CO2, Temperature and RH Sensor with colour touch display
tSENSE is an advanced and versatile 3-in-1 sensor designed for installation in the air-conditioned zone. It measures CO2 concentration, temperature and humidity in the ambient air accurately without need for additional compensation – true read. The data transmits to a BMS system or stand-alone controller using industry standard output signals and communication protocols.
tSENSE combines all the necessary elements for effective climate control in
commercial office buildings, hospitals, hotels, schools and other facilities.
Using CO2- monitoring for demand control ventilation (DCV) allows healthy,
comfortable and cost-effective environment for the occupants.
tSENSE is flexible in design with temperature control in combination with
humidity control optional.
Though suitable for use in many different energyefficient ventilation
strategies, Senseair welcomes any discussions for specific needs.
Complies with ASHRAE standard 189.1 (±50ppm @ 1000ppm of measured CO2 value).
Key benefits
- Maintenance free
- Three sensors in one housing: CO2, temp and RH
- Colour touch display with possibility of customisable GUI

Note 1: No maintenance required in normal indoor air as ABC (Automatic
Baseline Correction) is used.
Note 2: In normal IAQ applications, accuracy is defined after minimum
three (3) ABC-pe riods of continuous operation with ABC.
Note 3: Accuracy is specified over operating temperature range.
Specification is refer enced to certified calibration mixtures. Uncertainty of
calibration gas mixtures (±1% currently) is to be added to the specified
accuracy for absolute measurements.
Note 4: Repeatability is included. Uncertainty of calibration gases (±1%)
is added to the specified accuracy.
Note 5: Depending on display brightness setting.
Note 6: Can be configured with PC software UIP (version 5 or later). See
