to Current Readings and Statistics

• Minimal Long-Term Maintenance

• Readings Displayed in User Selected
Measurement Unit

• Time and Money Saving with Battery Life
Management

• Continuous Monitoring

• E-mail, Text Message and Audible Alerts Pro­vide Assurance and Quality Control

Applications

• Incubator Monitoring

• Building Studies
(hospitals, schools, oices)

• HVAC System Testing

• Agricultural Studies

• Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Studies

a variety of growing applications. This data logger is ideal for
use in air quality studies including HVAC studies, as well as
day to day monitoring of plant growing cycles.

The Element CO2 data logger comes with a 16 foot cable
connected to the CO sensor, making it ideal for placement
around various sized grow rooms to ensure consistent,
optimum levels. The logger features an LCD screen which
provides instant access to current readings, as well as
minimum, maximum, and average statistics.

The device also features configurable alarms, battery life
indicator, and the ability to reset statistics without impacting
the data collection. The logger features a convenient wall
mount, while the CO2 sensor is equipped with dual lock for
easy and secure placement and eortless mobility.

Temperature recorded on the Element CO2 can be expressed in °C, °F, °R, or K while humidity can be shown in
%RH, mg/ml, and Dew Point. Carbon dioxide can be expressed as either ppm or as a percentage. All units can
be viewed on both the LCD screen as well as in the soware.

By determining the levels of carbon dioxide, improvements can be made to the ventilation systems and
optimum grow environments can be ensured.

The Element CO2 can be used as a standalone data logger, or used wirelessly to transmit collected data back to
a central PC for real time monitoring. Cloud monitoring is also possible with MadgeTech Cloud Services.

The Element CO2 can be used as a single wireless data logging system, or can be expanded to a large scale
system including hundreds of data loggers. The Element CO2 utilizes the latest version of the MadgeTech 4 Data
Logger Soware to analyze data or generate reports in graphs or tabular formats. Summary and statistic views
are also available for further analysis, as well as the capability to export to Excel®.
