Product Overview

A compact NDIR module for indoor carbon-dioxide monitoring with UART and PWM interfaces.

The MH-Z19D detects CO2 through non-dispersive infrared absorption, providing good selectivity and measurement independent of oxygen concentration.

Its integrated optical and electronic design supports simple OEM integration into air-quality meters and ventilation controls.

Designed for Reliable Integration
