Compact CO2 monitor with alarm for many applications in air quality monitoring, green houses, energy management and for research and education. The CO2 is measured with a high-class non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) sensor via opening at instruments head. Simultaneous display of time weighted average exposure over 8 hours (TWA) or 15 minutes (STEL).
CO2 – Dangerous at concentration > 3% The ECO420 is an ideal measuring warning instrument for moderate but non-dangerous levels – it is no replacement for personal safety equipment to be used in areas with potentially dangerous atmosphere.

Description

ECO 420 – Compact CO₂ monitor with alarm (formerly G 1910)

Compact CO2 monitor with alarm for many applications in air quality monitoring, green houses, energy management and for research and education.

The CO2 is measured with a high-class non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) sensor via opening at instruments head.

Simultaneous display of time weighted average exposure over 8 hours (TWA) or 15 minutes (STEL).

CO2 – Dangerous at concentration > 3%
The ECO420 is an ideal measuring warning instrument for moderate but non-dangerous levels – it is no replacement for personal safety equipment to be used in areas with potentially dangerous atmosphere.

ATTENTION:
Never enter potentially dangerous areas where CO2 may exceed 3% or 30000 ppm CO2 without additional personal safety equipment!

Display
Thanks to the backlight, the three-line LCD display offers ergonomic wide-angle visibility – by day and by night.
The HOLD function enables the display values to be frozen.

Power supply
2 powerful AA NiMH rechargeable batteries, the energy-saving design and the configurable automatic switch-off function ensure long operation.
Configurable LCD backlight for further energy-saving options.

APPLICATIONS

Air Quality Monitoring
- Measuring CO₂ concentration to assess and maintain healthy indoor environments.
Air Hygiene Monitoring
- Ensures ventilation adequacy in closed or semi-enclosed spaces like offices, classrooms, or conference rooms.
Greenhouses
- Tracks CO₂ levels to optimize plant growth and photosynthesis.
Energy Management
- Helps optimize HVAC operation by monitoring indoor CO₂ for demand-controlled ventilation.
Research and Education
- Ideal for use in labs, universities, and schools for demonstrations or environmental studies.
