The Science of NDIR Detection
How does our sensor achieve laboratory-grade CO2 measurements?
Prana Air monitoring systems are built on NDIR technology—an optical method that detects gas molecules by measuring infrared light absorption, ensuring high specificity for CO2.
Why is CO2 Monitoring So Important?
CO2 is a natural byproduct of human breathing. In closed, crowded, or poorly ventilated rooms, levels can rise quickly. While outdoor air is around 400 PPM, indoor air can reach hazardous levels without proper monitoring and air exchange.

Data Visualization Analysis
Hourly Carbon Dioxide Level Changes
Monitor how CO2 levels (PPM) fluctuate throughout the day to better manage your ventilation. Recognizing pollution peaks helps in maintaining a healthier indoor climate.
Weekly CO2 Data Insights
Our sensor delivers comprehensive weekly data, highlighting how occupancy levels impact air quality in schools and workspaces. Track these levels to ensure safety for everyone.
The Value of Real-Time Tracking
Excess indoor CO2 often results in:
Lowered Alertness:
High gas concentrations significantly impact mental clarity and work productivity.
Health Issues
Long-term exposure can negatively affect respiratory health and general cognitive function.
Occupant Discomfort
Poor air quality causes heaviness, discomfort, and general fatigue for building occupants.
CO2 Levels: Air Quality Guidelines
Optimal levels for maintaining health, comfort, and peak productivity.
Slightly elevated levels; ventilation is recommended for sensitive individuals.
High CO2 can cause drowsiness, mild headaches, or a lack of focus.
Continuous exposure in this range can lead to noticeable physical discomfort.
Dangerous levels that require immediate ventilation to prevent severe discomfort.
Critical concentrations; vacate the area or initiate maximum ventilation immediately.
Sophisticated Sensor Calibration
Our sensors use the industry-standard zero-point calibration method. This process sets a baseline of 400 PPM over a 96-hour (4-day) cycle to ensure long-term precision and data reliability.
Versatile Uses of the CO2 Sensor
Key Sources of Carbon Dioxide
Man-Made Sources
Burning fossil fuels in cars, trucks, and airplanes.
Open-air burning of agricultural and domestic waste.
Factories and power plants using combustion processes.
Indoor air pollution caused by tobacco smoking.
Natural Events
Carbonate rocks releasing gas when in contact with water.
Massive release of greenhouse gases during eruptions.
Gases released from melting ice and glaciers.
Natural gas and petroleum trapped within the Earth's crust.
