SPACE CO
2
SENSOR FAILURE (OPTIONAL) ( )
The Space CO
2
Sensor Failure fault will occur when the UVC detects
an open or a short condition from the Space CO
2
sensor.
Effect:
•
CO
2
Demand Controlled Ventilation function is disabled
•
Fault is indicated
CHANGE FILTER INDICATION ( )
The Change Filter Indication will occur when the UVC calculates that
the total fan run time has exceeded the allowed number of hours since
the last filter change.
Effect:
•
Fault is indicated
Troubleshooting Temperature Sensors
The UVC is configured to use passive positive temperature coefficient
(PTC) sensor whose resistance increases with increasing temperature.
The element has a reference resistance of 1035 ohms at 77
°
F (25
°
C).
Each element is calibrated according to the tables shown.
The following procedure can be used to troubleshoot a suspect sensor.
1. Disconnect both sensor leads from the UVC.
2. Take a temperature reading at the sensor location.
3. Use the temperature reading from Step 2 to determine the expected
sensor resistance from the Temperature versus Resistance Table 22.
4. Using an ohmmeter, measure the actual resistance across the two
sensor leads.
5. Compare the expected resistance to the actual resistance.
6. If the actual resistance value deviates substantially (more than
10%) from the expected resistance, replace the sensor.

Troubleshooting Humidity Sensors
The UVC is configured to use 0-100% RH, 0-5 VDC, capacitive
humidity sensors. Each sensor is calibrated according to the table
shown.
/!\ Caution
The humidity sensor is not protected against reversed polarity. Check
carefully when connecting the device or damage will result.
CAUTION
!
The following procedure can be used to troubleshoot a suspect humidity
sensor.
1. Disconnect the sensor(s)’ output voltage lead from the UVC analog
input.
2. Take a humidity reading at the sensor location.
3. Use the humidity reading from Step 2 to determine the expected
sensor voltage from the Humidity versus Voltage Table 23.
4. Using a multi-meter, measure the actual voltage across the yellow
and white sensor leads.
5. Compare the expected voltage to the actual voltage.
6. If the actual voltage value deviates substantially (more than 10%)
from the expected voltage, replace the sensor.

Troubleshooting Carbon Dioxide (CO
2
)
Sensors
The UVC is configured to use 0-2000 PPM, 0-10 VDC, single beam
absorption infrared gas sensor. Each sensor is calibrated according to
the table shown.
The following procedure can be used to troubleshoot a suspect sensor.
1. Disconnect the sensor(s)’ output voltage lead from the UVC analog
input.
2. Take a CO
2
reading at the sensor location.
3. Use the CO
2
reading from Step 2 to determine the expected sensor
voltage from the CO
2
versus Voltage Table 24.
4. Using a multi-meter, measure the actual voltage across the lead
removed from xAI-3 and ground.
5. Compare the expected voltage to the actual voltage.
6. If the actual voltage value deviates substantially (more than 10%)
from the expected voltage, replace the sensor.
In the unlikely event that the CO
2
sensor requires calibration, consult
the factory for information on obtaining calibration equipment and
instructions.
