Description

The SprintIR®-6S-20 20% CO2 Sensor (formerly known as the GC-0029) is a high-speed CO2 sensor that can take up to 20 readings per second, making it ideal for applications that require individual measurements at high repetition rates or where the CO2 concentration is changing rapidly.

The sensor is fitted with a standard flow-through adaptor so the CO2 gas can be passed over the optical sensor at high speed.

The SprintIR®-6S 20% CO2 Sensor uses patented NDIR solid-state LED optical technology enabling the sensor to respond to rapidly changing CO2 without compromising parametric performance.
