Smartwares FGA-13900 - Air Quality Alarm Manual

GENERAL INFORMATION

This product has a high precision carbon dioxide infrared sensor, digital humidity and temperature sensor chip. It can detect and display CO² levels of the surrounding environment and give a corresponding warning. The alarm can be mounted to a wall, or placed anywhere in a room. Please read manual before use, and store it carefully for future use and maintenance.

• Scope of application: Carbon dioxide alarm for buildings with residential function.

Function: The LED display shows CO² concentration, ambient temperature and humidity. The alarm gives a voice broadcast when the CO² concentration levels are too high.

CO² concentration and display
This product can detect and display CO² concentration of the surrounding environment and give a corresponding warning. The default warning value is 1000ppm, and the default alarm value is 1500ppm.

Carbon dioxide levels and guidelines

Humidity level detection and guidelines
This product can detect and display humidity of the surrounding environment and give a corresponding warning. When humidity levels are too high (>90%RH) you hear a voice: "Humidity is abnormal". Ventilation is required.

Temperature level detection and guideline
This product can detect and display temperature of the surrounding environment and give a corresponding warning. When temperature levels are too low (<-5°C) or too high (>50°C) you hear a voice: "Temperature anomaly detected". Ventilation is required.

INSTALLATION

Power supply and startup
The product is equipped with an external AC power adapter and has a built-in backup rechargeable polymer lithium battery, which can work for 12 hours after AC power is cut off.

Wall mount installation
See image 2

• Determine the appropriate location for the alarm. Make sure there are no wires or pipes in the vicinity or within the walls.
• Determine the position of the two fixing holes on the mounting plate. The center distances of the two holes is 58mm.
• Drill two holes with a diameter of 5mm and depth of 30-40mm.
• Insert the two supplied plugs into the holes.
• Place the mounting plate over the holes, note the 'UP' signs on the mounting plate. Use the supplied screws to secure the mounting plate to the wall.
• Attach the alarm to the mounting plate by turning it clockwise.

OPERATION

Touch button function
SET / AUTO
Default setting of the alarm is the display alters between temperature, humidity and CO² level.

• Short press to manually set the display to temperature, humidity or CO² level.
• Long press to change temperature display between Celsius and Fahrenheit.

TEST/HUSH

• When the alarm detects a too high CO² level, the alarm sounds. Short press the TEST / HUSH button to silence the alarm for 10 minutes. Ventilation is required.
• Long press the TEST/HUSH button to test the voice broadcasting.

Turning off the alarm
You can manually turn the alarm off, so it does not sound when values are too high.

• Set the alarm to CO 2 level by pressing the SET/AUTO button until CO 2 level is displayed.
• Hold the SET/AUTO button for 3 seconds. 'OFF' will be visible on the display.
• To activate the alarm, hold the SET/AUTO button again for 3 seconds, 'ON' will be visible on the display.

Language setting
You can change the language of the voice by pressing the TEST / HUSH and SET / AUTO buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds. The language changes, long press again to go to the next language. Default language is English. The alarm supports German, French, Italian, Spanish and Dutch language.

Environmental light detection function
When the CO² concentration, temperature and humidity are within normal range and the ambient brightness is very low (at night, indoor lights are all off), the brightness of the product's display screen and indicator will automatically decrease to reduce the impact on user's sleep.
Normal brightness is displayed when CO² concentration, temperature or humidity is detected abnormal.

TECHNICAL DATA

* The Air quality alarm must be replaced after 5 years of use; after that period proper detection can no longer be guaranteed.
For indoor use only.
NOTE: This alarm detects carbon dioxide, it is not the same as a carbon monoxide detector. For CO detectors, please visit our website.

SAFETY MEASURES

• The alarm needs time to adapt to the current environment. In order to achieve a more accurate detection effect, it should continue to work for more than 24 hours after changing the use environment to complete automatic calibration. After completion, the calibration will not be completed at next startup.
• This product cannot be used in factories, warehouses and other industrial environments that may be in high CO a long time. The CO 2 detector used in industrial environments needs regular manual calibration.
• If the product is to be placed in a narrow space, the space should be well ventilated, especially the two diffusion windows should be in a well-ventilated position.
• The product should not be placed near a heat source. Avoid direct sunlight or other thermal radiation.
• This product should not be used in an environment with high dust density for a long time.
• Do not use the device in potentially explosive rooms.
• Do not remove any safety signs, stickers or labels from the device. Keep all safety signs, stickers and labels in legible condition.
• Do not open the device in case it is damaged.
