These CO2 sensors require
very little power
The CozIR-LP3 ultra-low-power CO2
sensor
(photo)
includes
on-board
power management, allowing the
user to control sensor power consumption
during measurements and
when the sensor is inactive. The user
can reduce active current consumption
to less than 1 μA without switching
off the sensor. The CozIR-LP3 is
based on the company's proprietary
solid-state non-dispersive infra-red
(NDIR) LED technology, where the
sensor measures concentration levels
by analyzing the amount of light
absorbed by the CO2 gas. Users
have a choice of UART or I2C control
interfaces, digital and analog CO2
measurements and a fail-safe digital
alarm level monitor. - Gas Sensing

An integrated 900-MHz sensor
network-to-cloud solution
This company's wireless sensor network
has been integrated with Machfu's
Industrial IoT Gateway (photo).
The gateway incorporates edge intelligence,
multi-protocol translation
capabilities and multi-dimensional security
features, resulting in a versatile
and secure sensor-to-cloud solution.
Operating this company's Edge Application
on Machfu's Edge Gateway
enables users to easily and wirelessly
bring all sensor measurements from
a sensor network into their cloud application.
With a single click, the IIoT
Gateway automatically communicates
with the gateway to discover wireless
nodes in a network, collect measurements
from sensors and transmit
them over cellular, WiFi or Ethernet
connections. - SignalFire Wireless

Measure CO2 concentrations
with this sensor chip
The STC31 sensor (photo) is a chipsized
gas-concentration sensor for
high-range, accurate CO2 measurements
designed for high-volume applications.
The sensor is based on a
thermal-conductivity
measurement
principle, which results in superior
repeatability and long-term stability.
This makes the STC31 suitable for
applications such as cold-chain logistics
where reliability is key. The sensor
features a digital I2C interface, which
makes it easy to connect directly to a
microprocessor. The accuracy is 0.5
vol.%. and ±3% of measured value
and the response time is faster than 1 s.

A multi-parameter, handheld
device and pH electrode
The Liquiline Mobile CML18 handheld
device and Memosens CPL51E
laboratory pH sensor (photo) were
introduced last November. The multiparameter
handheld device enables
easy and reliable monitoring of a
variety of critical measured values.
The CML18 and the CPL51E pH
electrode can be paired together for
applications in the laboratory or for
grab-sample analysis in the field. Historically,
different products are used
for laboratory analysis versus process
measurements. With the Liquiline
Mobile CML18 device, the same
Memosens sensors that are used in
the process can also be used in the
laboratory. This guarantees complete
consistency of data. The Liquiline Mobile
CML18 device can be operated
easily using the intuitive SmartBlue
application (app). All measured values
and sensor data are transferred
via a secure Bluetooth connection to
the app on a smartphone or tablet. -

Inventory-management
software for HART sensors
Binventory (photo) is an advanced
inventory-management software that
enables plants to manage level data
from all vessels with a single program.
This allows users to monitor the level
of solids or liquids in bins, tanks, or
silos from one platform. Binventory is
now compatible with sensors using
the HART protocol or Modbus output.
Binventory works with many types of
sensors, including non-contact-radar
and guided-wave radar used for level
measurement. The software allows
for bulk densities and strapping tables
to be entered for solids, while entering
specific gravity for liquid tanks
ensures accurate volumes. Complex
vessels of different shapes and sizes
