Page 3: Introduction
To evaluate the performance of the filtration and HVAC systems ● This guide will assist you in determining the best place to install your Kaiterra Square air quality monitors for individual rooms, large open spaces, and entire building projects. This guide will also cover power considerations, network considerations, and device configuration so you are best prepared to handle your upcoming installation project. -
Page 4: Layout Considerations
Locker Rooms Not recommended For any of Kaiterra’s enterprise air quality monitors, we recommend an area coverage of 3,500ft² 325m²) with the area of each enclosed space calculated individually*. *Our guidelines follow the standards outlined in RESET and WELL v2 for sensor area coverage... - Page 5 IAQ monitoring and the budget available for the project. Feel free to contact your account representative at Kaiterra to discuss this further. The following is a sample floor plan that demonstrates how our air quality monitors should be distributed throughout a typical building floor plan.

E. Hard-wired to a permanent power source (recommended but not mandatory). *Note: this aligns with ASHRAE 62.1 Kaiterra Square Air Quality Monitor Deployment Guide... - Page 8 Other things to consider: Air is drawn into the Kaiterra Square from all sides of the device. None of the sides ● of the device must be covered as any changes in the airflow may aect the readings and accuracy of our devices.

Page 9: Enclosed Spaces
Enclosed Spaces Definition: A room enclosed by four walls and a door, which is smaller than 3,500ft². Kaiterra Square Air Quality Monitor Deployment Guide... - Page 10 1 is acceptable. Kaiterra air quality monitors should be as central to the room as possible. Because ● of this, location two 2 is not ideal. However, since the door on the right is 40 feet 12 meters) away, the installer could shift location two 2 toward the center of the room to become a beer option.
- Page 11 As a comparison, the same example now has a diuser and a window added to the layout. Given the RESET placement requirements and Kaiterra’s best practices, the only acceptable air quality monitor placement for this scenario is position three 3 : It is centrally located especially for the regularly occupied space in the room ●...

Page 12: Open Spaces
Within 16 feet (~5 meters) of operable windows, doors, air filters, and air diusers ● Within 3 feet 0.9 meters) of occupants and workstations ● Kaiterra Square Air Quality Monitor Deployment Guide... - Page 13 Since the space has three 3 general sections that will be regularly occupied, the priority areas would be the top-left, top-right, and boom-right, which, given the 10,000ft² 929m²) of the entire space, can be divided evenly for optimal coverage using the suggested monitor placements. Kaiterra Square Air Quality Monitor Deployment Guide...
- Page 14 However, you could reduce the number of monitors in the space from three 3 to two 2 by removing the boom monitor as this would still provide great coverage of the regularly occupied areas. Kaiterra Square Air Quality Monitor Deployment Guide...

Page 15: Power Considerations
Power Considerations There are two 2 models for the Kaiterra Square: One supports Low Voltage DC power The other supports 220V AC Power For instructions on how to properly power your Kaiterra Square, please refer to our Kaiterra Square Installation... -
Page 16: Network And Data Considerations
● Secondary MQTT via Wi-Fi ● Open API via Wi-Fi (via the Kaiterra Cloud) ● Some network connections may require additional wiring, such as RS-485 for Modbus communication. We do not provide any additional wiring with our devices, so if you wish to use any of the communication protocols above, please make sure you are able to properly connect to them and provide any necessary wiring. - Page 17 Wi-Fi connection to the Internet. This will allow your data to be uploaded to the Kaiterra Cloud and Dashboard for ease of access via Primary MQTT and also enables many other communications and features that require the Internet, such as our Open API and the Kaiterra Dashboard.
- Page 18 If it is required to whitelist the MAC address of your device for Internet network access, the MAC address for the Kaiterra Square can be found directly on the device, under the front cover. While Internet Network connectivity is recommended, our Kaiterra Air Quality Monitors can be used in oine seings.

Page 19: Dashboard Setup
Dashboard Setup The Kaiterra Web App Dashboard allows you to view the data from your Kaiterra air quality monitors. Log in to your account at app.kaiterra.com. Then, click “Add Device” and use the Unique Identifier UDID of each device to add them to the dashboard. - Page 20 However, for large scale projects, the process of adding each individual device to the Kaiterra Web App Dashboard can be diicult. When configuring a device with the Kaiterra Enterprise Configuration Tool, it saves every device you configure under the Options →...
- Page 21 Once all of the devices are added to the Kaiterra Web App Dashboard, there are plenty of things you can do with it, such as creating alerts to notify you when a pollutant reading has gone too high or you can put your air quality readings on display using our Kiosk View.

Page 22: Device Setup
● Cross Screwdriver ● Electrical Tape ● RS-485 Communication Cable (Optional) ● Other protection measures, such as a standard electrical box For proper wiring procedures, please refer to the Kaiterra Square Installation Guide. Kaiterra Square Air Quality Monitor Deployment Guide... -
Page 23: Device Configuration
When the Kaiterra Square is powered on, the device will enter Configuration Mode for 15 minutes, which will be indicated by a flashing status light on the device. This configuration mode causes the Kaiterra Square to broadcast a WiFi Access Point signal, allowing you to connect directly to the device. - Page 24 Select the “Configure” tab to configure the device. For basic configuration, fill in the information for: Project for easier project identification via the History tab ● Device (Name) for easier device identification on the dashboard ● Wi-Fi seings ● Once complete, scroll to the boom and click “Configure device”. The device will then use your configured seings to connect to the network.
- Page 25 Secondary MQTT (Broker URI, Broker Port, and Frequency) ● Modbus (Address, Rate, Parity, and AQI Calculation) ● Once complete, click “Configure device” at the boom. The device will then use your configured seings to connect to the network/BMS. Kaiterra Square Air Quality Monitor Deployment Guide...
