    Chapter 2 – Product overview 2. Product overview 2.1 Introduction to GMW80 series Vaisala GMW80 series CARBOCAPâ carbon dioxide, humidity, and temperature transmitters are wall-mount transmitters designed to fulfill the needs for CO measurements in standard demand controlled ventilation applications. The following table lists the GMW80 series transmitters and their features.
  • Page 10 GMW80 Series User Guide M211748EN-G The CO measurement is based on the Vaisala proprietary CARBOCAPâ sensor, which uses a novel, silicon-based microchip emitter instead of an incandescent light bulb. The internal reference in the CO sensor guarantees the best stability and operation also in constantly occupied buildings without frequent readjustments.

Interior walls and columns are typically suitable locations. The installation height should be 1.2 ... 1.8 m (4 ... 6 ft). Figure 15 Examples of good installation locations Seal the cable opening when bringing a cable through the wall.

    Chapter 3 – Installation • On points that experience excessive vibration. Figure 16 Examples of unsuitable installation locations 3.2 Opening and closing the transmitter GMW80 series transmitters are delivered from the factory with a pull tab that makes it easy to open the transmitter for installation. Note that the GMW87 and GMW88 models are opened and closed with 4 screws instead of an opening tab.
  • Page 26: Installing The Mounting Base

    GMW80 Series User Guide M211748EN-G 1. To open the transmitter after it has been installed: a. Loosen the locking screw if it has been installed. b. Use a flat screwdriver to push down the tab that holds the transmitter cover and mounting base together, and pull the top of the transmitter cover away from the mounting base.
  • Page 27 Chapter 3 – Installation 2. Use the mounting holes to attach the mounting base securely. Use at least two screws (not included). The mounting holes are suitable for the most common European, American, and Asian mounting boxes. The mounting base can be twisted on to pre- mounted screws.

  • Page 29: Wiring

    With passive Pt1000 sensors the length of the cables affects the accuracy of the measurement reading, since the connection is susceptible to electrical interference. Vaisala recommends using shielded twisted pair cables, with the shield grounded. When using a shielded cable, do not connect the shield to the transmitter.
  • Page 30: Figure 19 Locations Of The Breakaway Tabs

    GMW80 Series User Guide M211748EN-G WARNING! Connect only de-energized wires. CAUTION! Do not route the cable through the area marked NO CABLES on the mounting base. That space is taken up by the CO measurement module when the transmitter cover is attached. You can also bring the cable to the housing from above or below, but you have to break off the small plastic tab that covers the hole on top or bottom of the housing.
