This CO₂ flow sensor is specifically designed for precision gas flow monitoring, offering multiple selectable ranges of 0-30/50/100/200/300/500/1000 sccm with an output impedance of 200Ω and excellent signal consistency. The gas flow sensor operates at a typical voltage of 10V and current of 25mA, with a response time of just 50ms to rapidly capture flow changes. It supports long-term stable operation in environments ranging from 0 to 50°C.
CO2 flow sensors typically employ the thermal mass flow principle, calculating CO₂ flow by detecting changes in heat dissipation as gas passes through the probe. The sensor contains a heating element and a temperature-sensitive component. Greater gas flow results in more pronounced heat dissipation, causing the output signal to change accordingly. Through calibration and compensation algorithms, the device outputs stable, linear CO₂ flow data for real-time monitoring.
Common units for CO₂ flow sensors are SCCM (Standard Cubic Centimeters per Minute) or SLPM (Standard Liters per Minute). These units are based on standard temperature and pressure conditions to ensure comparability of flow data across different environments. Thus, consistent and accurate flow readings are maintained whether used in laboratory equipment, industrial process control, or gas analysis.
Most CO₂ flow sensors incorporate built-in temperature compensation to maintain accurate measurements within their specified operating temperature range. For example, a common range is 0°C to 50°C, where the sensor automatically corrects errors caused by gas temperature fluctuations. However, compensation effectiveness may diminish outside this range. It is recommended to use the sensor within the conditions specified in the datasheet to ensure stability.
