Description
Description of carbon sensor TGS***1:
TGS***1 is a new solid electrolyte CO2 sensor which offers
miniaturization and low power consumption. A range of **0~*0,**0ppm
of carbon dioxide can be detected by TGS***1, making it ideal for
indoor air control applications.
The CO2 sensitive element consists of a solid electrolyte formed
between two electrodes, together with a printed heater (RuO2)
substrate. By monitoring the change in electromotive force (EMF)
generated between the two electrodes, it is possible to measure CO2
gas concentration.
The top of the sensor cap contains adsorbent (zeolite) for the
purpose of reducing the influence of interference gases.
TGS***1 exhibits a linear relationship between ∆EMF and CO2 gas
concentration on a logarithmic scale. The sensor displays good long
term stability and shows excellent durability against the effects
of high humidity.
Features of carbon sensor TGS***1:
1) High selectivity to CO2
2) Compact size
3) Low dependency on humidity
4) Long life and low cost
5) Low power consumption
Applications of carbon sensor TGS***1:
1) Indoor air quality control
2) CO2 monitors
