Product Usage Instructions

Installation

1. Locate the sensor away from ventilation sources and heat-generating equipment.
2. Mount the sensor at light switch height in a vertical orientation with insulating material behind it for accuracy.
3. Avoid installing the sensor in multi-gang electrical boxes with line voltage or other electrical devices.

Operation

Press the MENU button to cycle between different settings:

• SCL: Scaling options for CO2 levels
• SPH: Setpoint High
• SPL: Setpoint Low
• ADJ: Manual calibration adjustment
• CAL: Automatic calibration – ON/OFF

Mounting

1. If mounting into a junction box, remove drywall clamps by turning screws counter-clockwise.
2. If mounting into drywall, turn both mounting clamps counter-clockwise, insert into the cutout, and tighten screws clockwise.

Calibration

Automatic Calibration feature tracks low ambient CO2 levels and adjusts for sensor drift due to aging. For continuous elevation of CO2 levels, use the dual-channel CO2 sensor with ABC disabled.

Troubleshooting

• No output: Check wiring and power supply.
• CO2 reading error: Verify control panel settings and test instrument accuracy.

FAQ

Q: Can the sensor be used in critical applications?

A: No, Senva products are not designed for life or safety applications.

Q: How to adjust the CO2 output scaling?

A: Press the MENU button and navigate to the SCL setting to choose different scaling options.

Q: What should I do if there is no CO2 output?

A: Check the wiring, power supply, and ensure correct configuration in the control panel software.

IMPORTANT WARNINGS

• The installer is responsible for all applicable codes
• De-energize power supply prior to installation or service

PRODUCT APPLICATION LIMITATION:
Senva products are not designed for life or safety applications. Senva products are not intended for use in critical applications such as nuclear facilities, human implantable device or life support. Senva is not liable, in whole or in part, for any claims or damages arising from such uses.

INSTALLATION

1. IMPORTANT! Locate sensor in an area away from ventilation sources and heat generating equipment and appliances. Sensor should be mounted at light switch height in a vertical orientation. Use insulating material behind sensor to ensure reading accuracy.
   NOTE: Do not install sensor in multi-gang electrical boxes with line voltage or other electrical devices.

2. Wire sensor as shown above.
3. Set DIP switch positions to accommodate your application. DIP switch 2 only applies to units with transmitter temperature output selected.

4. See mounting section.
5. Apply power to sensor.

OPERATION

Press center MENU button to cycle between:

The upper arrow and lower arrow will show the current setting and then adjusted values on consecutive presses.

For No Display:
0-2000ppm output and ABC is ON

• Relay only available with Display.
  **For continuously occupied areas or greenhouses, it is recommended to turn automatic calibration to ‘off’.
  CT1R-XXX-D (Dual Channel CO2) products will have with calibration ‘off’ by default.

TROUBLESHOOTING

TROUBLESHOOTING

Symptom| Solution
No output| Check wiring. Ensure power supply meets requirements.

CO2

reading error

| Verify control panel software is configured for correct output scaling.
Verify accuracy of test instrument. Observe installation and calibration guidelines
Install insulation foam gasket provided to pre- vent thermal conduction from inside wall.
Perform calibration only if necessary.

MOUNTING

IF MOUNTING INTO A JUNCTION BOX:

Remove drywall clamps by turning screws counter clockwise.

IF MOUNTING INTO DRYWALL:

1. Turn both mounting clamps all the way counter clockwise.

2. Insert into drywall cutout.

3. Turn screws clockwise to tighten drywall mounts until tight to wall.

CALIBRATION

Automatic Calibration feature:
The sensor will automatically track low ambient CO2 levels and gradually make adjustments to compensate for sensor drift due to long-term aging of the IR light source. In applications where CO2 levels are continuously elevated, or spaces are occupied day and night, it is recommended to use our dual channel CO2 sensor with ABC disabled.
Senva CO2 sensors are factory calibrated to controlled test gases. No field calibration is necessary or recommended. However, to facilitate compliance with job requirements and commissioning procedures, provisions for field calibration are provided:

1. Locate calibration instrument and sensor in close proximity to each other in a controlled environment free of drafts, peo-ple, and equipment to reduce influence on CO2 and tempera-ture.
2. Compare output of sensor to calibration instrument, and note difference. (In 0-10V mode/2000ppm range, 1V =200ppm)
3. Using the buttons on front of unit, adjust offset value for CO2 as needed. Factory calibration may be restored by setting offset back to 0.
