1. General information on O2-detection
NITROGEN GENERATORS
Please note that if a nitrogen generator is being used in the area where the O2 sensor
is installed, the excess oxygen created by the nitrogen generator must be led out of
the area. It is not allowed to use the O2 sensor in the area if the oxygen is not led out.
The LogiCO2´s O2 Safety Systems measures the O2 concentration in a confined space environment
and provides alerts/alarms in the event that O2 levels in that space reaches the pre-set alarm levels.
The O2 sensing devices uses optical analysis for detection of O2.
If a sensor detects a low or high O2 level, the O2 sensor alerts via sound and light-diodes as well as
remotely connected warning lamps, horns or horn/strobes which will be activated. If it is connected to
our Mk9 central unit it will also display which sensor has detected an alarm O2 level.
First after a self-diagnostics program has been done by the system the sensor will begin to detect O2
levels when powered on. The system is delivered pre-connected. With auxiliary kits, functionality can
be substantially extended. There is a set which is comprised of one O2 sensor, one central unit, one
horn/strobe as well as appropriate signs. As well as one with the Stand alone version.
O2 concentration levels (%) and effects

2. General LogiCO2 Safety System description
LogiCO2´s O2 Safety Systems measure O2 concentration in a confined space environment and
provides alerts/alarms in the event that O2 levels in that space reaches a preset level. The O2 sensing
devices uses an optical sensor for accurate detecting of O2. When installed properly, the system will
continuously monitor the O2 concentration where a O2 sensor is located.
If a sensor detects a low or high O2 level, the O2 sensor alerts via sound and light and remotely
connected warning lamps, horns or horn/strobes will be activated. The central unit will alert with
sound and display which sensor that has detected a low or high O2 level. A properly installed system
will begin to detect O2 levels when powered on, after a self-diagnostics program has been made by
the system. No additional start-up procedure or adjustment is necessary.
The system is delivered as pre-connected sets with auxiliary kits to extend the function of the sets.
The sets are comprised of one or more O2 sensors, with auxiliary central unit/s, horn/s and relay
boxes.

3. Test and installation
LEGAL NOTICE
All persons responsible for the operation and maintenance of this equipment must
read and understand the safety and operating information contained in this guide.
Installation and service of this equipment should be performed only by professionals.
The function of the equipment will be impaired if it is not properly installed. Disconnection from
power supply source: when installing the O2 Safety System to the power net, please ensure
that the fuse that the system runs on is clearly marked. This makes it easy to disconnect the
power to the system, if needed.
It is very important to be aware that the O2 Safety System does not function if disconnected
from power mains.
3.1 Testing set, BEFORE INSTALLATION
The different sets are delivered pre-connected in the package. Always test the set before installation
to verify proper function! NOTE: Be aware that during the test a very loud sound will be emitted from
the horn.
1. Open the box and carefully take the components out of the package.
2. Find the power supply in the package and attach the correct mains-adaptor for your
country’s outlet, then connect the power supply to the electrical outlet. The set should
now activate.
3. If you test a Mk9 detector set, please check that all LEDs on the central unit and the
sensors illuminate and the built-in buzzers beep, this is part of the self-diagnostics
program. Approximately 3 seconds after connection all external horns and/or strobes
(connected to the sensor) should be activated for approximately 5 seconds.
4. Now your set is tested and you can start the installation.
Note! If additional kits are to be installed. Please check appropriate part of the manual
for correct DIP-switch setting (ID-address).

3.2 Installation of the O2 Sensor
Correct placement of the O2 Sensor
The O2 sensor should be placed in the room where there is a risk for unsafe oxygen concentration –
this would be at the distribution points of the nitrogen, nitrogen generator or nitrogen tank as well as
mixed gas with nitrogen. Please observe, this does not necessarily have to be where the asphyxiant
gas is stored, for example when it is stored outside and the gas is routed into the building via pipes.
It is also VERY IMPORTANT to be aware that the danger always is relative to how much asphyxiant
gas is used and stored in relationship to the volume of the room in question.
NOTE: If the room has only mechanical ventilation, it should have a sensor.
Installation of the O2 Sensor
The O2 sensor should be installed at breathing height, between 150-180 cm/5-6 feet from the floor.
Try to find an installation position where the unit is least likely to be damaged. Mount the O2 sensor
with supplied mounting screws.
150-
180 cm
/5-6 ft

7
3.3 Installation of the Horn/Strobe
1. The horn/strobe/s must be installed on the wall above the O2 sensor, approximately 2-2.4
m/80-96 inches (as per NFPA 72) above the floor, clearly visible from any entrance of the area
being monitored. It is recommended that a second horn/strobe be placed OUTSIDE the area being
monitored, preferably placed over the door/s leading to the monitored area. This will require more
than one horn/strobe. Mount the unit with supplied mounting screws.
2. Mount the included warning signs so they are clearly visible, next to or above the horn/strobes, in a
permanent way.
3.4 Installation of the Central Unit
1. If your set includes a central unit, it must be installed outside the area or room being monitored, for
example on a wall in the manager’s office. The central unit must be installed at a clearly visible and
reachable height.
2. Mount the included information signs clearly visible, next to or above the units, in a permanent way.
2-2.4 m
/ 80-96"

3.5 Installation and connection of the cables
The different units are connected to each other by cables. The blue marked cable is used for
signalisation (horn/strobe, warning beacon and remote control box). The red marked cable is for
communication and power. Please observe, all cables have splitters at the end to facilitate extended
cable lengths. When installing, the cables may need to be disconnected for purposes of cable routing.
When reconnecting, please make sure that you connect to the original splitters and connectors. Make
sure to mount the protective collar seals with the tie-wraps in order to protect the connections from
dirt and water. The collar seals as well as the tie-wraps are also delivered in the box that the sensor
comes in. If possible, route the cables through cable conduits between the units, for a neat and safe
installation.
Protective collar seals and cable ties are included. They must be used as below to protect the RJ45 1-1
connector or RJ45 1-2 splitter from moisture and dust.
3.6 Connection of the power supply
A separate power supply (100-240 VAC) supplies power to the system. Please observe that you have
to connect the appropriate plug adaptor to the power supply depending on which country you are in.
Connect the power supply to the electrical outlet.
Mount the included plug-lock so that the power supply cannot be
disconnected without the use of tools.
It is also possible to order a hardwired power supply option when
and were it is needed.

4. Calibration, AFTER INSTALLATION
Startup calibration
When the system has been installed, it is important to do a calibration since the sensor could have
become uncalibrated during transportation.
The sensor needs to be powered for at least 20 minutes before the calibration can be done, to
make sure it is heated up and adjusted to the environment. Try to make sure that the room is well
ventilated.
Instruction:
A more detailed instruction can be found in chapter 7.5, ”Service Mode Three”, in this manual.
1. Press and hold the button on the sensor for 10 seconds.
2. When the asterisk (*) in the upper right corner of the display is lit, push the button
shortly. Repeat this five times in a row to enter the Calibration mode. For each correct
push of the button, a dot will be lit in the lower left corner. If an incorrect push happens,
the procedure starts over again.
3. The instructions in the display will say Push the button to start calibration. Push the
button short and a 90 second timer starts counting down. If the calibration is successful,
the display will show “Calibration OK” and go back to Service Mode One, for 30 seconds,
and then go to “normal view”.
Automatic calibration - Activated or deactivated
The LogiCO2 O2 sensor has an automatic self calibration function activated as standard, so after the
first start up calibration, no further manual calibrations should be needed in normal conditions.
However, if the O2 Sensor is used in an area that can have an abnormally high O2 concentration, the
AUTO-CAL must be deactivated by setting the DIP-switch number 6 (on the printed circuit board) in
up position. If you wish to use the alarm function for high levels of O2, for example an alarm at 23%,
the automatic calibration does also need to be deactivated.
If you have deactivated the automatic calibration, manual calibrations will need to be done at least
every 6 months if the sensor is installed in an normal environment.
If the sensor is installed in a rough environment, calibrations might need to be done more often. The
manual calibration procedure is the same as the ”startup calibration” procedure.
