Product catalog summary
Technical Specifications
The CO-D4 Carbon Monoxide Sensor is a miniature sensor designed for detecting carbon monoxide levels. Key performance metrics include a sensitivity range of 30 to 48 nA/ppm at 400ppm CO, a response time of less than 25 seconds, and a zero current equivalent of less than ±3 ppm. The sensor has a resolution of less than 1.5 ppm and a performance warranty range up to 1,000 ppm, with a maximum overgas range of 2,000 ppm.

Lifetime and Environmental Conditions
The sensor exhibits a zero drift of less than 0.2 ppm per year and a sensitivity drift of less than 0.5% per month. It has an operating life of over 24 months, with a warranted period of 24 months. The sensor operates effectively within a temperature range of -20°C to 50°C and a pressure range of 80 to 120 kPa. It is designed to function in humidity levels between 15% and 90% relative humidity.

Cross Sensitivity
The sensor's cross sensitivity to various gases is minimal, with less than 0.1% sensitivity to SO2, NO2, Cl2, H2S, and NH3 at specified concentrations. It shows a higher sensitivity to NO and H2, with values of less than 50% and 70% respectively.

Key Specifications
The sensor weighs less than 2 grams and is recommended to be used with a load resistor between 10 to 100 ohms. It should be stored in a sealed pot at temperatures between 3°C and 20°C for up to 6 months.

Figures and Data Interpretation
Figures included in the document illustrate the sensor's sensitivity and zero output variations with temperature changes, as well as its performance under overgas conditions. The data shows consistent performance across a typical batch of sensors, with mean values and ±95% confidence intervals provided.

Additional Information
Alphasense Ltd reserves the right to modify design features and specifications without prior notice. The document provides guidance only, and users are advised to test the sensors under their own conditions to ensure suitability for specific applications.

Where such exposure occurs thesensor will recover normal electrolyte volumes when allowed to rest at lower %rh and temperature levels for several days. NOTE: all sensors are tested at ambient environmental conditions, with 10 ohm load resistor, unless otherwise stated.
