensor PSG04 is designed to give early warning of high concentration CO by giving off the alarm sounds from its build-in alarm horn, based on Z-WaveTM technology.
It is the Z-WaveTM plus product, it support the security, OTA. Those newest features of the Z-WaveTM technology. Z-WaveTM is a wireless communication protocol designed for home automation, specifically to remotely control applications in residential and light commercial environments. The technology uses a low-power RF radio embedded or retrofitted into home electronics devices and systems, such as lighting, home access control, entertainment systems and household appliances.

This product can be included and operated in any Z-WaveTM network with other Z-WaveTM certified devices from other manufacturers and/or other applications. All non-battery operated nodes within the network will act as repeaters regardless of vendor to increase reliability of the network.

The device adopt the Z-WaveTM 500 series chip, when your Z-WaveTM network system is all made by Z-WaveTM 500 series devices. The network system will have the advantages as below.

•  Concurrent multi-channel support reduces external interference.
•  Better RF range, improve about 10 meters in indoor.
•  Support 100 Kbps transmit speed, speed up communication.

WARNING AND LIMITATION ！

WARNING!!
This product is intended for use in ordinary indoor locations of family living units. It is not designed to measure compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) commercial or industrial standards. It is designed to detect carbon monoxide gas from any source of combustion, it is NOT designed to detect CO. Individuals with a medical problem may consider using warning devices which provide audible and visual signals for carbon monoxide concentrations under 30ppm. This CO sensor is not suitable to install in a hazardous location, as defined in the National Electrical Code.

This CO alarm will not work without power. Philio’s PSG04 Carbon Monoxide sensor will not work if the battery power is disconnected or cut off for any reason. Additionally, carbon monoxide must reach the CO alarm unit for the proper performance of CO gas detection. Carbon monoxide alarms may wear out because they contain electronic parts that fail at any time. Test your CO alarm at least every week (see the section “TEST AND SILENCE YOUR CO ALARM”).

5. Gently close the battery cover. The battery cover of your CO Sensor will not close if all three AA batteries are not properly installed.
6. The unit will chirp for approximately 0.5 second and all the LED will flash for 0.5 second. after batteries are properly installed.

Recommended battery:
Three AA batteries have been included with your purchase. When replacing the batteries, we recommend use of following mentioned type of batteries: 3 pieces of AA 1.5V Energizer # E91 Alkaline battery; the battery life is at least one year under normal operation condition. or 3 pieces of AA 1.5V Energizer #L91 lithium battery; the battery life is at least one year under normal operation condition. or 3 pieces of AA 1.5V GP #LR6 lithium battery; the battery life is at least one year under normal operation condition.
WARNING!!
Use only Batteries specified in manual. Use of a different battery may have a detrimental effect on alarm operation.
Caution!!
Constant exposures to high or low temperatures or high humidity may reduce battery life.

TEST AND SILENCE YOUR CO ALARM

The test/silence button is used to test if the CO sensor is working properly and to mute the unit during alarm.

Test the unit:
Press the test button and you should hear 4 short beeps with a corresponding three LED flashes in 5 seconds, this cycle will repeat one more time. Familiarize yourself and your family members with this alarm pattern as this testing simulates a actual CO sensor condition.

Silence the unit :
If the CO sensor is sounding, pressing the test/Mute button will have the alarm muted while at the same time red LED keeps flashing. After 4 minutes, if the CO concentration caused the alarm still remains at alarming condition, the CO sensor will reactivate.

TAKING CARE OF YOUR CO ALARM
You have to maintain the CO sensor frequently to ensure it working properly. Few tips are provided for you to take care of your CO sensor PSG04:

• (a) Use a vacuum cleaner to clean the CO sensor cover once a month, using the soft brush attachment, never use water, cleaners as they may damage the unit.
• (b) Press the Test/Mute button to test its operating function once every week.

MEANING OF LED LIGHT & SOUND

The red, green, yellow LED light and sound turn on and/or off to indicate various situations. There are a few different LED light and sound operations:

• Power on mode: Three LEDs blink and buzzer beeps for 0.5 second as soon as the batteries are installed.
• Stand-by mode: green LED flashes once in every 60 seconds, which means the unit is receiving power and also indicates it is functioning properly.
• CO Alarm mode: When the unit sensors CO which is at alarming level , the red LED light flashes rapidly and buzzer sounds loudly with repeating 4 quick beeps and pause 5 seconds and then 4 quick beeps.
• Low battery warning mode: The yellow LED flashes once in a minute and the buzzer chirps also once in a minute. This warning should last for up to 30 days, but please replace the battery asap before battery power is completely exhausted.
• Malfunction (Error) mode: The yellow LED flashes three times in a minute and buzzer chirps once in a minute. This indicates the unit is malfunctioned and needs to be replaced.
• Low sensitivity (Aging) mode: The yellow LED flashes twice in a minute and buzzer chirps once in a minute. This means unit needs to be replaced.
• End of life signal mode: The yellow LED flashes four times in a minute and buzzer chirps once in a minute. This indicate the CO alarm unit is reaching the end of this useful life (around 5 years after the unit is purchased), please replace with the new CO alarm.
• Tamper mode: The buzzer chirps once in a minute and the yellow LED is steadily on .until the CO alarm unit is mounted back to the bracket properly.

ACTIONS TO TAKE WHEN CO ALARM SOUNDING

WARNING!! Actuation of your CO alarm indicates the presence of carbon monoxide (CO) which can kill you. If alarm sounds :

1. Operate Mute button
2. Call your emergency services or fire department or 911
3. Immediately move to the fresh air –outdoor or by an open door window.

In case of harmful levels of CO gas being detected, your CO sensor PSG04 will go into a CO alarm mode as mentioned above. in “ CO Alarm Mode” Try to take the following necessary actions immediately:

• (a) If there is anyone experiencing the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning such as headache, dizziness, nausea or other flu-like symptoms, call your fire department right away or 911. You should evacuate all the people in the premises immediately. Do a head count to check that everybody is accounted for.
• (b) Do not re-enter the premises until the problem has been corrected and the CO gas has been dispersed out and a safe level is reached.
• (c) If no symptoms exist, immediately ventilate the home by opening windows and doors. Turn off fuel burning appliances and call a qualified technician or your utility company to inspect and repair your problem before restarting appliances.

Normally an activation of the CO alarm indicates the presence of CO gas. However, the CO gas can be extremely fatal, if it is not detected. The source of the CO gas may come from several possible situations, please refer to the list of sources of carbon monoxide in page 1.
CAUTION!!
This CO alarm will only indicate the presence of CO gas at the sensor. However, you have to be aware that the CO gas may be present in other areas in the premises.

LOCATIONS TO INSTALL YOUR CO ALARM

Since CO gas moves freely in the air, the suggested location is in or as near as possible to sleeping areas of the home. The human body is most vulnerable to the effects of CO gas during sleeping hours. For maximum protection, a CO alarm should be located outside primary sleeping areas or on each level of your home. In the figure 1 below, are suggested locations in the home. The electronic sensor detects carbon monoxide, measures the concentration and sounds a loud alarm before a potentially harmful level is reached.

Do not place the CO alarm in the following areas:

• (a) Where the temperature may drop below 40℉(4.4℃) or exceed 100℉ (37.8℃)
• (b) Near paint thinner fumes
• (c) Within 5 feet (1.5 meter) of open flame appliances such as furnaces, stoves and fireplaces
• (d) In exhaust streams from gas engines, vents, flues or chimneys
• (e) Do not place in close proximity to an automobile exhaust pipe; this will damage the Alarm
