Description

The ZE15-CO module employs a mature electrochemical cell to detect carbon monoxide (CO) concentrations in ambient air, delivering high selectivity against common interfering gases like alcohol. Its sophisticated onboard signal conditioning circuitry provides a stable, linearized output, while the integrated temperature sensor ensures measurement accuracy across varying environmental conditions.

Designed for long-term reliability, the module features low power consumption and a typical operational lifespan of 3 to 5 years in air. Its compact form factor and dual-output interface (UART and analog voltage) make it suitable for integration into portable air quality monitors, smart home safety devices, and industrial gas detection systems requiring precise, real-time CO monitoring.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the output interface of the Winsen ZE15-CO module?

The module provides two output options: a digital UART interface (TTL level, 0V or 3V logic) for direct communication with microcontrollers, and an analog voltage output signal. This dual-output design allows for flexible integration into both digital data acquisition systems and simple analog monitoring circuits.

What is the operating voltage range for the ZE15-CO sensor?

The ZE15-CO module operates from a DC power supply ranging from 5 volts to 12 volts. This wide range accommodates common microcontroller power rails (5V) as well as standard industrial or automotive power sources (12V), simplifying power system design.

How long does the sensor take to provide a stable reading after power-on?

The module requires a preheat time of approximately 30 seconds after power is applied before it can deliver stable and accurate readings. The sensor also features a fast response time, reaching 90% of the final reading (T90) within 30 seconds of exposure to a change in CO concentration.

What is the typical lifespan of the electrochemical sensor cell?

The electrochemical sensing element within the ZE15-CO module has an expected operational lifespan of 3 to 5 years when used in normal atmospheric conditions (in air). Lifespan can be influenced by environmental factors such as extreme temperatures, humidity, and exposure to high concentrations of target or interfering gases.
