Engineering guide specification for carbon dioxide transmitter

ENGINEERING GUIDE SPECIFICATION FOR CARBON DIOXIDE TRANSMITTER
Carbon Dioxide transmitters shall be used for demand controlled ventilation strategy discussed in the control sequence portion of this specification no. ( ).
Product Characteristics: The CO2 transmitter shall be an NDIR (non dispersive infrared), folded and extended path type optical sensor. The optical sensor shall be made of a polymer with an interior coating of gold for the best light refraction. No substitutes for gold will be accepted. Optical bench shall be temperature compensated. The optical path length of the sensor shall be at least 4.7” in order to ensure long-term stability and resolution. To ensure optimum quality and consistency of the product, it shall be completely assembled using Certified ISO-9001 manufacturing processes.
Calibration: Sensor shall not require manual calibration over a minimum product rated life of 15 years. Sensor shall utilize an integrated Automated Baseline Compensation (ABC) algorithm that calibrates the sensor based on baseline concentrations measured during unoccupied periods in the space.
Quality: To ensure optimum quality and consistency of the product the transmitter shall be fully assembled (electronics, packaging and optical sensor) using ISO-9001 certified processes in an ISO-9001 certified manufacturing facility to ensure optimum and consistent product quality. Proof of ISO-9001 certification of the manufacturing facility shall be available upon request from the manufacturer.
Product Accuracy: The product shall have an accuracy of ±1% of measured range + 3% of measured value (± 50 ppm at 1000 ppm).
Analog Output: The product should be capable of providing dual, simultaneous outputs of both current and voltage. Two output configurations are available for the entire TR92XX line: A) 0-5 VAC and 4-20 mA or B) 0-10V and 4-20 mA.
LonWorks® Output: The product shall have a LonWorks output that is LonMark® Certified to Lonworks® Version 3.4 to ensure compatibility with all LonWorks® equipment. LonMark® Catalog Listing: http://www.lonmark.org/certifications/device_certification/product_catalog/product_detail.asp?ProductID=950
