A New ScioSense Gas Sensor Can Sense Hazardous Air Quality
ScioSense has launched a new gas sensor that is the industry's closest approximation of human perception of hazardous air quality. ScioSense recently announced the launch of its new indoor air quality sensor, ENS160, which uses a sophisticated sensor fusion algorithm to calculate the measured output to achieve more natural air purification than any other sensor on the market.
As a collection of forming environments and the flow sensor manufacturers, ScioSense USES four independent, highly integrated MEMS micro heating substrate for its next-generation air quality sensor to build a new system of multi-channel sensor structure, and developed a multi-sensor fusion technology - the influence of humidity on compensation at the same time, the signal from each sensor fusion.
• The new ENS160 air quality sensor adopts independent multi-channel sensing architecture and innovative multi-sensor fusion technology;
• The embedded intelligent algorithm optimizes the CO2 equivalent output to fully account for human-generated gases and has an adaptive baseline configuration to maintain accurate sensitivity to changes in air quality;
• Anti-siloxane pollution, long service life.
This new technology is based on industry-leading automatic baseline correction, which automatically resets air quality thresholds to ensure that the ENS160 can reliably detect indoor air pollution levels and odor changes no matter where you are located.
An innovative multi-sensor fusion algorithm further improves the output accuracy of equivalent carbon dioxide (ECO2), which accurately detects carbon dioxide (CO2) exhaled by the human body, as well as a range of polluting or odorous gases from other activities.
With advanced features unique to ENS160, the air quality indicators of air purification systems using this product more closely reflect the impact of air pollutants and odors on occupants of indoor spaces. Systems such as ENS160 based air purifiers, on-demand controlled ventilation systems, range hoods and smart home hubs allow for more accurate monitoring of indoor air.
Users can enjoy the clean and fresh air at any time, and avoid running air purification equipment under unnecessary conditions, thus eliminating the waste of money and energy.
The new micro heated substrate design and intelligent operation control mode are also highly resistant to siloxane pollution, ensuring long service life in any residential, commercial, professional indoor, or vehicle cabin environment.
ScioSense chief executive Dirk Enderlein said: "when ventilation or air purification equipment for air quality monitoring system failed to detect the human body odor, or stop running due to high air quality baseline setting, the actual effect on the interior space of habitat, for example, can let the students can't concentrate on learning, to get people to face because of pollution and the risk of long-term injury, and make our living space suitable for work or leisure space. The ENS160 provides a unique combination of high wideband gas sensitivity and smart selectivity that enables ventilation and air purification systems to be used in the right way at the right time to improve people's quality of life indoors."
Three types of precise air quality output
The multicomponent TrueVoTM technology used in ENS160 is sensitive to oxidizing gases such as ozone that affect indoor air quality, as well as a variety of volatile organic compounds (VOC) such as toluene, ethanol, methane, sulfur dioxide and carbon monoxide. The algorithm provided by ENS160 outputs the following three measurements:
• Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOC), based on the extensive sensitivity of ENS160 to human-generated and anthropogenic volatile organic compounds (VOCs);
• ECO2, a commonly used substitute index for human habitation density in indoor space;
• AQI (Air Quality Index) provides a variety of air quality indicators that meet international standards.
ENS160 also provides raw gas measurements to OEMs capable of developing proprietary algorithms. Besides, the ENS160 reduces the warm-up time during first use and startup time after each boot, making it the most responsive air quality sensor on the market, ideal for a system that requires quick response and expects an excellent user experience.
The sensor comes in a surface-mount package with a size of only 3 mm x 3 mm x 0.9 mm, making it the smallest fully integrated, programmable air quality sensor on the market today and suitable for integration into highly space-constrained designs such as consumer products. The ENS160 provides measured output to the host controller through a serial peripheral or an I2C interface.
Because all measurement algorithms for the sensor are run on the chip, no additional processing is required on the host computer.
ScioSense also offers an analog output version of the VOC gas sensor ENS145. This version is based on the same micro heating plate technology as ENS160 and is suitable for distributed system design. The central control host is fully in control of the measured output from the ENS145 gas sensor input.
ScioSense CJ global marketing vice President Deng added:"ScioSense gas sensor series products, with its excellent performance and stable and reliable performance, has been several well-known global automakers and widely used in intelligent household leading manufacturers, our customer base includes three German auto manufacturers and several well-known European air purifier brand manufacturers.
With the launch of ENS160, customers will be able to use air quality sensors that are more accurate and easy to use. Our strong local technical support service team will also help customers optimize their local air quality monitoring through algorithms based on their needs."
