GM70 Hand-Held Carbon Dioxide Meter
The Vaisala CARBOCAP®, (a silicon-based infrared (IR) absorption sensor), Hand-Held Carbon Dioxide Meter GM70 is typically used for taking spot measurements in laboratories, greenhouses and mushroom farms. The meter can also be used in HVAC and industrial applications, and as a tool for checking fixed CO2 instruments. It has two optional sampling methods: diffusion or pump aspiration. Data can be logged and transferred to PC via MI70 Link software. It has a menu-based interface, a graphical LCD display and data logging capability.
