Several tests have shown that the CO2 concentration has a great influence on the well-being and health of the people in a room. The carbon dioxide is emitted by people when breathing into the room air and accumulates in the air. Especially in rooms where several people regularly spend time, too high a concentration can quickly develop. This can lead to various complaints such as concentration difficulties, malaise or headaches. By regular airing the value can be lowered again, unfortunately one recognizes this however only if the value already led to complaints.

For this reason, we recommend the use of a CO2 measuring device, often referred to as a CO2 traffic light. This monitors the CO2 concentration in the air and indicates with the help of a color or a sound when the concentration is too high and the room must be ventilated. Tests have shown that the CO2 concentration in many rooms is too high. We are convinced that the simple and unobtrusive devices are the best solution for most rooms.

How it works

The CO2 concentration is expressed in ppm, which is the value "parts per million". This describes the number of particles of a substance per million particles of substance. The value is comparable to percent or per mille, but describes a proportion in one million particles. The outside air normally has a value of about 400ppm and inside a room a value of 1000ppm should not be exceeded in the best case. At a limit of 1400ppm, the devices give a signal that the room should be ventilated immediately, as the air quality at this point can cause discomfort.

The CO2 meter measures the concentration in the room air by means of a sensor and thus constantly monitors the air quality. Many devices give an exact value digitally with the help of a display, but there are also variants that indicate the concentration with the help of a light signal, similar to a traffic light. All CO2 meters have the function that if the carbon dioxide content is too high, they signal that the room should be ventilated. Thus, you will always know when it is time to ventilate the room to ensure a comfortable indoor climate.

Application

We recommend the use of CO2 meters in all rooms without comfort ventilation where several people regularly spend time. With comfort ventilation, the air in the room is circulated often enough to prevent excessive CO2 concentrations.

Especially in classrooms of schools we recommend a CO2-measuring device, because there a too high concentration can arise quickly and the concentration ability of the pupils has a big influence on the learning success. In addition, the instrument can also be implemented in the classroom to explain carbon dioxide or greenhouse gas emissions. Thus, the instrument serves as a CO2 detector and as a practical application of the taught learning material.

Another typical application for a CO2 monitor is the office. Here, too, the indoor air and a good indoor climate should have a high priority. Good working conditions are especially important for tasks that require a high level of concentration.

Monitoring carbon dioxide levels is also very important, especially for indoor sports, where an above-average amount of CO2 is emitted through breathing. In most sports halls or fitness centers, controlled comfort ventilation is installed, so there is no need to use a CO2 detector. However, in improvised sports rooms or those without comfort ventilation, CO2 traffic lights are even more important.

There are, of course, many other applications where CO2 measurement is useful. Examples can be:

  • Workshops
  • Production rooms
  • In the household e.g. in handicraft rooms, hobby rooms or offices
  • Event rooms
  • Meeting rooms

Advantages of CO2 measuring instruments

Due to the simple but modern design and the compact construction, the instruments fit perfectly into any room, even with high aesthetic demands. Likewise, the instruments are very inexpensive to purchase and can basically be used in any enclosed space. The functionality is very simple and the operation is also very simple. The devices show the measurement with the help of understandable light signals or exact values, so the system can be understood very quickly, for example, even by children at school.
