Page 5: Introduction
The CO2 Sensor measures CO levels in an agricultural environment. Working in conjunction with a controller, the CO2 Sensor sends a signal when the measured CO levels fall outside the user-defined specifications. This signal activates the controller’s ventilation. Refer to Figure 1. -
Page 6: Operating Mode
O perating Mode The CO2 Sensor operates in a Current Loop mode (4 - 20 milliamps). In this mode, the CO 2 Sensor provides a signal proportional to CO 2 levels. NOTE: Verify that J2 is not shorted (refer to Figure 2). -

Page 10: Calibrating The Device
The C02 sensor comes calibrated. In normal conditions fresh air should have approximately 350 - 450 ppm CO2. Calibrate the device if the following conditions are met: • The CO2 sensor is exposed to fresh air or a room with open windows • The sensor reading is above 550 To calibrate the sensor: 1. -
Page 11: Disconnecting The Sensor
2.4 Disconnecting the Sensor Before cleaning the poultry/animal house, disconnect the CO2 sensor. To disconnect the sensor: 1. Dismount the sensor from the wall. 2. Separate the male and female plugs. Figure 13: Plugs Separated 3. Place the plug cap on the female cap. -
Page 12: Maintenance And Care
M AINTENANCE AND CARE The CO2 Sensor requires little or no maintenance. The following are general maintenance rules: • Avoid damaging the CO2 Sensor box • Avoid contact with water or other fluids (when you clean the poultry house, remove the box) •...
