Senseair LP8 Ultra-Compact CO₂ Sensor – 10,000 ppm Range

Description

The 005-0-0001 LP8 miniature 10,000 ppm CO2 sensor (formerly known as SE-0038) is designed to monitor up to 10,000ppm CO2 concentrations in long-term battery or solar-powered applications.

Features

• Ultra-small footprint NDIR sensor
• One measurement requires only 11.9 mJ of energy
• Designed for long-term battery operation
• Variable measurement period to save energy

A wide range of voltages (2.9-5.5V) enables a variety of power options. For example it can be powered by 3 alkaline 1.5V batteries, or a single 3.6V Li-SOCl2 battery for a more compact alternative.
