This thermopile sensor from TE Connectivity operates on the principle of converting infrared radiation into a measurable electrical voltage. It is specifically filtered for a 4.26 μm wavelength, aligning with the primary absorption band of carbon dioxide (CO2), making it an ideal detector for Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) gas analyzers. The integrated reference sensor compensates for ambient temperature variations, ensuring measurement accuracy.
The sensor features a fast rise time and a high signal-to-noise ratio, enabling precise detection in applications ranging from indoor air quality monitoring to industrial process control. Its TO-18 package offers a durable, industry-standard form factor for reliable integration into optical assemblies and sensing modules.
