The CO-B1 AlphaSense Carbon Monoxide sensor is designed to protect individuals near hazardous gases like carbon monoxide in homes, office buildings, commercial facilities, and industrial settings. The CO-B1 features on-board memory to log data when used in a remote device, paired with a 32mm diameter package, this is the best choice for fixed site applications.
Features
- Electrochemical Sensor Measures up to 5,000ppm Carbon Monoxide
- Smart EC Board includes Barometric Pressure, Temperature and % Relative Humidity Sensors
- Smart EC Board adds Serial UART output
- Smart EC Board adds RS485 output with optional
- Easy Integration; Compact & Low Power
Models
- CO-B1 Sensor Only – 32mm diameter CO sensor, the best choice for fixed site applications
- CM-31911 Development Kit – Easy to use, simply plug the EC Board into your PC via the included serial UART to USB cable. Use our free GasLab® software to measure and graph carbon dioxide, barometric pressure, temperature, and % relative humidity. Includes on-board memory for data logging.

Accessories
easily convert 20mm standard gas sensors from diffusion to sampling sensors. Molded polymer. Tube cap adapters are not pre-installed. For accurate results you must .
. Custom USB cable enables RS485 communication to GasLab Software for EC Sensor Board and Development Kit.
includes all the tools you need to utilize the tube-cap adapters as part of a sampling sensor system.
is a highly selective, semi-permeable membrane to water vapor. If gases inside Nafion tubing are wetter than gases surrounding the tubing, drying will occur. If the surrounding gases are wetter, humidification will occur.
provide a constant flow of air across the sensor with a tube cap - perfect for bench-top testing of sensors for closed-loop sampling applications.
gives a strong and secure container to mount the sensor. Hydrophobic filters available for enclosure for outdoor use.
