Thank you for buying a HOBO Carbon Monoxide logger. With proper care
it will give you years of accurate and reliable measurements.
This manual covers the HOBO Carbon Monoxide logger which is
compatible with the HOBO Shuttle or HandCar running on a Palm
™
handheld allowing for convenient retrieval of data.
Specifications
Measurement Ranges and Accuracy
The HOBO Carbon Monoxide logger has three measurement ranges.
Although normally only one range should be selected, selecting multiple
ranges allows a wider dynamic range without sacrificing resolution at the
low end. Note that selecting multiple ranges results in values being stored
for each range selected, therefore reducing the maximum deployment time
at a given sample rate.
Ranges are selected or viewed by selecting the corresponding channel
shown below.
Logger ranges:
Channel
Nominal range
Actual range
1
0 - 125 ppm
0.2 - 124.3 ppm
2
0 - 500 ppm
1 - 497.1 ppm
3
0 - 2000 ppm
4 - 1988 ppm
Resolution/Accuracy ranges:
Channel
Resolution
Maximum Error (20°C)
Typical Accuracy (20°C)
1
0.5 ppm
±10.5 ppm ±12% of reading
±4.5 ppm ±7% of reading
2
2 ppm
±12 ppm ±12% of reading
±6 ppm ±7% of reading
3
8 ppm
±18 ppm ±12% of reading
±12 ppm ±7% of reading
The CO sensor is temperature compensated over the entire operating
range; however, there may be an additional error that increases as the
temperature gets farther from 20°C. For temperatures from 0°C to 20°C the
readings may be lower by as much as 5% or 5ppm, whichever is greater. For
temperatures from 20°C to 40°C the readings may be higher by as much as
5% or 5ppm, whichever is greater.
Physical shocks or rapid changes in ambient pressure may show up as
spikes in the data.
Common Specifications
Number of measurements: 32,520 maximum
Response time for 90% change: <11 minutes typical
(dependent upon installation location and orientation)
Time accuracy: ±1 minute per week (100 ppm at +68°F or
+20°C), full dependence shown in Plot A
Operating temperature range: +32°F to +104°F
(0°C to +40°C)
Storage temperature: -40°F to +158°F (-40°C to +70°C)
Operating humidity range: 10% to 95% RH, non-condensing
Operating pressure range: 1 Atmosphere ±10%
Cross Gas Interferences: Conforms to UL2034
Size: 5.7" H x 2.6" W x 1.6" D (144 mm x 66 mm x 40 mm)
Weight: 0.29 lbs (0.13 kilograms)
Battery: CR-2032 lithium, user replaceable
Battery life: In normal applications the battery should last one year. In
circumstances where the ambient CO concentration averages 10 ppm or more, the
battery life will be shorter:
Average concentration Battery life
10 ppm
10 months
100 ppm
6 months
1000 ppm
2 months
Expected life of sensor: five years
(Yearly verification is recommended for critical applications.)
