Note 3: Sensor requires to be exposed to fresh air at least every four weeks. Accuracy is defined after minimum 5 weeks of continuous operation. However, some industrial applications do require maintenance. Please, contact SenseAir for further information! Note 4: Accuracy is specified over operating temperature range.

Installation and soldering During installation and assembly of sensor to PCB it is essential that compatible materials are used and that soldering process is managed. Avoid introduction of stress to the sensor’s PCB or OBA. SenseAir recommends hand soldering only.
9 pins 29.7 ±0.1 Maintenance ® SenseAir The models based on platform are basically maintenance free in normal environments thanks to the built-in self-correcting ABC algorithm. Discuss your application with CO2Meter in order to get advice for a proper calibration strategy.
® Table 5. Switch input default configurations for SenseAir Self-diagnostics The system contains complete self-diagnostic procedures. A full system test is executed automatically every time the power is turned on. In addition, constantly during operation, the sensor probes are checked against failure by checking the valid dynamic measurement ranges.

Memory Error with software tools. Error during memory operations. Reserved ® SenseAir Table 6. Error codes for Note 1. Any probe is out of range. Occurs, for instance, during over-exposure of CO sensor, in which case the error code will automatically reset when the measurement values return to normal. Could also indicate the need of zero point calibration.
