INSTALLATION

INSTRUCTIONS

Indoor air quality transmitters

Siro series

•  READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE 

ATTEMPTING TO INSTALL, OPERATE OR SERVICE THIS DEVICE.

•  Failure to observe safety information and comply with instructions 

can result in PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH AND/OR PROPERTY 

DAMAGE.

•  To avoid electrical shock or damage to equipment, disconnect 

power before installing or servicing and use only wiring with 
insulation rated for full device operating voltage.

•  To avoid potential fire and/or explosion do not use in potentially 

flammable or explosive atmospheres.

•  Retain these instructions for future reference.
•  This product, when installed, will be part of an engineered system 

whose specifications and performance characteristics are not 
designed or controlled by HK Instruments. Review applications 
and national and local codes to assure that the installation will 
be functional and safe. Use only experienced and knowledgeable 
technicians to install this device.

Thank  you  for  choosing  an  HK  Instruments  Siro  series  indoor  air 
quality transmitter. The Siro series transmitters are intended for use 
in building automation systems in the HVAC/R industry.

Siro

 is an indoor air quality transmitter with a modern design. The 

transmitter is available with several optional air quality sensors. The 
modular device can be equipped with CO

2

 concentration and VOC 

(Volatile  Organic  Compounds)  measurements  or  alternatively  PM 
(Particulate Matter) measurement and in addition temperature and 
humidity measurements. It offers easy installation and adjustment, 
several different model options and various output signals that are 
configurable separately for each measurement parameter.

The Siro series devices are available with user interface that includes 
LCD display and buttons making the configuration of the device quick 
and easy. An external configuration tool is available for devices with

-

out user interface. Siro utilizes the industry standard NDIR measure

-

ment principle with self-calibrating ABC logic

TM

 for CO

2

 measurement.

•  PM concentration to measures the size and amount of particulates 

in the indoor air for example to assess the performance of air filters

•  temperature and humidity in HVAC/R environment
