Fermion: SGP40 VOC Air Quality Sensor - Smart IAQ Monitoring (Breakout)

The Sensirion SGP40 provides lab-quality volatile organic compound monitoring in a compact 18mm package, delivering immediate air quality indexes ranging from 0 to 500 without the need for calibration. This compact sensor is equipped with a built-in algorithm from Sensirion, allowing it to generate ready-to-use air quality scores from 1 to 1000 ppm of ethanol equivalent effortlessly.

Its integrated CMOSens® technology ensures an accurate measurement with ±15% precision, even in environments ranging from -10°C to 50°C. The system automatically compensates for humidity variations, ensuring consistent and reliable data across different conditions. This feature makes it suitable for various applications that require precise air quality monitoring.

With an ultra-fast response time of just two seconds, the sensor detects changes in air quality quicker than human perception, which is crucial for real-time applications such as ventilation control in kitchens, laboratories, and smart home systems. Whether in domestic or more demanding environments, it provides dependable performance for continuous monitoring needs.

Notably, the SGP40 is highly efficient, consuming only 2.6mA during operation, which is up to 60% less power than comparable sensors. This efficiency makes it an excellent choice for continuous IoT monitoring applications where power consumption is a significant consideration, ensuring extended operation without frequent battery replacements.
