To ensure that the Sensor Module is properly sealed directly to the Flow Frame, no other ductwork or metal can be installed between the Sensor Moduleand the Flow Frame unless factory installed.

Do Not attempt to remount the NJK Sensor Module ontothe NJK Flow Frame by drilling holes in field added sheet metal and re-screwing the Sensor Module to ductwork even after aligning holes with the SensorFlow Frame. The added sheet

metal will create a gap in the mounting surface of the sensor module which cannot be properly sealed on site. This will

cause the sensor readings to read much less than they actuallyare.

NJK Airflow MonitoringStationInstallation and Operators Manual

The NJK Sensor Module will come Factory mounted on the NJK Flow Frame. Most often this will be mounted on the inside of the Flow Frame. In this type of installation there should be provisions provided to gain access to the Sensor Module through a duct opening such as an access panel or accessdoor.

In instances where later access to the Sensor Module may be a concern such as on inlet and outlet openings to an air handler where dampers exist the Sensor Module may be mounted on the exterior of the Flow Frame. While this will allow for ready access to the Sensor Module for cleaning, careful installation practices must be utilized to ensure that the Sensor Module remains properly sealed directly to the Flow Frame.

Sampling Ports Replace Gaskets

The NJK Flow Measuring Module can be cleaned by removing the four mounting screws that attach the module to the Sensor Flow Frame and flushing the sampling port with either a small amount of air or electrical contact cleaner. Air pressures in excess of 110 psig may damage the Sensing Probe. It is recommended that the rubber sealing gaskets be replaced whenever the Flow Sensing Module is removed / replaced. Recommended cleaning interval is two years for a standard application.

Flow Measuring Module

The NJK Flow Measuring Module must be mounted squarely on the Flow Frame to ensure optimal sampling port gasket sealing and proper sampling of the total air flow through the ductwork and into the Flow Measuring Module. Tighten all 4 screws equally to maintain an even contact between the Flow Measuring Module and the Flow Frame. Hand tighten the screws only.

The NJK-02 Air Flow Sensor Flow Frame and Flow Measuring Module will need to be kept clear of debris that can inhibit the operation of the air flow sensor. In an unfiltered outdoor air application the Sensor Flow Frame will need to be free of leaves and or airborne items that can plug the sensor frame. Cottonwood and other such particulates will have very little effect on the operation of the flowframe.

NJK Precision Cable LengthAn NJK Signal Processing Unit should never use more than one NJK Multi Sensor Hub per Signal Processing Unit.

Each Multi Sensor Hub can accept up to 3 Flow Measuring Modules per channel and 8 Flow Measuring Modules total.

Sensor Module signal certainty is dependent upon cable lengths, all connections, and sensor system communication traffic (sensor wiring configuration and sensor programming parameter settings).

Single cable lengths of up to 300 feet can be utilized on a single sensor, and SignalProcessing Unit-S.

Cable length from Multi Sensor Hub to Signal Processing Unit-M is standard 6’ and must not exceed 25 feet in length.

Cable length from Flow Sensing Module to Multi Sensor Hub must not exceed 100 feet in length.

Cumulative cable lengths of up to 300 feet can be safely used when wiring the NJK Signal Processing Unit-M and Multi Hub Unit.

NJK Signal Processing Unit flow signal to Building Automation System cable length will be the responsibility of the BAS Control Contractor.

Display Area: The area of the ductwork where the Sensor Flow Frame is mounted, not the area of the Sensor Flow Frame. (Sensor Flow Frame is manufactured at a minimum to be ½ inch less in size than the interior of theductwork.

-To set up the Display Area of the NJK Precision Sensor: multiply the width of the ductwork housing the NJK Sensor by the height of the ductwork toobtain the duct area in square inches. Divide that number by 144 to obtain the sensor area in square feet. This will be the number that should beentered as Display Area on the Signal Processing Unit.

Flow Range: Input point is to be defined as a 1 to 10 VDC only and will directly reflect minimum and maximum airflow in Cubic Feet per Minute(CFM). Input point must be scaled as labeled on the NJK Air Flow Station label with 1 VDC representing the low flow (in Cubic Feet per Minute) and with 10 VDC representing the high flow (in Cubic Feet per Minute). This will be adjustable between 750, 1500, or 3000.

-The Flow Range of the output signal to the Building Automation System must match the point as defined in the BAS System. To determine theoutput signal Flow Range follow the steps to view the output range setting on the Signal Processing Unit. To determine the point as defined in theBuilding Automation system refer to the Controls Contractor. These two numbers must be setup the same or the SPU and the BAS will havedifferent airflow readings.

Output Gain: The flow multiplication factor as determined by the Test and Balance contractor to allow for proper air flow readings based on system dynamics and ductwork anomalies.

-This number will come with a factory setting of 1.0. This is a direct multiplication factor and is to be used only after airflow verificationhas been verified by a Test and Balance contractor and is designed to allow for exact tuning of the airflow signal to both the BuildingAutomation System and the Signal Processing Unit display.

Output Offset: The lower starting point of the signal scale. This can be a positive number or a negative number and should be verified and entered as found by the Test and Balance contractors readings. This will come defaulted as a setting of zero

-This setting can be used to relocate the lower end of the total output scale of NJK airflow reading. This is done by either raising orlowering the lower end (bottom) of the airflow scale, effectively “tightening up” the airflows input to output ratio / range. This is mostoften used when a Building Automation System does not have a readily selectable 1 to 10 VDC range and a 0 to 10 VDC range must beadapted for use.

Filter: The flow signal sensing rate from the actual measured signal as delivered to both the displayed value and the value sent to the building automation system (digital signal processing). This takes into account signal sensing output and timing.Available settings are None, 1, 2, 3, 4 , and 5.

-This setting is used to filter out extreme spikes in airflow signals as sensed across the full range of the NJK Sensor. The signal is a Digital SignalProcess (DSP) that takes into account all high and low readings and averages them with the more acceptable readings in the middle of the range of flow. The larger the setting number the more signal averaging and the more forgiving the airflows will be delivered (such as on awindy rooftop outside air application).

Update Rate: The rate of time in which the air flow is updated at the Signal Processing Unit for both the displayed value and the value sent to the building automation system. Update Rate can be 0, 15, 30, 60, 90, or 120 seconds.

-This setting is used to filter out extreme spikes over a time delayed signal to the BAS and SPU Display. The signal is a Digital Signal Process(DSP) that takes into account all airflow readings over a set time delay. The larger the setting number the more time delay and the moreforgiving the airflows will be delivered (such as on a windy rooftop outside air application).

Minimum Flow: The minimum flow (in Feet per Minute) at which the NJK Air Flow Measuring Station will begin to read air flow. This is used in situations where ambient air flows may be present when air handler is not running.

-This setting is used to eliminate false readings of airflow at minimal or unreliable times when dampers are supposedly closed or when fans areturned off and no air should be flowing. This setting is calibrated in Feet Per Minute and eliminates the NJK Airflow sensor from reporting anyairflows below that setpoint regardless of damper positions or fan operation. To set this parameter divide the lowest reporting airflow by theDisplay Area, and then by the Output Gain. This will give you the problematic reporting level in Feet Per Minute.Set this parameter slightly higher than the FPM number to eliminate false flow readings in no-flow conditions.

NJK Troubleshooting:

Locate Sensor Identification numbers

To located connected Flow Sensing Module UUID address through the Signal Processing Unit each connected Flow Sensing Module must be plugged into Multi Sensor Hub individually. The Signal Processing Unit will only recognize

one non-addressed Flow Sensing Module at a time while in the Get Sensor UUID mode.

Get Sensor UUID:

Press right button to select menu.

Press Select Button to enter Display Settings screen.

Press up / down buttons to highlight Sensors, press Select.

Press up / down buttons to highlight Get Sensor UUID, press Select.

Press up / down buttons to highlight Get UUID, press Select twice.

Connected sensor will display reading: Sensor Found: (Sensor I D Number).

Use above Sensor I D Number when adding Sensing Modules to Display.

Press Right button until Home is highlighted, press Select.

Repeat above steps for each Sensing Module connected to Signal Processing Unit and Multi Sensor Hub.

NJK Cabling:

An NJK Signal Processing Unit should never use more than one NJK Multi Sensor Hub per Signal Processing Unit.

The Multi Sensor Hub can accept up to 3 Flow Measuring Modules (FMMs) per Channel and 8 FMMs total.

Sensor Module signal certainty is dependent upon cable lengths, all connections, and sensor system communication traffic (sensor wiring configuration and sensor programming parametersettings).

Single cable lengths of up to 300 feet can be utilized on a single Flow Measuring Module and Signal Processing Unit-S.

Cumulative cable lengths of 300 feet can be safely used when wiring the NJK Signal Processing Unit-M and Multi Hub Unit.

NJK Signal Processing Unit flow signal to Building Automation System cable length will be the responsibility of the BAS Control Contractor.
