Venticator - VC1008F

Carbon dioxide sensor / transmitter

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Venticator, VC1008F is a simple, low cost,
state-of-the-art, maintenance-free infrared
carbon dioxide transmitter for installation in the
climate zone or in the ventilation duct.
The VC1008F measures the carbon dioxide
concentration in the ambient air up to 2,000
ppm and transforms the data into 0-10 V and
4-20mA output signals.
VC1008F VC1008F-KS
VC1008F helps you save money by decreasing IP20 wall housing IP65 ductl housing
your energy consumption while maintaining a without display without LC display
healthier indoor climate!

FEATURES APPLICATIONS
Using patented state-of-the-art gold-plated VC1008F is an extremely cost-effective
infrared (NDIR) wave-guide technology and sensor/transmitter for building climate control
offers reliable measurements and other processes where measurement of
 measurement range: 0 - 2 000 ppm CO2 carbon dioxide concentration is required.
 two analogue outputs: By controlling the ventilation based on actual
OUT1: 0 - 10 V (= 0 - 2 000 ppm CO2) demand, it helps to reduce energy consumption
while maintaining a healthy indoor climate!
OUT2: 4 – 20mA (= 0 - 2 000 ppm CO2)
The two different housing options and output
OUT3: Voltage-free contact pre-set
configurations (current and voltage signal)
@1,000ppm
makes the VC1008F most suitable for general
 maintenance-free in normal applications applications.
 non-frill design; cost-optimized for connection
to DDCs
 Two different housing options:
1) IP20 wall housing
2) IP65 duct housing

CONNECTIONS
Screw terminals
1 G+ 24 V AC/DC (+)
2 G0 System ground (-)
3 M Signal ground, internally connected G0
4 Vo Linear output (+) 0-10 V = 0 – 2 000 ppm CO2
5 Linear output (+) 4-20mA = 0 – 2 000 ppm
Io
CO2
6 NO Normally opened contact of relay output
7 COM Common contact of relay output
8 NC Normally closed contact of relay output

Power supply has to be connected to G+ and G0. G0 is considered as


system ground. If the analogue output is connected to a controller the
same ground reference has to be used for the VC1008F unit and
for the control system
