General Introduction
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) is measure for the quality of air in interiors, the comfortable indoor environmental quality
can make people feel fresh, work efficiency and good for the health. The CO2 concentration is the important
factor of good indoor air quality. People breath in oxygen and breath out CO2, nowadays people often close the
windows to avoid noise and enjoy the comfort living and working environment provided by air-conditioning
systems, which results in the fact that the indoor concentration of CO2 is far higher than outdoor average. With
the high CO2 concentration and non- proper ventilation, people will feel headaches, dull, drowsiness, loss of
concentration and correspond to the high levels of dust, chemicals and bacteria in the air.

SEU (Sensor Unit) Function Instruction
The SEU (Sensor Unit) should be placed in a room where the CO2 is likely to accumulate or O2 reduce, such as
a room where CO2 is stored, like an area with CO2 beverages. The large LCD displays the ambient CO2 & O2
concentration.
The SEU has the “DIAG”, “AL1”, “AL2”“CALI”, “ReFactSet” function. The “DIAG” function executes
communication tests between the SEU and RDU. The user can do the calibration under the “CALI” mode when
necessary. If data-setting is done incorrectly, the user can use the “ReFactSet” back to the original factory
setting.
There have “AL1” “AL2” two alarm levels, the alarm level is adjustable, the first alarm level of CO2 is with
parameter 5000ppm, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, the default first alarm level is 1.5% ; the first alarm level of O2 is with
parameter 18%,18.5%,19%,19.5%,20%, the default first alarm level is 19%.The second alarm level of CO2 is
with parameter 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, the default second alarm level is 3%; the second alarm level of
O2 is with parameter 16%,16.5%,17%,17.5%,18%, the default second alarm level is 17%.

When the ZGa21 CO2 &O2 Monitor detects CO2 concentration exceeds the first alarm level or O2 concentration
drops the first alarm level, the red 1 LED will blink and the buzzer will sound intermittently, the relay will be
triggered. When CO2 concentration drops the first alarm level, or O2 concentration rise to the first alarm level, the
red 1 LED will stop blinking and buzzer will stop beeping.
If the concentration of CO2 continues to rise above the second alarm level, or the concentration of O2 drops the
second alarm level, the red 1 and red 2 LED’s will flash together, the tempo of the buzzer will increase. When
CO2 concentration drops below the second alarm level, even to the first alarm level, the red 1 and red 2 LED’s
will remain blinking, and the buzzer will remain beeping (This function is latch design. Based on DIN6653-2).
Unless the ZGa21 is restarted, by means of reset button of ZGa21 or unplug the AC adapter and reconnected it.
The green LED will light continuously when the power is normally supplied.
Warning: If the ambient CO2 concentration reaches the second alarm level on SEU & RDU, there will be a
safety notice “ESC” displays on the LCD, Careful action, such as ventilating the space, must be taken before
entering the room where the SEU is placed.
If the communication cable between the SEU & RDU doesn’t connect well, like the communication cable looses
in the Input port, the fault LED of SEU will blink, reconnect the cable, if the cable is inserted into the output port,
on RDU, after one minute, the “Er7” will flash on LCD. Unplug the cable and plug it into the Input port.
The unit will work normally after corrective action.
RDU (Remote Display Unit) Function Instruction
The RDU (Remote Display Unit) should be placed outside the room when in use.
The RDU is connected to the SEU with a wire that has a maximum length of 8 meters (26 feet).The RDU should
be placed where it can be conveniently observed before entering the room where the SEU is located. The RDU is
a repeater, and displays the measurements made by the SEU on an easy-to-read digital LCD along with
important safety information.
The RDU has “DIAG” function. The “DIAG” can test the communication between the SEU and RDU. Resetting
the ZGa21 CO2 and O2 Monitor is only available from SEU.
