This kit is perfect to start measuring CO2 levels in harsh environments like chicken or pig barns, but also in schools and office buildings. For humans it is recommended to keep the CO2 concentration below 900ppm at all times. Chickens are happy at CO2 levels up to 3000ppm. The included sensor also measures temperature, which can help you to keep the heating bill under control.
Measuring CO2 is a challenging endeavour. Crodeon aims to help customers in this process by using quality hardware, following manufacturer’s technical instructions and translating these requirements into understandable guidelines for the end user.
This kit contains one CO2 sensor and one Crodeon Reporter. Enjoy live measurements on your pc or smartphone using the Crodeon Dashboard. The built-in alarm engine lets you configure thresholds for each sensor in order to receive notifications by SMS, mail or voice call when something goes wrong.
Pre-calibrated for your convenience
The Crodeon CO2 sensor uses the Sensirion SCD30 module for measuring CO2, temperature and humidity. This self-calibrating dual-channel NDIR sensor requires no manual maintenance by the user, another huge time saver.
During manufacturing of your CO2 sensor, Crodeon performs the FRC calibration algorithm as instructed by Sensirion. No further calibration is required by the end user. The accuracy will not deviate more than +/-50ppm during the lifetime of the sensor. More technical specifications of this sensor can be found in our shop.
1 year subscription included
The Crodeon Reporter requires a yearly subscription to operate. The subscription covers things like connectivity and use of the Crodeon Dashboard. This kit has a 12 months subscription included.
Installation
The SCD30 is built into a vented enclosure in order to allow optimal air circulation. When installing the sensor in an outdoor environment, please mount the sensor with the ventilation holes directed to the sides. If the sensor is directly exposed to rainy weather conditions, appropriate protection using a rain shield or weather cover is required.
The sensor is connected to your Crodeon Reporter with the included M12 extension cord. Additional extension cords can be purchased in the Crodeon shop. The maximum cable length between the sensor and Reporter is 30m.
All Crodeon sensors are plug & play compatible with your Reporter. Browse our shop and select the sensors, accessories and Reporters of your choice, or choose one of the pre-composed kits that match your needs.
