Wireless Carbon Monoxide (CO) Sensor: Precision Monitoring for Enhanced Safety
Key Features:
- Extensive Measurement Range: The sensor efficiently detects Carbon Monoxide levels from 0 to 1000 ppm, essential for safety monitoring in residential and commercial settings.
- High-Resolution CO Detection: With a resolution of 1 ppm, this wireless CO sensor delivers precise readings, critical for maintaining indoor air quality.
- Reliable Accuracy: Offers an accuracy of ± (5% of reading + 10 ppm), ensuring dependable carbon monoxide monitoring across diverse environments.
- Fast Response Time: Features a quick response time of 200 seconds, allowing for timely updates and alerts, enhancing emergency response capabilities.
- Configurable Thresholds: Enables critical condition monitoring, with customizable alerts to safeguard against hazardous CO levels.
Principles of Operation:
The ioX-Connect Wireless Carbon Monoxide Sensor leverages an ultra-low power electrochemical transducer for meticulous CO level measurement. It continually assesses the air, providing updates every five seconds, which includes the current CO level, ambient temperature, and a time-weighted average (TWA) of CO exposure.
Temperature fluctuations are accounted for with each reading to ensure the sensor’s accuracy under varying environmental conditions. The sensor’s capability to refresh the TWA calculation every 15 minutes, adjusting for operational duration, makes it ideal for accurate real-time monitoring.
This sensor not only measures but also converts temperature into digital values using advanced thermistor technology, ensuring precise temperature compensation in CO detection. All data is seamlessly integrated into the ioX-Connect platform, facilitating detailed analysis and proactive management of carbon monoxide safety in places such as homes, offices, and industrial sites.

- Proven Accuracy: Features an accuracy of +/- 45 ppm plus 3% of reading, ensuring reliable data for safety and regulatory compliance.
- Dynamic Data Reporting: Provides both instantaneous CO2 levels and an 8-hour time-weighted average (TWA), enabling comprehensive CO2 monitoring.
- Configurable Alerts: Set thresholds for critical condition monitoring, allowing for immediate action to maintain safe air quality levels.
- Auto-Calibration: Includes a configurable auto-calibration function to ensure the sensor remains accurate over time without manual adjustments.
Principles of Operation:
The ioX Wireless Carbon Dioxide Sensor utilizes a state-of-the-art non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) sensing element to measure CO2 concentrations in ambient air. This technology allows for precise and continuous tracking of CO2 levels, crucial for applications requiring strict air quality control.
Data from the sensor is reported at intervals set by the user, known as the Heartbeat, ensuring that all readings are up-to-date and reflective of current conditions. The sensor also compiles an 8-hour TWA by averaging eight hours of instantaneous readings, providing a robust picture of air quality over time. This feature is particularly beneficial for monitoring environments like greenhouses, schools, office buildings, and anywhere that air quality impacts health and productivity.
Every measurement recorded by the sensor is transmitted to the gateway and integrated into the ioX-Connect platform, where it can be accessed for analysis and reporting. This integration supports proactive management of air quality, helping facility managers and health professionals ensure environments are safe and compliant with health standards.
Wireless Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) Sensor: Critical Safety Monitoring in Hazardous Environments
Key Features:
- Precise Measurement Capabilities: Monitors both instantaneous and time-weighted average (TWA) levels of H2S gas, essential for tracking this toxic compound in high-risk areas.

Principles of Operation:
The ioX Wireless Hydrogen Sulfide Sensor uses an advanced electrochemical transducer for real-time detection of H2S, a hazardous gas commonly found in petroleum drilling and sewage treatment environments. It measures H2S levels every five seconds, ensuring up-to-date and accurate gas monitoring.
Temperature compensation is integral to the sensor's operation, as temperature fluctuations can affect H2S readings. The sensor adjusts the H2S measurement based on the current temperature, which is measured using a precision thermistor and resistor setup to produce a voltage that reflects the ambient temperature. These measurements are converted into digital values and reported alongside H2S levels in every user-defined Heartbeat, as well as when predetermined thresholds are exceeded.
The sensor also recalculates the TWA for H2S every 15 minutes to provide a consistent overview of exposure levels over time. If the sensor has been active for less than 7.5 hours, it calculates the TWA based on the total runtime, ensuring all reports are reflective of the actual conditions.
All data collected by the sensor is transmitted to the gateway and made available on the ioX-Connect platform for thorough analysis and reporting. This capability supports proactive management of H2S hazards, helping to safeguard workers and maintain operational safety in potentially dangerous environments.

Please reach out to us at: sales@iox-connect.com if you have any additional questions that are not addressed below.
ioX-Connect's Wireless Sensor communication can reach 1,200+ feet through 12+ walls non-line-of-sight.
You can connect up to 50 different ioX Wireless Sensors to 1 gateway. Gateways can also serve as range extenders if you have a big site where sensors will be installed more than 1,000 ft apart.
The life span of the battery is dependent on several factors, including:
- How frequently does the sensor transmit data (Heartbeat)
- How far the sensor is from the wireless gateway
- The obstructions that can cause difficulty in sending data (farther distance and obstructions require that the radio operate at longer intervals to send and receive data)
ioX-Connect Sensors and Gateways provide automated data logging. Our sensors can store up to 4,000 messages if the gateway connection is lost (non-volatile flash, persists through the power cycle). For 10-minute Heartbeat settings, this accounts for approximately 22 days of messages or readings. For 2-hour Heartbeat settings, our sensors can log up to 266 days of readings.
Plus, our gateways can save up to 50,000 sensor messages if its connection is lost. Our sensors and gateways can log all this data before sending it to the ioX-Connect platform—our sensor management and monitoring software—for cloud storage, trending, and analysis.
ioX-Connect wireless products use Encrypt-RF bank-level security, featuring a 256-bit exchange to establish a globally unique key and an AES-128 CTR for all data messages. Security is maintained at all communication points from sensor to gateway, gateway to software, and back again.
ioX-Connect's standard wireless products use several features to help protect sensor data in transit. The proprietary sensor protocol uses very low transmit power and requires specialized radio equipment to operate. Typical wireless devices that run on non-proprietary communication protocols (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee) operate using different frequency bands, so you can't use them to eavesdrop on the radio communications from the ioX-Connect family of sensors. In addition, we use a robust packet tampering evaluation routine to ensure that traffic isn't altered between the sensors and the gateways. This enables us to check for well-formed data packets that only originate from ioX-Connect enabled devices. We have algorithms that protect against spoofing and re-transmission of wireless data packets to safeguard data further.
Absolutely! This is what sets ioX-Connect apart from all other IoT solutions out there. ioX-Connect's Analytics module allows you to combine data from different sources not just sensors to create cross functional reports, analyze and trend sensor data, interact with your historical data and collaborate across departments thereby giving you more insights into your business/operations.
Yes. The ioX-Connect platform can be fed with data from external sensors provided we can retrieve the external sensor data through some service like an API. Please reach out to us at: sales@iox-connect.com for more detail on integration capabilities.
