Description
AQD-WM300 (RS485) is an indoor air quality controller with screen provides customers with visual indoor air quality readings, such as PM2.5, CO2, temperature, humidity, etc. It is widely used in residential, commercial and industrial applications, and can effectively improve air quality and create a healthy, comfortable, efficient, environmentally friendly, energy-saving living and working environment.
Features
Compatible with embedded and wall-mounted fixing methods; Compatible with push-button and touch-screen operation; Using standard 86 box size, thickness <24mm; PM2.5, CO2, temperature and humidity etc., multiple sensors can be optionally selected.
Working Principle
The built-in dust sensor uses the principle of laser scattering technology to detect the indoor PM2.5 mass concentration in real time (g/m³). The built-in carbon dioxide sensor uses the principle of NDIR technology to detect indoor CO2 concentration in real time (ppm). The temperature and humidity sensor use capacitor resistance material to detect the indoor temperature (° C) and humidity (%) in real time.

Installation Instructions
Step 1: Fix the wall mounted bracket with screws on the 86 box which in the embedded wall, as shown below:
Step 2: Connecting Cable, connect the corresponding cable to the controller’s RS485 interface according to the interface definition, as shown below:
Step 3: Match the two holes in the controller with the hooks in the wall mount bracket and slide the controller down to ensure that the controller is tightly locked with the bracket.

Precautions for use
Do not place the controller in an environment where the ambient temperature is too high (above 60 ° C) or too low (below -20 ° C). Keep it out of reach of children as much as possible to prevent injury from collision and fall. Do not drop the controller or rub it against hard objects during use, otherwise it may cause damage to the controller’s external light and damage. Do not place the controller in a dusty environment to avoid dust accumulation in the controller and affect the measurement accuracy. When using the controller, do not cover or block the vent hole with any object to avoid affecting the air quality monitoring. Do not disassemble, repair or modify the controller without permission.
