Ventilation >>>
CO2 sensors are used in ventilation systems to measure the carbon dioxide levels in the air. Ventilation systems clean the air in enclosed spaces and provide fresh air. However, when ventilation systems run unnecessarily, they can cause energy waste. Therefore, CO2 sensors allow ventilation systems to operate automatically, providing energy savings.
These sensors measure the carbon dioxide levels in the air and automatically activate the ventilation systems. The control panel receives data from the CO2 sensor and decides when the ventilation system should run. By using CO2 sensors in ventilation systems, energy savings are achieved.
Greenhouse <<<
When used in greenhouses, a CO2 sensor helps measure carbon dioxide levels to optimize the plant growth process. CO2 sensors continuously measure the CO2 concentration in the greenhouse air, and the measured values are sent to a control unit. The control unit analyzes the values and manages the operation of the greenhouse ventilation system.
Typically, sensors are placed in the center of the greenhouse, but they can also be installed in areas with high plant density. Placement may vary depending on the height of the greenhouse. In tall greenhouses, sensors may need to be mounted near the ceiling, while in low-ceiling greenhouses, placing them closer to ground level is more suitable.
Office Air Quality >>>
CO2 sensors can be used to control indoor air quality in buildings. People, pets, and various devices inside buildings can increase CO2 levels in the air. High CO2 concentrations can be harmful to human health and reduce indoor air quality. CO2 sensors continuously measure CO2 levels indoors and provide control over the building’s ventilation system.
CO2 sensors are commonly used in classrooms, meeting rooms, offices, and other enclosed spaces. They are usually wall-mounted and placed in the proper location to best measure airflow inside the building. The measured CO2 levels are sent to a control unit, and the ventilation system is adjusted according to these values, optimizing indoor air quality
Factory Air Quality <<<
CO2 sensors are commonly used in factories to control ventilation systems and achieve energy savings. During the production process, various operations can cause CO2 emissions. These emissions may be harmful to workers’ health and can reduce the quality of indoor air within the factory.
By measuring CO2 levels inside the factory, CO2 sensors help regulate and control ventilation systems. Sensors can be installed in different areas of the factory; for example, in high-activity zones, placing sensors closer to those areas is more effective. The sensors are connected to the factory’s ventilation systems, and the measured CO2 levels are sent to a control unit, which manages the operation of the ventilation system.
Food Storage >>>
CO2 sensors are used in food storage areas to help control storage conditions. High CO2 levels in food storage spaces can cause food to spoil and reduce its quality. Therefore, CO2 sensors are employed to monitor CO2 levels and maintain the quality of stored food.
In food storage facilities, CO2 sensors are typically wall-mounted or strategically placed within the area. The sensors measure CO2 concentrations and assist in regulating the environment. They are often integrated with cooling systems commonly used in storage areas. This integration allows cooling systems to adjust based on the measured CO2 levels, helping preserve food quality.
