2 Installing the Sensor

This document illustrates how to install the Ammonia Sensor to a Platinum, Platinum Pro, TRIO, or AC-2000 3G Controller. Refer to the specific controller documentation for information on using the sensor.

2.1 ComponentsA power supply comes with the sensor.

  1. Connector and coupling
  2. Mounting lug
  3. Sensor element
  4. Mounting ring
  5. LED green/yellow
  6. Housing
  7. Dust cap
2.2 Installation and Mounting
  1. Place the sensor in the housing, attach the mounting ring and dust cap.
  2. Hang the sensor in the center of the area to be monitored.o Do not place the center near sources of fresh air (for example a door or curtain).o Make sure that animals or birds can not reach the sensor.o Do not use the electrical cable to suspend the sensor!
  3. Screw the connector to the coupling.
  4. From the coupling:o Wire the sensor to the Platinum, Platinum Pro, AC-3000 3G, and TRIO as shown below. The sensor can be up to 50 meters from the controller.o Wire the sensor to the power source as shown below.
2.3 LED

The Ammonia Sensor has a single LED. After applying power, wait 30 minutes for the unit to warm up.

  • Green LED: Unit is functioning.
  • Yellow blinking LED: Unit is not operating.
2.4 Wiring

NOTE Munters supplies the resistor.

1. Connect:

  • Sensor green wire to power supply black wire. Connect the combined wire to COM.
  • Sensor white wire (12VDC power source) to power supply red wire (12V).
  • Sensor brown wire:
Platinum:
  • Connect the wire to a 10 kohm resistor.
  • Connect the resistor to port T7, T8, or T9
  • Place a jumper on the T7, T8, or T9 pins (sets the HUM mode).

Platinum Pro
  • Connect the wire to a 10 kohm resistor.
  • Connect the resistor to port IN1, IN2, IN3, or IN4.
  • On the Analog Input Card, set the corresponding dipswitch to the 5V position (dipswitch 2).

AC-2000 3G: No further steps are required.TRIO
  • S port. In the corresponding dipswitch, raise dipswitch 3 (analog input).
  • COM port.
  • Unit includes a 10 kohm resistor (comes installed)

2.5 Maintenance and Care

The Ammonia Sensor requires little or no maintenance. The following are general maintenance rules:

  • Avoid damaging the Ammonia Sensor box
  • Avoid contact with water or other fluids (when you clean the poultry house, remove the box)
  • Ensure sensor grill on front box panel is clean and clear of obstructions

CAUTION Water and cleaning agents may damage the sensor; therefore minimize exposure while washing, or using water for any purpose. Disconnect and remove the sensor before cleaning the barn. Failure to do so can result in the warranty’s cancellation.
