measurement range 0 ... 10 000 ppmCO
2
.
• Measurement up to 30 000 ppmCO
2
with reduced accuracy.
• Operating temperature range -40 … +60 °C (-40 … +140 °F).
• Vaisala CARBOCAPâ CO
2
sensor with excellent long-term stability.
• Measurement compensated for eects of temperature, pressure, and background gas.
The temperature compensation can be based on an integrated temperature sensor or
use a set temperature. Pressure and background gas parameters can be set to the
probe.
• Heating to avoid condensation on optical elements.
• Digital output with RS-485:
• Modbus RTU
• Vaisala Industrial Protocol
• Analog output:
• Current output (0 ... 20 mA or 4 ... 20 mA)
• Voltage output (0 ... 5 V or 0 … 10 V)
• Can be used as a stand-alone probe or with Vaisala Indigo transmitters.
• Can be connected to Vaisala Insight software for
configuration, diagnostics, and
temporary online monitoring.
• Compatible with MI70 hand-held meter.
• Easy plug-in, plug-out.
