Wall Mounting Instruction
1. Dismount the wall plate. The sensor is delivered with the wall plate mounted.
The wall plate has to be removed before the sensor is mounted onto the wall.
Unscrew the screw on the side of the box. See figure 3.
2. Screw the wall plate onto the wall. The sensor should be mounted 1 to 1,8 m
above the floor. The wall plate has holes for three screws. Drill holes for 3,5mm
screws and put dowel into them. Dowels and screws 3,5 x 25mm are included
in a plastic bag
3. Attach the sensor box to the wall plate. It is done by a snap-in fitting. The wall
plate has three hooks that fit in holes in the sensor box. Fasten the screw on the
side of the box.
4. Electrical cable entry . T he box has a fact ory mounted cable entry bushing in
dimension PG9. Never feed more than one cable through each cable entry
bushing, or else gas might leak through!
The lid can be locked with the screw (11) at the bottom of the sensor box.

handled carefully and protec t ed fr om el ect rostatic discharge.

Electrical connections
The power supply has to be connected to and . is considered as
system ground. The same ground reference has to be used for the CF8-W-Disp-CO unit
and for any connected devic e! Unless different transformers are used, special
precautions need to be taken.
PLEASE NOTE! The signal ground is not galvanically separated
from the CF8-W-Disp-CO power supply!
PLEASE NOTE! The same ground reference has to be used for
the CF8-W-Disp-CO unit and for the control system!

Note 1: The ground terminal is used as negative power supply DC i nput or AC phase ground
(halfwave rectifier) . The signal ground M, protected by a PTC res istor, is the same as power ground
G0 (permitting a ”3-wire” configuration). A single transformer may be used for the entire system.
Note 2: CF8-W-Disp-CO can deliver both a v oltage or a current loop for Out(1) /Out(2). For Out(4) a
voltage output or an open collect or output is selected with jumper Out(4). T o change between volta ge
and current output mod e the hardware jumper s are used. Ther e is one jumper for Out(1) and one for
Out(2), so that one outp ut can be a v oltage output a nd the ot her a c urrent output. Both, v oltage output
and current output, can ha ve start points 0 % (0-10 VD C or 0-20mA) or 20% (2-10 VDC or 4-20mA)
selected from PC software. See the user manual.

If more holes are needed the box has several drill markings for holes in two

The PCB can be removed during the making of holes. The PCB must be handled
carefully and protected from electrostatic discharge!
Start-up of the CF8-W-Disp-CO
Connect the power directly after mounting. The unit works best if the sensor is
continuously powered. The analogue outputs do not need to be connected before
use. An internal delay function prevents the alarm functions of the relay and OUT4
output during 2 minutes after power up. After short power failures the CO
measurements need this power up time to stabilize. The alarm outputs may be tested
after the 2 minutes delay by shorting the switch DI1. After long power failures the
sensor may need several days to restore the measuring functions.
NOTE! The CO probe gives incorrect readings near some chemicals, e
g silicone. This makes certain environments unsuitable for the sensor.
