Bulletin AQ-CDWP-2
The Series CDWPCarbon Dioxide Transmitter accurately monitors the CO2
concentration in industrial and indoor environments to help achieve energy savings.
For increased sensor life and accuracy, a single-beam dual-wavelength non-dispersive
infrared (NDIR) sensor is used to eliminate light source aging effects. The singlebeam dual-wavelength sensor technology provides the highest level of accuracy
compared to Automatic Baseline Correction methods, which can unintentionally shift
the calibration based on CO2 levels and barometric pressure conditions.
Universal outputs allow users to select the transmitter output to be 4-20 mA, 0-5
VDC, or 0-10 VDC to work with virtually any building management controller or
programmable logic controller.
The CDWP utilizes a rugged IP54 aluminum housing with an exterior gray nish coat
that was tested to withstand a 168 hour salt spray corrosion test. This ruggedized
housing helps to protect the sensor from splashing liquid and airborne dust or debris
making the Series CDWP a great t for animal husbandry applications and conned
feeding operations.
Single-beam dual-wavelength sensor advantages:
• Automatically corrects for aging effects in occupied and unoccupied spaces
• Measures actual unltered light intensity directly
• Eliminates error from incorrect assumptions of gas concentration in theoretical
logic assumption methods

CALIBRATING SENSOR
To calibrate the sensor please follow the below steps in conjunction with Figure 6.
Note: Calibration requires display accessory A-449 which must be plugged into the
port left of the switches.
Step 1: Remove the unit’s cover.
Step 2: Remove one of the gas nipple covers on the CO2 sensor and attach tubing
from the gas pressure regulator to the nipple.
Step 3: Attach the terminal block accessory to the circuit board so that the power wires
line up with terminals 1 and 2. Plug in the power supply to power up the
transmitter. Allow 30 minutes for the transmitter to warm up.
Step 4: Hold housing so that the sensor is in the vertical plane.
Step 5: Flow zero reference gas at 0.3 SLPM for 5 minutes.
Step 6: Press and hold the SW1 (Up) and SW3 (Down) buttons simultaneously for
5 seconds to enter the menu parameters. The “RON” parameter will display
on your A-449 accessory.
Step 7: Use the SW1 (Up) or SW3 (Down) buttons to access the calibration parameter
menu which will display as “CAL”.
Step 8: Press the SW2 (Enter) button. “SET” will then appear on the display.
Step 9: Press the SW3 (Down) arrow for 3 seconds. All dashes will appear on the
display, then release the button. Then after 10 seconds “SET” will disappear.
Step 10: Exit the parameter menu by pressing and holding the SW1 (Up) and SW3
(Down) buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds or wait 10 seconds.
Step 11: Flow the full scale reference gas at 0.3 SLPM for 5 minutes.
Step 12: Repeat steps 6 through 8.
Step 13: Press the SW1 (Up) arrow for 3 seconds. All dashes will appear on the
display, then release the button. Then after 10 seconds “SET” will disappear.
Step 14: Exit the parameter menu by pressing and holding the SW1 (Up) and SW3
(Down) buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds or wait 10 seconds.
Step 15: Disconnect the power supply from the power source and remove the terminal
block from the circuit board.
Step 16: Remove tubing from sensor and re-attach the gas nipple covers to the sensor.
Step 17: Re-attach the cover.
