IR-540 CO2

Detcon Model IR-540 Detectors are non-intrusive "smart" sensors designed to detect and monitor carbon dioxide.

The available detection ranges are 0-0.3%, 0-1%, 0-3% and 0-5% by volume.

The sensor assembly consists of a miniature infrared optical sensor in a stainless steel housing that includes a splash guard with integral cal port, a pluggable control emitter circuit, a basic connection board and an explosion-proof enclosure.

  • CSA and UL Listed: Class I, Division 1, Groups B, C and D

  • Simple Menu Driven Calibration - takes less than 3 minutes

  • Backlit LCD and LED indicators for FAULT and CAL status

  • Field replaceable miniature optical sensor

  • Pluggable field replaceable transmitter

  • Low energy consumption

  • Expected life of the 5 year sensor
