Wireless CO₂ Sensor
Overview
The Wireless CO₂ Sensor (RCT) uses wireless
technology to communicate accurate indoor
CO
, temperature, and relative humidity
2
readings to compatible controllers.
The solar panel harvests and stores sufficient
energy for normal operation. A CR2032
battery is used for calibrations and backup
assistance if required.
This document covers installation, testing, and
basic setup of the RCT. The product package
includes the sensor and a battery.
Prepare for Installation
To ensure optimal function, consider the
installation environment and the following
guidelines:
For indoor, commercial controls use only. Operating temperature
•
-25°C to 50°C (-13°F to 122°F) and relative humidity 5%–95%.
High density construction materials and large metal appliances or
•
fixtures in the space may disrupt wireless transmissions.
Install the sensor within range of the gateway or interface to the
•
monitoring system, 24 m (80 ft) unobstructed view. Consider adding
a repeater to extend the wireless signal, if required.
CR2032 coin cell battery is provided with the sensor. Install the
•
battery or activate it if factory-installed by removing the protective
plastic tab in the battery housing. See
Find a suitable location that has good light exposure. Use the
•
Level Test on page 3
Plan for at least 20 minutes outdoors for the sensor to calibrate an
•
ambient air baseline. See
Supplies required to install (not provided):
Two #6 screws, double-sided tape, or Velcro

The green LED then repeats a number of blinks according to the detected light level. The sensor reevaluates the light level every two seconds. - Page 5 Echoflex Installation Guide Wireless CO₂ Sensor CO₂ Calibration Setting The sensor provides an Automatic Background Calibration (ABC) option that can be set indoors. ABC is enabled by default. ABC is a feature that measures the lowest level of CO that occurs over a three-week period to establish an ambient air baseline and assign the value 420 ppm to this lowest value.
