CO2 sensor | wall mounting | LED indicators | PoM
Product description
Temperature, relative humidity, CO2, and ambient light level are all measured by this room sensor. The CO2 level is visually indicated by the green, yellow, and red LED indicators. Modbus RTU communication is used to transmit the measured values. The CO2 sensor element can be replaced.
The power supply is 24 V DC PoM. This means that one RJ45 connector can connect Modbus RTU communication and a 24 V DC power supply. Ambient light detection is used in many applications to control the ventilation system based on the occupancy of the room. Modbus RTU communication allows for the adjustment of all settings. The light intensity of the LEDs used for status indication can also be adjusted.
This sensor is typically used in buildings to monitor CO2 levels and to ensure that adequate fresh air is supplied into the room. This CO2 sensor is commonly found in schools, office buildings, and restaurants.

Additional specifications and description
People produce CO2 or carbon dioxide while breathing. That makes CO2 concentration a good indicator for the occupancy and activity level in a space. The higher the occupancy or activity level, the more fresh air supply is required to maintain good indoor air quality. That is why in many applications, CO2 sensors are used as an indicator for the ventilation requirements. Next to CO2, this sensor also measures temperature, relative humidity and ambient light level. The measured temperature, relative humidity, CO2 level, dew point temperature and ambient light level are available via Modbus RTU communication.
No analogue outputs - only Modbus RTU communication
This sensor does not have analogue outputs which makes it simpler and more cost efficient. All measured values are available via the Modbus input registers of this sensor. Reading the measured values is possible via SenteraWeb - our online HVAC platform, via 3SModbus software, via a BMS system or via another Modbus master device. Modbus has numerous advantages. The most important ones are that digital signals are less susceptible to interference than analogue signals and that longer cables can be used. Cable lengths of up to 1.000 meters are possible.
Visual indication of the measured value
This HVAC transmitter offers a clear, visual indication of the CO2 level via the green, yellow and red LEDs. The green LED indicates that the CO2 level is within range - there is sufficient fresh air supply. When the CO2 level enters the alert range, the yellow LED lights up. Red means that CO2 levels are too high or that there is insufficient fresh air supply. The ranges can be adjusted via the Modbus holding registers. The LED indicators can show the status of one of the three measured values, which is set to CO2 by default.
Reduced installation time
One RJ45 connector is all it takes to connect this sensor. Modbus RTU communication and 24 V DC power supply are connected via one UTP cable - we call it Power over Modbus or PoM. All measured values are available via Modbus RTU communication. To facilitate wiring, we recommend to use the Sentera 24 V DC power supplies with RJ45 connector. These power supplies offer protection against short circuit, overload and overvoltage. A 24 V DC supply voltage increases the safety and reliability of your installation.
This sensor can be mounted on a wall or a surface indoors. The mounting holes are designed to accommodate standard European wall mounting boxes. Two screws are required to secure the sensor to the wall mounting box. The sensor enclosure will completely enclose the wall mounting box. To ensure peak performance, keep the sensor out of direct sunlight.
Enclosure with contemporary design
The enclosure is intended for indoor use only. It has an IP30 rating for dust and moisture protection. Sentera Plastics designed and manufactured the enclosure in-house. It is extremely durable due to the use of high-quality r-ABS plastic. This sensor can be used in most interior styles due to its contemporary modern design.
