Overview

 

This portable CO2Meter, Inc. sampling data logger is designed to monitor 
oxygen (O2) in real‐time in concentration levels from 0% to 25%.  

Sampling data loggers log data for a specified period of time and store up to 
60,000 data points to its internal memory to be retrieved at a later time for 
analysis.  

When combined with our 

GasLab

®

 

software, it allows you to see data in real 

time on your computer’s screen. Its built‐in 1,000‐hour (10,000‐hour 
optional) sampling micro‐pump ensures reliable operation for persistent 
readings based on user‐selected time intervals.  

Among others, this meter is ideal for the following applications: 

Incubation 
Fermentation monitoring and validation 
Agricultural O2 up take analysis 
Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) 
O2 leak detection 
Fire suppression system testing 

Scientific devices such as this oxygen meter require users to have intimate 
knowledge of the sensor’s features, limitations, operation, required software, 
and specifications prior to use. CO2Meter, Inc. highly recommends reading 
this user’s manual before operating this sensor, especially the
