Overview

The PS1-VOC-500-MOD is a pre-calibrated Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) sensor module featuring a UART interface for simplified system integration. It utilizes electrochemical technology to provide accurate measurements across a 0-500ppm range with integrated compensation for temperature and humidity.

Why Choose This Part

The module is factory calibrated and plug-and-play, significantly reducing development time and manufacturing complexity. It features a wide operating temperature range from -40C to 55C and consumes less than 5mA during operation, making it suitable for battery-powered or low-power environmental sensing applications.

Applications

Indoor Air Quality Monitoring
Integration into HVAC systems and air purifiers to detect total VOC levels for automated ventilation control.
Industrial Gas Detection
Fixed or portable safety monitors for detecting hazardous concentrations of organic vapors in workplace environments.
Smart Building Automation
Deployment in networked sensor nodes to monitor building wellness and occupant safety.
