Identification and Overview
The BAPI CO
Sensor is an accurate and reliable way of incorporat-
2
ing demand controlled ventilation into a building's HVAC strategy. It
measures the CO
in a range of 0 to 2,000 ppm with a field selectable
2
output of 0 to 5 or 0 to 10 VDC.
The non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) technology has been optimized
to reduce drift. The sensor is also altitude compensated for long-
term accuracy and stability. Changing air pressure, due to altitude
or weather patterns, can change the output of most CO
as much as 17%. The BAPI unit has a built-in barometric sensor that
continuously compensates the output for accurate readings despite
inclement weather or the altitude of the installation.
The unit can be ordered as CO
sensing, temperature setpoint, occupant override and humidity sens-
ing. The large format display is easy to read and alternates between
the measured values (CO
also field adjustable between °F or °C and all the displayed values
may be turned on or off by an HVAC technician.
Optional indication of the CO
able as a three-color LED on the unit or as an arrow on the display.

Summary of Contents for BAPI CO2

  • Page 1 CO sensors by as much as 17%. The BAPI unit has a built-in barometric sensor that continuously compensates the output for accurate readings despite inclement weather or the altitude of the installation.
  • Page 2: Junction Box

    The mixing of room air and air from within the wall cavity can lead to condensation, er- roneous readings and sensor failure. To prevent these conditions, BAPI recommends sealing the conduit leading to the junction box, filling the junction box with fiberglass insulation or sealing the wall cavity.
  • Page 3 All wiring must comply with the National Electric Code (NEC) and local codes. Do NOT run this device’s wiring in the same conduit as AC power wiring. BAPI’s tests show fluctuating and inaccurate signals are possible when AC power wiring is in the same conduit as the signal lines.
  • Page 4: User Operation

    The display indicates CO in PPM, temperature in °F or °C, %RH, temperature setpoint in degrees °F or °C and override BAPI Man using the BAPI Man icon. The three triangle icons are used Icon with the –ARW option to show CO levels.

    Compare the temperature sensor’s resistance to the appropriate temperature sensor table on the BAPI website. (Go to www.bapihvac.com; click on “Resource Library” and “Sensor Specs”, then click on the sensor type you have.) If the measured resistance differs from the temperature table by more than 5%, call BAPI technical support.
