CO2 Engine ELG
Sensor module for environment parameters logging
CO2 Engine ELG NDIR CO2 Sensor Module General
▪ This document describes a family of sensor modules CO2 Engine ELG designed to measure and store records of environmental parameters such as
- Temperature
- Relative Humidity
- CO2 concentration (up to 5000ppm range).
▪ The sensor module CO2 Engine ELG is designed for battery powered operation with low average power consumption without compromising measurement precision and resolution.
▪ Virtual RTC (Real Time Clock) allows data and events logging with time stamps.
▪ Events include sensor power on, logging start/stop, ABC self calibration, user initiated zero and background calibrations.
▪ Reading of logger via I2C connector and SenseAir’s I2C - USB bridge (SADK).
▪ I2C or UART communication can be used to read logged data for built in modules.

2 Sensors are 100% tested in production at 45C / 85%RH / 1000ppm CO2 for one hour. For applications operating continuously in high humidity, contact SenseAir for further information.
3 Different options exist and can be customized depending on the application. Please, contact SenseAir for further information!
4 Notice that absolute maximum rating is 12V, so sensor can not be used with 12V+-10% supply.
5 Accuracy is specified over operating temperature range at normal pressure 1013 mBar. Specification is referenced to certified calibration mixtures. Uncertainty of calibration gas mixtures (+-2% currently) is to be added to the specified accuracy for absolute measurements.
6 Specification is provided by Sensirion.
7 Minimum 5 minutes measurement period.
