SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installing, starting up and servicing HVAC (heating, ventila-
tion, and air conditioning) equipment can be hazardous due to
system pressures, electrical components and equipment
locations.
Only trained, qualified installers and service technicians
should install, start up and service this equipment.
When working on HVAC equipment, observe precautions
in the literature, labels attached to the equipment and any other
safety precautions that apply. Follow all safety codes. Wear
safety glasses and work gloves. Use care when handling and
installing the sensor.
Understand the signal words DANGER, WARNING, and
CAUTION. These words are used with the safety alert
symbol . DANGER identifies the most serious hazards
which will result in severe personal injury or death.
WARNING signifies a hazard which could result in personal
injury or death. CAUTION is used to identify unsafe practices
which would result in minor personal injury or property
damage.
GENERAL
The CO2sensor (Fig. 1) is designed to monitor carbon
dioxide (CO2) levels in the return air and interface with the
ComfortLink™ controller on the rooftop air-conditioning unit.
The sensor perceives CO2levels in the 0 to 2,000 parts per
million (ppm) range and provides outputs indicating this level.
The unit utilizes a 4 to 20-mA analog signal. The ComfortLink
controller uses this signal to control the economizer damper
position and ensure adequate level of outside air in the
building. This is one of several approved methods of control-
ling the indoor-air quality (IAQ) in a building and meets the
requirements of local building codes and ASHRAE (American
Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning
Engineers) Standard 62. The control sensor features a mem-
brane-covered waveguide and sample chamber that produces
stable, reliable, and highly accurate carbon dioxide readings.
The sensor is self-calibrating and should not need to be
manually calibrated.
Check Package Contents — Remove accessory pack-
aging and inspect shipment for damage. If any damage is found,
file a claim with the shipping agent immediately. If any item is
missing or any part does not assemble properly, notify your
Carrier distributor. Table 1 lists the accessory package contents.

*Do not use the electrical harness provided in this kit for 48/50P and
48/50Z units.
WARNING
Prior to installation of this accessory, make sure all power
is disconnected to the unit and locked out. Failure to dis-
connect power supply prior to servicing may result in seri-
ous injury.

screws (see Fig. 3).
5. Wire the electrical harness to the sensor as shown in
Fig. 3 and 4.
6. Remove the blankout plate from the partition, just above
the auxiliary control box.
7. Attach the sensor to the mounting plate.
8. Mount the bracket to the partition using 2 sheet metal
screws (see view F in Fig. 2).
9. Connect the electrical harness (PL18).
10. Restore power to unit.
48/50P and 48/50Z Units — The CO2sensor is to be
installed in the predrilled holes located in the power exhaust
section. See Fig. 5-11.
1. Shut off unit power supply.
2. Open the power exhaust section doors/panels to gain
access.
3. Remove the sensor and cover from the sensor mounting
plate.
4. Secure mounting plate to the bracket with no. 8 screws.
5. The electrical wire harness for the CO2sensor is factory
installed. Locate the four wires in the power exhaust
section. Wire the electrical harness to the sensor as shown
in Fig. 4.
6. Attach the sensor to the mounting plate.
Mount the bracket to the appropriate location:
size 030-050 units with power exhaust, see Fig. 5 and 6.
size 030-050 units with economizer only, see Fig. 7.
size 030-050 units with no economizer or power exhaust,
see Fig. 8.

START-UP
After applying power, the CO2 sensor will enter a warm-up
mode. Warm-up duration will be from 1 to 10 minutes. The
warm-up duration will be shorter in warmer temperatures and
longer in cooler temperatures. During warm-up, the signal
output will be 4 mA. Once the unit has warmed up, the voltage
or current output will be set up to indicate the CO2 level. The
display will show a steady reading 1 minute later.
Configuring the ComfortLink™ Controller —
The CO2 sensor is defaulted to provide 4 mA at 0 ppm and
20 mA at 2000 ppm. If a different range is necessary, contact
Carrier Application Engineering to reconfigure the sensor. If
the sensor is reconfigured, the mA range on the ComfortLink
controller must be configured to match the new values. Refer
to Controls and Troubleshooting Guide for configuration
details.
Sensor Self Calibration — The CO2sensors employ a
self-calibration system. The system eliminates the need for
manual calibration in applications where the indoor CO2level
drops to outside levels during unoccupied periods (e.g., during
evening hours). A special software routine in the sensor re-
members the background readings for 14 consecutive eve-
nings, calculates if there is a sensor drift, and then corrects for
it.
NOTE: This only applies when used in typical indoor or ambi-
ent air conditions. Consult Carrier application engineering if
other gases or corrosive agents are part of the application
environment.
SERVICE
Cleaning — The controller is a rugged and lightweight unit
that requires very little maintenance. Clean external surfaces
periodically with a dampened cloth.
TROUBLESHOOTING
The following occurrences may indicate abnormal opera-
tion, caused primarily by power input fluctuations, surges, or
spikes.
• The unit remains in warm-up mode for more than
10 minutes.
• The LED glows with no pulse.
•CO
2indication (display numbers or signal output) is
frozen.
• Numbers on the display change continuously for longer
than 1 minute.
Normal operation can usually be restored by removing
power, shutting down the unit for at least 15 seconds, then
reconnecting power. The unit should warm up, as described
above, then return to normal operation. If the situation
continues, remove and replace the sensor.
