The CO2-1 SMA is a compact carbon dioxide meter that can be used with PreSens CO2 SensorPlugs. It offers temperature compensation for precise pH measurements. This meter is USB-powered and can be operated with the PreSens Measurement Studio 2 software.
General
This single-channel CO2 meter is small and lightweight for easy integration in many applications. It is compatible with CD1 sensors from PreSens (measurement range 1 - 25% CO2), including SensorPlugs for non-invasive measurements, without any risk of contamination. For use with the SensorPlugs, an SMA-ST Adapter is needed to interface the meter with the optic fiber and the SensorPlug.
The CO2-1 SMA meter offers temperature-compensated measurements to provide precise CO2 measurements even in an environment with changing temperatures (temperature sensor not included). It is USB-powered and is operated with the PreSens Measurement Studio 2 software, which can control several devices simultaneously.
The complete setup for PreSens technology includes a meter, a sensor, and relevant accessories including the optic fiber. These components can easily be integrated to any microfluidics and organ-on-chip experiments.
Optical sensors offer several advantages that render them particularly well-suited for controlling small sample volumes:
- They are small
- The signal does not depend on the flow rate of the sample
- They allow for non-invasive measurement

* All systems can be used without a temperature sensor as the temperature value used for temperature compensation can be set manually in the respective device software. Therefore, the measurement temperature has to be known and remain constant throughout the measurement to ensure correct temperature compensation.
