Description
MH-Z19C carbon dioxide sensor. Uses the non-dispersive infrared principle (NDIR) to detect the presence of CO2 in the air. Features temperature compensation, UART output (3.3 V TTL level) and PWM, high sensitivity, excellent stability and low consumption. Applications: refrigeration equipment, air quality monitoring equipment, air purifiers, demand-controlled ventilation (DCV), etc.

| 1. MH-Z19C has one window to receive the CO2 gas, while MH-Z19B has two. 2. The sampling period for MH-Z19C is 1 second, while for MH-Z19B it is 5 seconds. 3. The power supply for MH-Z19C is (5+/-0.1) V, while for MH-Z19B it is 4.5~5.5 V. 4. MH-Z19C has an analogue output, while MH-Z19B does not. 5. The warm-up time for MH-Z19C is 2.5 minutes, while for MH-Z19B it is 3 minutes. 6. The default self-calibration cycle for MH-Z19C is 1 day, but a 7-day cycle can be chosen if needed. MH-Z19B’s is 1 day. Overall, MH-Z19C offers greater consistency and better performance than MH-Z19B and can directly replace MH-Z19B. They share the same dimensions. |
