Enhancing Sustainability: The EnoSense CO2 Sensor with Solar-Powered Smart Design

EnoSense® CO2 for measuring the CO2 concentration in the room air

Our new CO2 sensor operates energy self-sufficiently via the integrated solar cell when there is sufficient illuminance. The EnoSense® CO2 sends its current measured values every 5 minutes. In addition to CO2, the sensor measures the relative humidity. humidity and the air temperature. To provide the best possible support for maintenance and diagnostics, it also delivers all relevant energy values to the cloud. If the ambient light is not sufficient, 2 AAA batteries (VARTA Industrial) supply the sensor with power.

Universally applicable

The measured values at a glance

The EnoSense CO2 supplies the following measured values with each telegram:

CO2
CO2
Measuring range: 0 – 2,550 ppm (others on request) Accuracy: +/- 30 ppm +/- 3% of the measured value Repeatability: 10 ppm Temperature stability: 2.5 ppm / °C (0 .. 50°C)
Temperature

Measuring range: 0 … 95 % rel. hum. Accuracy: +/- 2 % Repeatability: 0.1 % rel. hum. Hum.
Every 5 minutes

The measured values

The sensor delivers typical results under typical lighting conditions, even in solar-only mode. new measured values every 5 minutes. On this basis, you can finally supply your building automation system with meaningful data. With a transmission interval of e.g. 15 minutes in solar mode, this was previously not possible!

If there is sufficient light, the EnoSense CO2 continuously sends new measurement data every 5 minutes.
If it is dark for a longer period of time, it reduces the transmission interval to 60 minutes.

By day and by night

Solar cell + batteries

The EnoSense CO2 has two internal AAA batteries for trouble-free operation day and night, in any room at any time.

Do without batteries if the room allows it.
Use batteries for trouble-free operation in difficult situations.
Already equipped with 2 VARTA INDUSTRIAL PRO batteries ex works.

Service & maintenance

The energy data

To significantly improve the diagnosis and maintenance of the system, the EnoSense CO2 also sends all relevant values about the energy supply with every data telegram. This means that the battery voltage, the current output voltage of the solar cell and the voltage of the energy storage unit are continuously available. Is the sensor positioned correctly so that it can be operated solely from the solar cell? When is the battery due for maintenance or replacement? The sensor provides answers to all these questions.
Mounting solution included

Wall bracket for easy installation

With the enclosed wall bracket, the sensor can be stuck to any smooth surface or screwed to a wall with two countersunk screws. Once locked in place, the EnoSense CO2 can be unlocked and removed again later for servicing such as battery replacement or calibration.
Service button

Teach-in telegram and calibration

You can use the integrated service button to - send a teach-in telegram (1x briefly) - start / perform calibration (hold 5s < z < 10s) - set the device to flight mode. (Hold 10s < t < 12s)
Service

Changing the battery

If it should ever be necessary to replace the batteries, this is also very easy. Watch the video here to see how the batteries are replaced.
