Warm-up time

When power is first applied to the CCA, the voltage at the output pin is geld at a predetermined level. The default setting of this Startup value is the "Zero gas" value. This condition is maintained for a default "warm-up" time of 15 seconds, after this time, the output voltage represents the calculated gas value. Sensors can take up to one (1) minute to indicate the correct gas reading.

 

Note:

The sensor can output any reading from -100 %FSD to +200 %FSD in the first minute. The output value that is read using the communications pins is always held at zero during the "warm-up" time.

 

FSD: Full Scale Deflection (full scale of the sensor).
