  • The product could be damaged if the wires are connected incorrectly.
  •  For details, refer to the Lossnay unit Installation Instructions.

Precautions

  • Airflow function is not available during the Lossnay unit fan speed is controlled by CO2 sensor.
    If fan speed should be controlled by CO2 sensor with unbalanced supply and exhaust air flow, please refer to section 6.8.

  • CO2 concentrations will differ depending on the usage environment and product installation conditions, therefore the value mea-sured by the CO2 sensor may differ from the actual CO2 concentration within the room.
    Additionally, for approximately 15 minutes after start-up, the measured values may differ significantly from the actual CO2 con-centration within the room.

  • The automatic calibration function recognizes the lowest CO2 concentrations, such as at night or when there are fewer people coming and going, as the standard value (corresponding to normal outside CO2 concentrations) and corrects these correspondingly, therefore the CO2 concentrations detected by the CO2 sensor and the actual CO2 concentration within the room may differ. Therefore, if this product is used in locations in which the outside CO2 concentration is normally higher than the standard value (such as near a major highway), or in an interior environment with higher-than-normal CO2 concentrations, then there may be a significant discrepancy between the actual CO2 concentrations and the detected concentrations. In these cases, use this product after configuring concentration correction settings (Section 6.5) of the sensor output using the remote controller (PZ/TZ-62DR series).

  • This CO2 sensor is intended for use in normal interior environments, and may not be able to correctly detect CO2 concentrations if used in rooms with extreme levels of dust, etc.

  • Sudden changes in temperature or humidity may adversely impact the detection accuracy of the CO2 sensor, causing the sensor to be unable to correctly detect the CO2 concentration within the room.

  • This product should not be used as a safety device to detect or prevent poisonous gases that could cause hypoxia or carbon monoxide poisoning, or flammable gases.

  • This product cannot be used in hot spring areas or other areas with high levels of sulfur dioxide. Doing so may lead to deteriora-tion of the CO2 sensor.

  • During night purge operation, auto fan speed by the CO2 sensor will not be possible.

  • Do not install the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight.

  • The lifetime of the product is 25,000 hours.

  • It is recommended to replace after the lifetime has been past.

Settings

To use the CO2 sensor for auto fan speed, configuration of settings on the remote controller (PZ/TZ-62DR series) or the Lossnay circuit board dip switch is required. Additionally, when using group control for multiple Lossnay units, configuration of address set-tings is required in order to configure different function settings between Lossnay units. For how to configure the settings, refer to the Installation Instructions for the Lossnay unit used and the remote controller.
Group control and settings from Section 6.4 onward can only be set when using the PZ/TZ-62DR series.

  1. Main unit settings
    When using a single CO2 sensor to group-control multiple Lossnay units, connect the Main Lossnay unit (Lossnay unit with the youngest address in the group) to the CO2 sensor.
    If not connecting a PZ/TZ-62DR series, group control will not be available.

  2. CO2 sensor setting
    In order to use the CO2 sensor for auto fan speed, set either the Lossnay unit dip switch or the remote controller function settings to “Connected to PZ- 70CSD-E.” Configuring these settings enables to use auto fan speed using the CO2 sensor.

    • If using a single CO2 sensor for group control of multiple Lossnay units, keep “CO2 sensor or BMS setting” for other than the Main Lossnay unit at factory setting.
    • When using group control for multiple Lossnay units, if connecting a CO2 sensor to each Lossnay unit, keep “CO2 sensor or BMS setting” in all Lossnay units to “PZ-70CSD-E connection,” and set “Input priority setting” to “Individual control priority.”
    • f using a remote controller, configure 6.4. CO2 sensor setting – maximum side and minimum side.
  3. Auto fan speed setting without Lossnay or M-NET centralized remote controller
    If not connecting remote controllers or M-NET centralized controllers to the Lossnay unit, set the “Auto fan speed setting without Lossnay or M-NET centralized remote controller” dip switch to ON.

  4. CO2 sensor setting – maximum side and minimum side
    The upper and lower limit of CO2 concentration are selectable.
    The Lossnay unit controls its fan speed according to the set upper and the lower limit. Refer to the example on below. Configure the settings from the remote controller CO2 control screen function settings. For how to configure the setting, refer to the Installation Instructions for the remote controller.

    • Upper limit available setting range: 600 (lower limit + 300) to 2000 ppm (increments of 50 ppm)

    • Lower limit available setting range: 300 to (upper limit – 300) ppm (increments of 50 ppm)

    • This automatically controls the amount of airflow with the set CO2 concentration as standard, however given that CO2 concentration detection will differ depending on the usage environment and product installation conditions, the value may exceed upper limit depending on the usage environment .

    • If not using a remote controller, automatic airflow control will be carried out at the factory default setting.

    • Factory default setting: Upper limit 1000 ppm, lower limit 450 ppm

    • Auto fan speed with the following limits:
    • CO2 upper limit: 1000 ppm

    • CO2 lower limit: 450 ppm

    • (Factory setting)

  5. CO2 sensor correction

    • The CO2 sensor recognizes the lowest CO2 concentration over the previous week as the standard value (corresponding to normal outside CO2 concentrations), and carries out calibration. The standard value for calibration is 400 ppm, however if this product is used in locations in which the outside CO2 concentration is normally higher than the standard value (such as near a major  highway), or in an interior environment with higher-than-normal CO2 concentrations, then there may be a significant discrepancy between the actual CO2 concentrations and the detected  concentrations. Therefore, configure the concentration correction function for CO2 sensor output.
    • For how to configure the setting, refer to “CO2 sensor correction” in the Installation Instructions for the Lossnay unit.
  6. CO2 concentration display setting
    When using a remote controller, the CO2 concentration can be displayed on the applicable Lossnay remote controller screen.

    • To set the CO2 concentration display, refer to the remote controller Installation Manual, and set “Display details setting > Sensor value” to “Yes.”
    • When displaying the CO2 concentration, the supply air temperature cannot be displayed at the same time.
    • The CO2 concentration display value may differ from the actual CO2 concentration within the room. This product cannot be used as a measurement device.
    • For approximately 15 minutes after turning the power on, or when changing 6.2 CO2 sensor setting, the CO2 sensor will be in warm-up operation. During warm-up operation, the remote controller CO2 concentration display will show “—ppm.”
    • For approximately 15 minutes after starting operation, The CO2 concentration display value may greatly differ from the actual CO2 concentration within the room.
    • The CO2 concentration display range is 400 to 2000 ppm.
  7. CO2 concentration correction
    The CO2 sensor detects CO2 concentration at the RA path in the Lossnay unit and CO2 concentration within the room varies. Thus, the CO2 concentration values displayed on the remote controller may differ from CO2 concentration values detected by environment measuring instruments. If there is a gap between the CO2 concentration values displayed on the remote controller and the environment measuring instrument, the display can be corrected by the remote controller function setting “CO2 concentration correction.”

  8.  Indoor negative / positive pressure setting at auto fan speed setting

    • At auto fan speed setting operation, supply fan or exhaust fan can be unbalanced to keep indoor negative or positive pressure. This function is N/A from Lossnay unit DIP-SW.
    • Below setting is example for LGH-RVS, TLGHFRVX(T)02A, LGH-FRVX(T)2 and LGH-RVX(T)3. For other products, refer to the manuals for the each products.
    • Select supply fan or exhaust fan to be power down comparing to the other at No. 94.
    • The percentage of power down can be selected at No. 95.
    • The unbalance setting can not be kept when the lower side fan power reaches 25%.
