General Description ® The AirGard 200 monitor is designed to continuously monitor air flow through fume hoods. This permanently installed device provides both visual and audible alarms to alert the user of abnormal air flow conditions after the instrument is calibrated for the particular installation.
Setup ® The AirGard 200 fume hood monitor contains several configuration options. Two connectors provide access to remote control devices and firmware configuration jumpers. Observe the back of the monitor. Locate the two connectors at the left- center of the printed circuit board marked J3 and JP1.

Pole 1 of JP1 is used to select the relay configuration. Without the jumper installed, the relay is Normally Closed (NC) during normal air flow and Normally Open (NO) during an alarm condition. Installing a shorting jumper across pole 1 will cause the relay to be Normally Open (NO) during normal air flow and Normally Closed (NC) during an alarm condition.
Installation General ® Installation of the AirGard monitor generally requires the fume hood to have a cut out section as shown in Figure 3. To monitor face velocity, the air Figure 3: outlet port at the back of the Front view of fascia ®...

WARNING Older hoods may contain asbestos. Always take special precautions when dealing with this material. Step 2: Drill 4 mounting holes in the fascia, 2.5 mm diameter as shown on the template. Step 3: Snap in the snap bushing supplied onto the hole used for the power connection in the back enclosure and mount in the cut out on the fascia with 4 screws supplied.

WARNING This method is only used as a temporary condition to set the low flow point. Make sure air flow is restored to proper level after calibration. Step 5: Using a properly calibrated thermoanemometer, determine the velocity through the face of the hood by taking a detailed velocity traverse.
Step-By-Step Operation Alarm Acknowledgment The horn and red indicator will turn on approximately six seconds after an alarm condition is detected. To mute the horn, press and release the TEST/RESET button. Note that after an alarm condition has been detected, the red indicator will stay on. The horn will remain muted until air flow is restored to normal levels.
APPENDIX A: Maintenance & Troubleshooting Maintenance ® The outside of the AirGard 200 monitor may be wiped clean with mild soap (dish washing detergent) and water on a damp cloth to remove finger marks, oils or residue. Do not use abrasives or solvents.
