About this manual

The SCS C02S infrared CO2 sensor uses NDIR LED technology for fast response, low power consumption, and high accuracy. It operates from -25 °C to +55 °C with built‑in temperature compensation and offers both digital RS‑232 and optional analog voltage outputs.

The manual details the sensor's dimensions, power options (5 V or 3.3 V), wiring via Molex connectors, serial communication settings (9600 baud, 8‑N‑1), zero‑point calibration procedures, and advanced features such as filter parameter tuning and full‑scale calibration. This manual is written in Chinese.

Frequently asked questions

How do I perform zero‑point calibration?

Apply a low‑level signal to pin 3 for at least 1 s while the sensor is exposed to nitrogen or clean air; the sensor will then send a response indicating successful zero calibration.

What are the serial communication settings?

The sensor uses 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, with no hardware flow control.

What power supply voltages are supported?

Standard operation uses 5 V DC (4.7 V–5.5 V), and a low‑voltage option of 3.3 V DC (3.3 V–5.5 V) is also available.
