How and why to measure CO2 accurately?
Welcome to the webinar on How and why to measure CO2 accurately.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) affects people’s safety, the productivity of production and growth processes, and the quality of the final product. Depending on the environment and process, CO2 concentration is typically measured in ppm (parts per million) or percentage %-levels.
In closed processes such as fermentation, incubators, and controlled atmosphere storage CO2 is measured in percentage levels. For example, life science laboratories use special climate chambers to grow or store biological samples such as cell cultures. There, typical measurement and control capability is from 0 to 20 % CO2.
Normal atmospheric air includes CO2 measured at ppm levels. For example, indoors where people spend time, CO2 concentration is typically elevated and needs to be kept under 1000 ppm.
