Installation and Precautions
■The monitor is used for indoor air quality monitoring and is suitable for ceiling installation and
wall installation. This product should not be used outdoors.
■The installation location should avoid kitchens, heating, air conditioning indoor units, direct
sunlight, etc., which are affected by heat sources and other polluting gases. Keep away from
high power or electrostatic precipitator equipment to avoid affecting product accuracy. The
installation location should be convenient for regular maintenance.
■This series of products is precision measuring equipment, and the measurement parameters
include micro-particles and total volatile gases, and it should be ensured that there is no
construction or decoration in the environment. When used in new construction, it should be
installed after the renovation project is completed and cleaned and cleaned.
■If the room where the MSD has been installed needs to be renovated, the MSD should be
removed before the conditions permit, and then installed after the renovation is completed. For

MSD IAQ Detector -User Manual
V.1912
situations where disassembly is difficult, be sure to completely wrap the MSD to prevent paint,
paint, and dust from entering the MSD.
■This product should avoid the deviation of CO2 measurement caused by the product's drop and
impact caused by the beam shift in the sensor chamber; it should avoid the long-term exposure
of the product to the high concentration of total organic volatile gas, which may cause the
sensor poisoning to be unrecoverable. For example, the concentration is greater than several
times the TVOC range in the MSD.
■When the temperature of the MSD
environment changes greatly, for example,
if the product has just been received during
the cold weather, it should be placed
indoors for 8 hours before being powered
on. Or move from the air-conditioned room
to the non-air-conditioned area, etc., and
also need to be placed for at least 2 hours
before powering up.Avoid excessive temperature difference and cause condensation or
equipment damage.
■Never use other pigments to apply the MSD casing to avoid clogging the inlet and outlet, and
the pigment entering the MSD chamber.
■Do not use cigarettes to test PM2.5 measurements. Because the particles of cigarettes are
mostly between 0.1 and 0.3 microns, and the concentration cannot be controlled. As a result,
the PM2.5 measurement deviation is too large.
■When multiple MSDs use RS485 wired networking, when sharing a power supply, make sure
that the power supply wiring uses the same name of the power polarity, and the wrong
connection will cause damage to the equipment.
■Re-use after first use or long time, it should be continuously energized for more than 48 hours to
ensure stable output of all measured values.
■The built-in CO2 sensor of MSD have a self-calibration function. The readings may be
deviations after power on or after a period of power off.And will be getting normal work after 2-7
days with continuously power on.And will be automatically calibrated during long term use.
Equipment maintenance and fault check
■To ensure accurate MSD data, regular maintenance is required in normal use environments.
Depending on the environment in which it is used, maintenance is usually required once every 3 to 6
months. The special environment should shorten the maintenance period, such as public places with
large dust, dry seasons and pollen seasons, and poor environmental cleanliness.
■General maintenance includes: cleaning the filter and using a vacuum cleaner to remove dust
inside the filter. If there is a large deviation in the measured value, or if dust and debris cannot be
cleaned after entering, you need to return to the factory for re-cleaning and calibration.
■In the normal use environment, when the fault phenomenon in the following list occurs, please
check it yourself. Initially determine the cause of the failure. If the fault cannot be eliminated, contact
the dealer or the manufacturer.

Fault phenomenon
Reference reason
PM2.5 data abnormal
deviation is too large, the
value is too high or too low
Check for foreign objects inside the MSD housing. The air inlet and outlet are
free of foreign matter or dust. After a long-term use, it may be necessary to
return to the factory for recalibration.
The CO2 data is abnormal,
The value is too high or too
low
The CO2 sensor has a self-checking function. Usually the self-checking
function returns CO2 to normal values. Self-checking environment: The CO2
concentration is about 400ppm for at least 4 hours every 24 hours. The
environment should last for one week. In special cases, if the vibration is not
vibrated or dropped, the self-checking will not take effect, and the CO2 sensor
needs to be recalibrated or replaced.
TVOC data abnormal
deviation is too large,
Too high or too low
Although the TVOC sensor has a temperature and humidity compensation
function, due to the characteristics of the sensor itself, the correct value cannot
be output when the ambient temperature and humidity suddenly change
greatly. For example, when the device is moved to a location, the environment
may change greatly.
Tempe and humidity
deviation is too large,
the value is too high
Check whether the environmental factors surrounding the MSD have any
influence, such as direct sunlight, close to the heating, air conditioning air
outlets, etc. If everything is normal, you need to recalibrate the temperature
and humidity values.
Temperature and
humidity deviation is too
large; value is too low or
value does not change for a
long time
The temperature and humidity values are too low and the temperature and
humidity values need to be recalibrated. The value does not change for a long
time, and it can be powered up after power off to see if it returns to normal. If
you cannot recover, you need to return to the factory to replace the
temperature and humidity sensor.
Check if the power supply is normal; use the mobile phone to check whether
the WiFi signal strength is normal. Check if the SSID and password of the
wireless AP are changed. Check the configuration of the router and firewall,
check whether the port used by the device is blocked by other personnel;
check whether there is any new electromagnetic interference or shielding
affecting the facility nearby. If everything is normal, you can try to restore power
after power off.
Communication interruption
RS485 (Modbus RTU)
Check if the power supply is normal, if the RS485 terminal is loose. Whether
the RS485 communication line is accidentally cut by other constructions.
Whether an inductive load with electromagnetic interference is added or
started near the equipment or RS485 communication line, such as a water
pump.
Communication interruption
RJ45(Ethernet TCP)
Check if the power supply is normal; whether the RJ45 plug connection is
reliable. Check the configuration of the router and firewall, check if the port
used by the device is blocked by other people.
If everything is normal, you can try to restore power after power off.
