Hi,

Only to know the range of the CO sensor from Parallax (code 27931) .

I read the pdf but I can't find the answer about the range
of it.

Any information about the range will be usefull.

Thanks, Joe

    I'm assuming that you are referring the the PPM?· If so, here is a link for the calibration process that will allow you to experiment, so that you can find the max range:

    Thanks ,


    The problem I have is that I can't find the minimun range (in PPM)
    of the sensor .

    It is important to know about the range of the sensor because
    I want to measure 50 PPM and I don't know if the sensor could sense
    50 PPM or less.

    Thanks, Joe
