Wireless Carbon Dioxide Sensor

The Wireless Smart Carbon Dioxide sensor uses a pulsed infrared light source to measure the amount of carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a strong absorber of infrared, so a reduction of the infrared from source to detector will be proportional to the amount of carbon dioxide present.

The sensor is only for the measurement of carbon dioxide in dry gas environments, and is temperature compensated and can operate in high humidity environments.

The Wireless Smart Carbon Dioxide sensor also has temperature and pressure sensors built in.

This sensor can be used to investigate the amount of CO2 in the air and how it changes over time. A Nalgene bottle, into which it fits, is included to create a contained environment for study of plants and small animals. (NB for gaseous use only. Not for use in water).

EXAMPLE SCIENCE EXPERIMENTS

Here are just a few example practical ideas you can achieve by using the Wireless Carbon Dioxide Sensor.

  • CO2 levels around a photosynthesising plant
  • Demonstrating the density of CO2
  • Respiration in small animals (e.g. insect larvae) at different temperatures
  • Monitoring CO2 in the local environment as a measure of ventilation or quality
  • CO2 level of expired and inspired air
  • Emissions from vehicle exhausts
  • Elevated CO2 in exercising and post exercise individuals
