Indoor Air Quality Monitor Model 2212
Handheld multi-parameter IAQ monitor that simultaneously measures CO, CO₂, temperature and relative humidity, then calculates dew point, wet-bulb temperature, absolute humidity, humidity ratio and percentage of outside air.
Model Overview
| Model | Measured parameters | Calculated values | Primary use |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2212 | CO, CO₂, temperature and relative humidity | Dew point, wet-bulb temperature, absolute humidity, humidity ratio and % outside air | IAQ investigation, commissioning and ventilation assessment |
Key Features
Simultaneous multi-parameter measurement
Measures CO, CO₂, air temperature and relative humidity with one replaceable probe.
Derived psychrometric values
Calculates dew point, wet-bulb temperature, absolute humidity and humidity ratio.
Outside-air calculation
Uses temperature or CO₂ measurements to calculate percentage of outside air for ventilation checks.
Built-in data storage
Stores up to 1,500 measurements for point-by-point surveys and later review.
User calibration functions
Provides calibration modes for CO and CO₂ and supports an optional analogue output.
PC data workflow
RS-232C output and included data-processing software support transfer, statistics and reporting.
