WIRING
Use maximum 18 AWG wire for wiring terminals. Refer to Figure 1 or Figure 2 for
wiring information. The terminal block is removable for ease of installation.
4 to 20 mA Output
Before wiring for 4 to 20 mA output, check that the jumper P1 is connected so that the
jumper is on the two pins furthest from the terminal block as shown in gure 1. 4 to
20 mA output may be powered by 18 to 28 VDC. The transmitter is reverse polarity
protected. The load must not exceed the maximum loop resistance, Rmax, listed on
the next page. The load and power supply should be connected according to Figure 1.
Max Loop Resistance
For 4 to 20 mA Outputs
The maximum allowable loop resistance depends on the power supply voltage.
Maximum loop voltage drop must not reduce the transmitter voltage below the 18 VDC
minimum. Maximum loop resistance can be calculated with the following equation. Vps
is the power supply voltage.
Rmax = Vps – 18
20 mA
Some receivers, particularly loop powered indicators, may maintain a xed loop
voltage to power the device. This voltage drop must also be subtracted from the power
supply voltage when calculating the voltage margin for the transmitter. The following
equation takes this into account. Vrec is the receiver xed voltage.
Rmax = Vps – 18 – Vrec
20 mA
2 to 10 VDC Output
Before wiring for 2 to 10 VDC output, check that the jumper P1 is connected so that
the jumper is on the two pins closest to the terminal block as shown in gure 2. 2 to
10 VDC output may be powered by 18 to 28 VAC or VDC. The transmitter is reverse
polarity protected. The load must be greater than 50 KΩ. The load and power supply
should be connected according to Figure 2.

INSTALLATION
• The transmitter should be mounted at normal breathing height, approximately 5 to 6
ft above the oor.
• The unit may be mounted in the horizontal or vertical position. It should be
mounted in an area that is shielded from direct contact with the elements or direct
sunlight.
• Mount in an area that will prevent the sensor from having any direct contact with
water.
• The unit should be placed in an area that will give an average of the air quality. Do
not place the unit so it will receive direct engine exhaust. Prolonged exposure
to direct engine exhaust may damage the sensor.
MOUNTING
1. Twist the lid a quarter turn and pull the lid from the base housing.
2. Remove the desired conduit tting knock out and install conduit tting (not
provided).
3. Position the transmitter where it is to be mounted and mark the mounting hole
located in the center of the housing base.
4. Drill or punch out marked locations.
5. Place the transmitter on the wall and align the mounting hole. Install the
transmitter using the included screw and washer through the mounting hole.
6. Set the jumper selection for current or voltage output.
7. Proceed with the wiring according to diagrams in gures 1 and 2.
8. Replace the cover.
The electrochemical sensors should be stored in an environment
with a minimum humidity level of 20% RH. If the sensor dries out,
replacements will not be covered under warranty, but they can be revived by allowing
them to stabilize in an environment above 40% RH for 10 days. Once revived, they
need to be recalibrated before use.
These are general guidelines. Local laws or ordinances will take
precedence.

CALIBRATION
Calibration of the Model CMT200 requires an A-507A calibration adapter, model GCK-
200CO-2000CO2 calibration gas, a multimeter, and a small at head screw driver.
1. Turn off power to the transmitter.
2. Remove the lid from the housing by twisting it a quarter turn and pulling off.
3. Replace the receiver shown in gure 1 or 2 with a multimeter and restore the
power to the transmitter.
4. Attach the tubing from the zero calibration gas to the A-507A calibration adapter.
5. Securely attach the A-507A to the CMT200 as shown in gure 3.
6. Allow the calibration gas to ow at a rate of 0.5 to 1.0 slpm for at least 3 minutes.
7. Adjust the zero potentiometer (blue) until the output reading on the multimeter
reads 4 mA or 2VDC (depending on output selection).
8. Repeat steps 4 through 6 using the span calibration gas.
9. Adjust the span potentiometer (grey) until the output reading on the multimeter
reads 20 mA or 10 VDC (depending on output selection).
10. Turn off the power to the transmitter.
11. Replace the multimeter with the receiver as shown in gures 1 and 2 and
restore the power to the transmitter.
12. Remove the A-507A calibration adapter.
13. Replace the lid on to the transmitter.
