2.5 How to make measurement

2.5.1 Measuring CO and CO

2

and Attentions

The diffusion state of the air(State of flow) affects response time of CO and CO

2

sensor. In order to

obtain an exact measurement result, please measure in the place which has the flow of air as much
as possible.

Mechanism of CO and CO

2

sensor has a limitation in accuracy when measurement takes place

under drastic thermal change. When a sensor and measuring object have apparent thermal
discrepancy, leave a probe in open air for at least 20 minutes before you start a measurement.

After turning a POWER ON, sensor circuit requires 5 minutes to warm-up. For an accurate
measurement result, please wait for 5 minutes after turn the Power ON.

Keep this sensor away from expiratory air; exhaled air contain more than 10,000ppm of CO

2

and

exhaled cigarette smoke contains a few ppm of CO. We recommend you to place a probe on the
provided probe stand.

<How to use a Probe Stand>

Lightly push grip part of probe into holder of probe stand.

Be sure to place the probe stand on the horizontal and stabilized stand. Unstable place may cause

probe stand to fall and damage the probe.
