KLQ - CO
2
The maintenance-free microprocessor-controlled AERASGARD
®
KLQ-CO
2
is designed for
duct installation and is used to detect the air quality regarding VOC and the CO
2
content
in air. This sensor is optionally available with or without display. This CO
2
and mixed gas
sensor is optionally available with or without display. The CO
2
content of air is determined
by a dual beam NDIR sensor (non-dispersive infrared technology). The CO
2
content in air
is determined by a NDIR sensor (non-dispersive infrared technology). The detection
ranges of these sensors are calibrated for standard applications such as monitoring of
residential rooms or conference rooms. Room ventilation on an as-needed basis,
improvement of well-being and customer benefit, increased comfort as well as a reduction
of operating costs by energy con servation are only some of the beneficial results of
employing AERASGARD
®
KLQ-CO
2
sensors.
The new design implies the alternative to choose between three sensibility ranges
for VOC monitoring by means of DIP switches, comparable to three measuring ranges:
LOW for low, MEDIUM (default) for medium, and HIGH for high VOC sensibility.
Also three measuring ranges were introduced for CO
2
content measurement.
The selection between the measuring ranges 0...2000 ppm (default), 0...5000 ppm,
and 0...10000 ppm is likewise enabled via DIP switches.
Above explanations show that applications for CO
2
measurement, applications for VOC
measurement, but from our point of view first of all applications for a combination of
both measurands do exist. Crucial in this respect is that both of these measurands are
not convertible into each other and derivations to or from another cannot be made.
A NDIR CO
2
measuring instrument measures selectively and cannot detect any VOC,
a VOC mixed gas sensor cannot recognize CO
2
molecules.
