NEW FROM TI GAS SENSORS
4GS CARBON DIOXIDE SENSOR
TI’s next generation CO2 sensor, the 4GS,
will positively change your perception of
infrared gas sensors.
Infrared carbon dioxide sensors have been
regarded by the engineering community as
accurate, reliable, long life instruments.
Typically, they have also been considered too
costly and complex, and user unfriendly for
installation and field service personnel.
TI-4GS
The 4GS CO2 sensor is suitable for
Now, with Texas Instruments' innovative applications in HVAC demand ventilation,
reference channel design combined with Indoor Air Quality Instrumentation, and other
on-board configuration and calibration industrial uses:
software, you can have the high
performance of infrared sensing , low • Quick, easy set-up
acquisition and life-cycle costs , compact • Configure the unit’s span point, relay set
packaging and ease of use with the TI- point and select output options in
4GS. software directly at the sensor, based on
your specific needs
Texas Instruments, well known for • NO computer or RS-232 interface
technology leadership, has designed and required for adjustments to the TI-4GS
manufactured HVACR sensors and controls • Unique two-pushbutton design of the TI-
