Air Quality Sensors

VOC, CO2, Particulate, NO2, CO, & Refrigerant


VOC - Volatile Organic Compounds

Humans respirate Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) as well as CO2. The BAPI sensor is able to measure these VOCs and indicate when a space is occupied just as well as a CO2 sensor. The advantage of the VOC sensor is that it measures air contaminants from other sources besides respiration, such as building materials, cleaners, perfumes and furniture and carpet off-gassing. Using this sensor for Demand Controlled Ventilation then is a way of achieving true indoor air quality, rather than just CO2 dilution. A further benefit is that it requires no additional work on your part. That’s because the sensor converts the VOC reading to a CO2 equivalent level. This lets you use ASHRAE’s CO2-based VRP schedule to ventilate.

The BAPI-Stat “Quantum Prime” unit comes with a large display and VOC, temperature and humidity sensing plus temperature setpoint and occupancy override. The display alternates between the measured values and the VOC level is indicated as “Good, Fair or Poor” by three discrete green, yellow and red LEDs on the front of the unit.


Carbon Dioxide

The BAPI CO2 Sensor is an accurate and reliable way of incorporating demand controlled ventilation into a building’s HVAC strategy. The Dual Channel “24/7” unit has been optimized for continuously occupied areas and features a three-point calibration process for enhanced stability, accuracy and reliability. It includes a built-in Barometric pressure sensor that continuously compensates the output for accurate readings despite the weather or altitude of the installation.

The BAPI-Stat “Quantum Prime” Unit Without Display comes as a CO2, temperature and humidity sensor. The CO2 level is indicated as “Good, Fair or Poor” by three discrete green, yellow and red LED’s on the front of the unit.


Particulate 

The BAPI-Stat “Quantum” Particulate Sensor is an accurate and reliable way of continuously monitoring the concentration of particles in a room. Laser-based sensors provide the highest accuracy for commercial applications and will measure particle concentrations from 0 to 1,000 µg/m³. A 60mm mounting base is available to fit many styles of junction boxes.

  • Field Selectable Particulate Size of PM1.0, PM2.5 and PM10
  • Field Selectable Outputs of 0 to 5V, 0 to 10V and 4 to 20mA
  • Laser-based, light scattering particle sensing with 10 year expected lifetime.


Carbon Monoxide 

BAPI’s Carbon Monoxide Rough Service Sensor offers enhanced electrochemical sensing with outstanding accuracy at low concentrations. It features a ventilated BAPI-Box and is ideal for parking ramps, equipment rooms and warehouses.

The sensor has a CO range of 0 to 500 ppm with field selectable outputs of 0 to 5, 1 to 5, 0 to 10 and 2 to 10 VDC. It includes optional humidity measurement with one of the above voltage outputs, and temperature via a 10K-2, 10K-3 or 20K Thermistor. The CO, temperature and humidity outputs are also available via BACnet MS/TP.

  • Field Replaceable Electrochemical Sensor with Self-Test
  • Optional BACnet MS/TP Output of CO, Temp and Humidity
  • Certificate of Calibration Included with Sensors and Replacement Modules


Refrigerant Leak Detection

The BAPI Refrigerant Leak Detector is an area monitor that detects a wide range of refrigerants. It is not intended for critical ppm measurements nor life safety applications. The sensor is temperature compensated for improved detection of leaks and spills. The output voltage increases as the concentration of the refrigerant increases in the space.
