Introduction

The Wireless CO

2

 Sensor is a combination wireless 

and

 

USB sensor that connects to a computing device 

through 

, and can also connect to a computer 

with a USB cable (included). The sensor measures car

-

bon dioxide concentration in the range between 0 parts 

per million (ppm) and 100,000 ppm. The sensor can be 

used with or without the included gas sampling bottle. 

The PASCO Data Collection Software will display and 

analyze the measurements from the sensor. NOTE: The 

software also supports “remote data logging” for long 

term experiments. 

The sensor is designed to optimize the battery usage 

time. Since each sensor has a unique Device ID 

number, more than one can be connected to a computer 

or tablet at the same time.
