CARBON DIOXIDE DETECTOR -MODEL: 360
OPERATION & INSTALLATION MANUAL
Detectors must be installed by competent persons.
Isolate electrical power before starting installation.
Electrical wiring must be carried out properly in accordance
with current electrical regulations.
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Model 360 has been designed to detect Carbon Dioxide in Air and to signal an alarm
event above the level defined on the calibration certificate (normally 0.5% by volume in Air).
The Model 360 utilizes a highly sensitive solid electrolyte sensor which is operated and
monitored by microprocessor. The unit is constructed from high quality electronic
components which ensure trouble free operation during its expected life time.
2.0 APPLICATIONS
The detector has been designed to protect people from the risk of C02 build up. This
can be caused by leaks from cylinders, supply lines, industrial, vehicle emissions and
biological sources.
Beer cellars are generally classed as a confined space and therefore covered by the
Confined Spaces Regulations 1997. This means that an employer or manager is
responsible for the health and safely of their employees and must take into account
the risk of:
the loss of consciousness or asphyxiation of any person at work arising from gas,
fumes,vapour or the lack of oxygen.
This is a legal requirement.
3.0 SITING THE DETECTOR
First site the detector, Carbon Dioxide is a constituent of Air, however in
isolation is heavier than air (by a factor of 1.5). therefore the unit should be
sited not more than 4 metres from the potential leak source and 0.5 metres
from ground level.
Site the unit where it can be easily seen and heard.

4.0 INSTALLATION
The detector should be wall mounted by first fixing the mounting bracket to the wall with the
screws and rawl plugs provided.
The unit is fixed to the bracket by locating the holes in the back of the case onto the lugs
ofthe bracket and sliding downwards to secure.
We recommend that the power cable supplied with the detector is fitted to an un-switched
3amp fused spur.
WIRING:
240V circuit. LNE: Brown
NEUTRAL: Blue
SWITCHING CIRCUIT: Black/Grey
5.0 THE DETECTOR OPERATION
When the unit is first powered up the green LED will flash for up to two hours, while the unit
is stabilising.
Once the green LED has stopped flashing and is constantly lit, the detector is operational.
The detector will alarm as the level of Carbon Dioxide rises above the alarm set point
(calibrated at the factory).
The red LED will light, the internal sounder will operate and the alarm relay will change
state(if fitted).
If a repeater unit is supplied it will start to flash and the sounder will operate while the detec-
tor is in an alarm condition and resets with the detector.
In gas-free conditions the detector can be set to auto reset or push button. Once reset the
red LED will extinguish, the sounder will stop operating the relay and repeater(if fitted) will
change back to their original state.
Note: The detector will not reset when in alarm condition.
