This sensor can be used, as it is, to measure the changing CO2 levels in a room or environment. The specially designed casing can also form a closed chamber when using standard laboratory beakers and conical flasks. The casing also allows for inserting additional sensors into a chamber such as temperature and Oxygen.
This sensor has 2 ranges.
Applications:
Environmental:
Variances in classroom CO2 levels
Biology:
Plant photosynthesis and respiration
Respiration of small organisms e.g. microbes, maggots
Measuring human CO2 production
Chemistry:
Candle in Bell Jar (measuring CO2 emissions)
