Installing the Sensor
!WARNING!
Before performing service or maintenance operations on
the systems, turn OFF main power switches to the unit.
Electric shock can cause personal injury. Please read and
follow the wiring instructions precisely; miswiring may
cause permanent damage to the product.
Basic Installation for Non-Display Units
1. Separate the case into its front and rear sections.
2. Secure the rear section of the case to the wall or junction box using
the supplied screws, and make necessary wire connections.
3. Mount the Controller on the base by aligning the top clips and then
securing to the bottom clips. Secure the Ventostat with the supplied
set screw. A one-minute stabilization warmup will take place.

4. When fitting the T8300 /T8400 (pitot tube version), complete the
installation by screwing the tube connectors to the input ports on the
sensor. The tubing connectors can be attached to either input port. It
will not affect the performance of the sensor. (See page 3 for further
instructions.)

Ventostat Wiring Diagrams
The Ventostat family of products has two basic configurations. One
configuration provides three active outputs (CO2, RH and temperature)
and an independent thermistor. It has an output terminal block with pins
#1, 2 and 3. The other configuration provides only CO2outputs and an
independent thermistor and has no terminal block with pins 1, 2, and 3
installed. For electrical wiring and power supply requirements, these two
configurations are identical; please follow the specific instructions for
wiring. The recommended wire gauge is 18-22AWG (1.0 to 0.75
metric).
!WARNING!
Ventostat products have three terminal pins that are
connected inside the sensor to a common/ground: pin
#2, 5 and 7 on the I/O terminal blocks and pin #2 on the
power block. Do NOT connect positive (hot) 24 VAC power
line to terminal number 2 of the terminal block.
Caution!
The T8100 Ventostats are either 3-wire or 4-wire type
configurations, powered by either AC or DC voltage. They
are not 2-wire or loop-powered devices. Wiring the units as
2-wireorloop-powereddeviceswillirreparablydamagethe
sensors and void the warranty.
Note: For temperature measurements, Ventostat models contain a
passive thermistor (terminal pins #4 and 5), which is
electrically isolated from the other circuitry and should be
wired independently from active CO2/RH/temperature outputs.
The thermistor has no connection to the Ventostat common
ground and/or power.
The active temperature output has the same common (ground)
as CO2and RH outputs.

Sensing Duct CO2 Concentrations
Duct-Mounting the Enclosures
Ventostat products can be installed inside the return air ductwork, if
needed. As an alternative, please consider the T8031 unit. When
mounting these products inside the ductwork, seal the hole around the
wires and leave the duct insulation in place to prevent condensation
which may damage the sensor.
Pitot Tube Installation for T8300/T8300-D and
T8400/T8400-D
Install the mounting bracket, then install the pitot tube assembly as
follows:
Note: The length of the Tygon® tubing is 6 ft. (1.8 m) with the
optional T62892 pitot kit for the T8300. In order to maintain
optimum accuracy, the tubing should not be lengthened. If the
sensor is mounted closer than 3 ft. (0.9 m) the excess tubing
should be shortened to avoid interference with mechanical or
moving devices.
1. To mount the pitot tube, drill one 7/8” hole through the duct.
2. Insert the pitot tube and mark the two remaining holes for the
mounting screws.
3. Punch or drill the two marked holes.
4. Note the direction of airflow in the duct.
5. Note the marking on the pitot tube flange and insert so that it is
properly aligned with the airflow.
6. To ensure an air tight seal, make sure the mounting surface of the
duct is clear of dirt or obstructions. Then, attach the pitot tube to the
duct with sheet metal screws or rivets.
7. Check the length of the tubing before attaching to the sensor. The
tubing should connect without stretching or pulling. If the length is
long enough to create a loop or bind in the tubing, it should be
shortened.
8. To shorten the tubing, remove the connectors that attach to the
sensor and cut the tubing to length.
9. Replace the tubing connectors by using a twisting or screwing
motion. Verify the connection is secure.
Note: If the tubing length has been shortened, be sure the in-line filter
is replaced on the pitot tube connector marked with an “H”.
Accessory Enclosures
Model T1508 Duct Mount Enclosure (Aspiration Box)

ABC Logic™ Self Calibration System
ABC Logic™ (Automatic Background Calibration) self calibration
allows the sensor to continually recalibrate itself when the indoor
concentrations drop to outside levels while the building is unoccupied.
Generally a building must be regularly unoccupied for 4 hours or more
for this self-calibration system to operate properly. Under these
conditions, ABC Logic™ should maintain sensor calibration over the
lifetime of the sensor. The ABC Logic™ should be turned OFF where a
building is continuously occupied 24 hours per day, or where there could
be significant sources of non-occupant related CO2such as greenhouses,
breweries and other industrial and food processing applications.
