Product Usage Instructions

Air Quality Monitoring:

  1. Use the device to monitor AQI levels for CO2, VOC, PM, CO, and O3.
  2. Note the thresholds where each air quality category transitions from Poor to Good quality.

Temperature and Humidity Monitoring:

  1. Check the temperature range displayed on the device for optimal comfort.
  2. Monitor the humidity levels within the specified thresholds for good quality.

Inversion Settings:

  1. Select the desired inversion option (0 = Not Inverted, 1 = Inverted) based on your preference.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

  • Q: How do I know when air quality is considered poor or good?
    A: The device will display the AQI levels for different pollutants and indicate whether it falls under Poor quality or Good quality based on the specified thresholds.
  • Q: What should I do if the temperature or humidity levels are outside the recommended range?
    A: Take necessary actions to adjust the temperature or humidity levels to fall within the specified thresholds for good quality.

An N.O. (normally open) relay will be in the open state until it is activated, i.e., the turn-on threshold is met, at which time it will close. An N.C. (normally closed) relay will be in the closed state until it is activated, at which

time it will open.

            Based on the full-scale range of the selected sensor, set the value above which the relay will activate. For example, if CO2 is selected, its full available range is

0-10,000 PPM, so a setpoint of 800 PPM would

            correspond to an 8.00% threshold setting. For temperature, the full range is -40 to 122°F, so a setpoint of 70°F would correspond to a threshold value of 68%. Use this equation to determine the threshold setting for a temp in °F: (T+40)/162*100.

This setting is ignored for PIR and G/F source

            selections. The display will show the calculated value as you adjust this setting. The below shows the values that are set by default when each source is selected as well as the calculated value for each.

Air Quality Thresholds

If Air Quality is selected, the device will monitor each CO2, 1VOC, PM, RH, and Temp sensor present and will display accordingly. The device will calculate an average air quality based on up to 5 sensors and display good, fair, or poor accordingly. The device will come populated with the Senva recommended Good-Fair-Poor thresholds, but they can be changed with the following points, or in the device menu.

TotalSense-AI31-BACnet-Protocol-fig- (6) TotalSense-AI31-BACnet-Protocol-fig- (7)

The average air quality is calculated as follows for the sensors that have been enabled (see table on page 19 to enable and disable each senor):

  1. Each reading is rated according to the above thresholds and given an air quality rating. For each sensor, a good rating is given 90%, fair is given 60% and poor is given 0% air quality.
  2. The average of all sensors’ air quality is calculated.
  3. The average air quality is assigned based on the following thresholds. These thresholds can be adjusted in AV28 Good-fair and AV29 fair-poor.
    • Good ≥ 75
    • 55 < Fair< 75
    • Poor ≤ 55

VOC Molecular Weights

  • Senva’s TVOC sensor uses an Ethanol reading to determine a raw TVOC value. Additionally, conversion from g/m3 uses the molecular weight of Ethanol. To scale based on a different gas baseline, choose the appropriate gas from the list below and enter the scale factor in AV8.
  • Please note that the sensor is measuring TOTAL VOCs, so adjusting the scale factor will not necessarily result in a gas-specific reading unless, in special cases, that is the only expected VOC present in the area. It is recommended to use the 1.0 scale factor in most cases. The RESET standard suggests calculating TVOC based on the molecular weight of isobutylene (scale factor: 1.218).
