VDL - Co2 Controller Digital

Detailed features

• Measurement technology: NDIR sensor – guarantees stability and durability.
• Display: Color LED or LCD screen with separate zones for CO₂, temperature, humidity, current time and alarms.
• Device control: Built-in relay with plug, allows activation/deactivation of external devices (e.g. CO₂ generator or fan) according to CO₂ levels.
• Smart Modes:
  • Plant Mode – activation of CO₂ generator at low values.
  • Human Mode – starting ventilation at high CO₂ levels.
• Day/Night sensor: Automatically detects lighting and optimizes operation according to day or night mode.
• Alarms: Programmable audible warnings for excessively high CO₂ concentrations.
• Historical data: Record and graphically display maximum and minimum values for the last week.
• Measurement range and accuracy:
  • CO₂: 0–9999 ppm
  • Temperature: 0–50 °C
  • Humidity: 5–95% RH
  • Resolution:
    • CO₂: 1 ppm (0–1000); 5 ppm (1000–2000); 10ppm (>2000)
    • Temperature: 0.1 °C
    • Humidity: 1% RH
  • Accuracy:
    • CO₂ < 2000 ppm: ±50 ppm or ±5%
    • CO₂ > 2000 ppm: ±10%
    • Temperature: ±0.6 °C
    • Humidity: ±5% (25°C, 10–90% RH) / ±7% (other ranges)
• Probe with cable: External probe with a cable about 4.5 m long for free positioning in a carbon environment.
• Dimensions and weight:
  • Control panel: approx. 15.6 × 11.6 × 3.9 cm
  • Probe: approx. 11.7 × 3.5 × 2.7 cm
  • Weight: ~750g
• Operating conditions: 0–50 °C, 5–95 % RH
• Warm-up: Ready to use in about 30 seconds.

Recommendations for use

• Mount the wall controller in a convenient location, ensuring the probe cable is positioned amidst the vegetation for accurate measurements.
• Choose “Plant Mode” to automate CO₂ supply via a generator. Or “Human Mode” for safe ventilation at excessive levels.
• Use the day/night function to optimize resource savings and maintain safe conditions.
• Program high concentration alarms and set desired CO₂ values and hysteresis.
• Monitor weekly minimum and maximum values for analysis and optimization of the control process.
