Chauvin CA1510 Indoor Air Quality Logger

Compliant with the latest standards for measuring CO₂ in order to assess ventilation systems and measure pollutants in the context of indoor air quality monitoring, the Chauvin C.A 1510 is also an accurate preliminary diagnostic indicator thanks to its alerts set at 1,000 ppm or 1,700 ppm of CO₂ in the air.

Carbon dioxide is a colourless and odourless gas. It is not toxic, but at high concentrations can interfere with mental concentration and cause headaches. Outdoor air contains approximately 0.04% (400 ppm) CO₂. In an indoor environment, human activity (breathing) can rapidly increase this concentration to values in excess of 1000 ppm (for example in meeting rooms or school classrooms). It is for this reason that the level of CO₂ is an excellent indicator of the efficiancy of the renewal of indoor air.

Coronavirus is airborne and transmitted through tiny droplets called aerosols that linger in the air much longer than the larger globs that come from coughing or sneezing especially in poorly ventilated indoor areas. Measuring the CO₂ concentration with the CA 1510 is a good indicator of the efficiency of room ventilation and thus of the reduction of the risk of infection.

The ambient temperature and relative humidity are two more important quantities in the monitoring of indoor air quality. Beyond certain values, they can cause discomfort and favour the propagation of moulds that release allergenic or irritant substances into the air.

The C.A 1510 combines the following functions:

Measurement of the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air (CO₂).
Measurement of the ambient temperature.
Measurement of the relative humidity.
