Installer is responsible for compliance of all applicable codes. • Read, understand, and follow instructions thoroughly. • The unit and associated systems require routine test and maintenance as prescribed in the TG Series User’s Manual section ‘Periodic Test and Maintenance’ • Do not install in hazardous or classified locations. • De-energize power supply prior to installation. • Gas sensors should not be used as a substitute for proper installation, use, or maintenance of gas emitting equipment. • This device is designed to detect conditions that could result in acute effects of gas exposure. It will not fully safeguard individuals with specific medical conditions. If in doubt, consult a medical practitioner. • Conduit is prone to condensation if it passes from one temperature zone to another, such as from indoors to outdoors or from one part of a building to another. This condensation may actually drip into the sensor if mounted below, causing damage and/or poor readings. In order to prevent condensation and water egress, seal both the top and bottom of the conduit with a suitable expanding foam product (such as Polywater TM Zipseal TM ZIP- 50KIT1) to prevent warm air from entering cold conduit. Alternatively, fiberglass insulation may be inserted in the conduit between the cold and warm sections using a rigid wire or other method if both ends cannot be sealed. Sealing is the preferred method. • Conduit air flow entering sensor may prevent sensor from reading ambient air properly, resulting in under measurement of gases. Plug sensor conduit in all installations with a foam plug or seal as noted above in order to prevent airflow from the conduit. WARNING !

There are two versions to select from; the Analog version and the Communications version(BACnet MS/TP and Modbus RTU). Each version has Fan and Alarm relays for controls/ indication. The Analog version has two configurable 0-5V/10V or 4-20mA analog outputs that represent gas concentrations. The communications version has a physical RS-485 connection for communications over either BACnet MS/TP or Modbus RTU. These sensors can be mounted in an indoor application. In addition, each sensor has the following features: Visual/Audible Indicators - Standard LCD, LED indicators (green, yellow, red), audible alarm. Supports BACnet and Modbus(BACnet/Modbus Version) - TG units with output type of BACnet/Modbus supports BACnet MS/ TP, Modbus RTU and Modbus ASCII. Auto-Configuring Devices (BACnet/Modbus Version) - TG Series automatically detects network baud rate, serial format, protocol and self-addresses. Dual Gas Monitoring - Sensor can accommodate CO, NO2, CO2, Methane, Propane, Hydrogen, Oxygen, H2S, Ammonia, Refrigerants or any dual combination in one enclosure. Sensor can be expanded in field by adding additional elements. Lockable Door - TG Series has a hex keyed screw that can be used to secure the sensor’s door in the closed state. This should be used to keep the sensor door locked to prevent/limit the ability to tamper or misuse the sensor. Streamlined Installation - TGM and TGW units are designed to allow wire through the center, making installation simple and reducing the need to run wires around a circuit board. INSTALLATION 1. Identify the package type (wall/metal or duct) of the TG Series sensor. Follow the ‘Wall Mount’ or ‘Duct Mount’ installation instructions accordingly: Wall Mount (TGM or TGW) Locate sensor near traffic areas, away from sources of ventilation or drafts. One sensor per 5000-7500 square feet is normally required (applies to CO, NO2, CO2, Methane, Hydrogen, Oxygen, H2S, and Ammonia NH3). Propane and refrigerant sensors should be limited to 5000 square feet or less. Recommended CO, NO2, CO2, Oxygen, and H2S Sensor Mounting Height is 3-6 feet above finished floor. Methane, Hydrogen, and Ammonia NH3 sensors should be mounted within 1 foot of the ceiling. Propane sensors should be mounted 1-3 feet above the floor. Refrigerant sensors should be mounted 6 inches above floor. Check with local and state building codes to ensure sensor mounting height is in compliance. Mount the sensor directly and securely to the wall with the fasteners best suited to your construction. Use the factory provided #8 x 3/4” Pan self tapping screws or equivalent. • There are two mounting tabs for securing/mounting the sensor. Mount/secure sensor to desired position on the wall with screws while being careful not to over-tighten. • The sensor has a hole in the back for mounting into a wall or a junction box. If a top mounted conduit connection is desired, drill out either of the top knockouts and install appropriate conduit fitting/connector. ATTENTION: For conduit installations, remove circuit board from enclosure prior to drilling holes to ensure product is not damaged. Duct Mount (TGD) Drill a 3/4” hole in duct. Install sensor using gasket and screws provided. The pickup tube will ensure adequate air flow regardless of air flow direction. Energy Monitor E474343 Step 1: Install mud plate in a 2x4” conduit junction box, or skip this step if mouting TG directly to wall Step 2: Run wire(s) through TG center; mount TG Step 3: Wire to removable terminal block, plug, and play STREAMLINED WALL INSTALLATIONINSTALLATION (Continued)WIRING CALLOUTS Mount unit to duct with supplied screws. 2. Review the wiring call-outs and wire sensor to needed Inputs and outputs for your application. See Page 4 for example wiring schematics. 3. For Bacnet/Modbus version, communication wires may be daisy chained and termination resistor may be utilized. Use of appropriate shielded twisted pair wire (14-26 AWG) is recommended, per protocol specifications. Total wiring runs should not exceed 4000 feet, with a maximum of 128 devices (BACnet) or 32 devices (Modbus) in a single daisy chain. Depending on the network configuration, it may be necessary to use the built in EOL (end-of-line) termination resistors on the TG Sensor. The below shows an enabled termination resistor. 4. For applications utilizing the fan relay, the diagram on the following page shows connections between one or multiple TG sensors wired to an exhaust fan coil using the fan set-point relay(s). This function can be performed by a single TG sensor or a sequence of multiple TG sensors wired in parallel. Ensure that the fan relay set-points are uniform. The fan relays will activate if one or more of the sensors reach the set-point. 5. Connect power wires. Use of a Class 2 LPS power supply or greater is required. Dedicated isolation transformers or power supplies are recommended for each sensor that is installed as shown in the schematic. Apply 15-30VDC or 24VAC to the V+ and V- terminals with appropriate sized wires (14-24AWG). 6. Apply power. Sensor may require up to 2 minutes of warm- up time prior to displaying valid gas measurements. 7. For Bacnet/Modbus version, connect the TG Sensor(s) to an active network. The Senva TG Series can be used on both BACnet and Modbus networks. The default settings on the sensor include auto-detection of protocol type, device address (BACnet only), serial format and baud rate. Each BACnet/ Modbus TG sensor ships with a default Modbus address. This process is further detailed in the respective TG BACnet Protocol Guide or TG Modbus Protocol Guide. To manually adjust these parameters, utilize the TG Series User’s Guide .
