IMPORTANT
These instructions are intended as a general guide and do not supersedes local codes in any way. Authorities having jurisdiction should be consulted before installation.

Installation

Mounting Bracket and Sensor
  1. Make the appropriate wiring preparations.

  2. Use the mounting bracket as a template to mark mounting holes or mount to a junction box.

  3. Run the wiring through the backplate and make necessary wire connections.

  4. Mount the cover on the sensor. Secure the cover to the sensor backplate with the two provided set screws using a 1/16” hex driver.

Wiring Instructions

The location and connections to the Lennox rooftop units with the unit controller are shown in figures 1 and 2. Wire from sensor terminal COM should be spliced to provide ground and signal common.
Wiring Instructions
Figure 1. Field Wiring – 150’ (46m) or Shorter Runs
Wiring Instructions
Figure 2. Field Wiring – 150’ (46m) or Longer Runs

The connections to the Lennox rooftop units without the unit controller are shown in figure 3.
Wiring Instructions

For applications that require the Lennox CO2 sensor interface to a non−Lennox controller, please refer to controller manufacturer’s instructions.

  • Use 18 AWG copper wire.
  • Data Logging: If data logging is desired, the output terminal (4−20 mA) may be used with a field−provided data logging device
ABC LogicTM Self Calibration System

This feature allows the sensor to continually recalibrate itself when the indoor CO2 concentrations drop to outside levels while the building is unoccupied. A building must be unoccupied for 4 hours or more for this self−calibration system to operate properly. Under these conditions, ABC Logic should maintain sensor calibration over the lifetime of the sensor. The ABC Logic should be turned OFF where a building is continuously occupied 24 hours per day, or where there could be significant sources of non−occupant related CO2 such as greenhouses, breweries and other industrial and food processing applications.
