CO₂ Sensors

CO₂ sensors are used to detect the presence of carbon dioxide and monitor changes of the air quality. They are used in numerous industries such as manufacturing, agriculture and health and for air quality monitoring in homes and offices. Based on the determined CO₂ values, ventilation systems can be controlled to ensure good air quality while minimizing energy consumption.

Use Cases for Condition Monitoring using CO₂ Sensors

CO₂ sensors can be used in a wide range of applications. Here are some examples:

Air quality monitoring

Ensuring good quality of the breathed air has become a major issue. CO₂ sensors are commonly used for monitoring indoor air quality in office buildings, schools, hospitals or smart homes.
