Troubleshooting Carbon Dioxide (CO
2
) Sensors
The UVC is congured to use a 0–2000 PPM, 0–10 VDC, single beam absorption infra-
red gas sensor. Each sensor is calibrated according to the table shown.
Use the following procedure to troubleshoot a suspect sensor.
1. Disconnect the sensors output voltage lead from the UVC analog input (xAI-3).
2. Using some other calibrated CO
2
sensing device, take a CO
2
reading at the sensor
location.
3. Use the CO
2
reading from Step 2 to determine the expected sensor voltage from
Table 25.
4. Using a calibrated multi-meter, measure the actual voltage across the lead removed
from xAI-3 and ground.
5. Compare the expected voltage to the actual voltage.
6. If the actual voltage value deviates substantially (more than 10%) from the expected
voltage, replace the sensor.
In the unlikely event that the CO
2
sensor requires calibration, consult the factory for
information on obtaining calibration equipment and instructions.
