The carbon dioxide gas sensor measures gaseous carbon dioxide levels by detecting the quantity of IR radiation absorbed by carbon dioxide molecules. The sensor employs a hot metal filament that acts as an IR source to generate IR radiation. The IR source is located at one end of a sensor tube, and another end is provided with an IR sensor.
The key components are an infrared source, a light tube, an interference (wavelength) filter, and an infrared detector. The gas is pumped or diffuses into the light tube, and the electronics measures the absorption of the characteristic wavelength of light. NDIR sensors are most often used for measuring carbon dioxide.The best of these have sensitivities of 20â50 PPM.he gas is pumped or diffuses into the light tube, and the electronics measures the absorption of the characteristic wavelength of light.
