Belden #9842 or equivalent. Warm-Up And Operation All AirAware versions operate on 12-24 VDC. The Monitor version includes a 120 VAC power pack for North American electrical sockets (not included in the International version) that supplies 24 VDC to the instrument. -
Page 9: Set-Up Mode
Each AirAware utilizes electrochemical sensors that may require between 10 and 360 minutes (gas dependent) or 12-16 hours for NH and HCl to stabilize when initially activated. During this warm-up period, the unit may display concentrations of gas and possibly alarm. - Page 10 A flashing decimal point on the lower right corner of the display will appear for 3 minutes after start-up, calibration, bump, or programming. This is an indicator that the 4-20 mA signal is locked at 3 mA and that all alarm functions are disabled. Once this flashing indicator clears all functions will return to normal. AirAware...

Page 18: Modbus Interface
ModBus Interface The AirAware is a ModBus RTU compliant instrument. Please consult the factory for detailed information of ModBus registers and settings for board jumpers P1, P2 and P3. Bump (function) Testing Bump (function) testing is the act of applying a known concentration of gas to the monitor and verifying that the instrument is performing properly. -
Page 19: Zeroing
If the unit displays "FAIL" try again ensuring the area is free of the target gas. If the unit fails a second time the sensor may need to be replaced. Contact Industrial Scientific Oldham Corporation for a replacement sensor; see page 24 for ordering information. -
Page 20: Calibration
Calibrating the AirAware is simply applying a known concentration of gas to the unit, and “telling” the unit to self-adjust to read that concentration. The calibration values are pre-programmed into the instrument in order to simplify the procedure. -
Page 21: Sensor Replacement
NOTE: Use only Industrial Scientific Oldham test gas equipment. Sensor Replacement Occasionally, AirAware sensors will need to be replaced. Repeated failures of zero, calibration, and bump tests can be indications that the sensor has degraded. Replacement sensors are available from authorized Industrial Scientific Oldham distributors. - Page 22 • Replace cover, and reapply power. Once powered, the display will briefly show the symbol for the gas being monitored, then a live display of the gas concentration. Each AirAware utilizes electrochemical sensors that may require between 10 and 360 minutes (gas dependent) or 12-16 hours for NH3 and HCl to stabilize when initially activated.
