Opus 20 datalogger with CO2 measurement

Opus 20 datalogger with CO2 measurement

The amount of carbon dioxide had been virtually constant at 280 ppm (particles per million) – i.e 280 gas molecules per million air molecules – the last ten thousand years. However in recent years, this measured value has been increasing rapidly at approx. 2 % per year. A high level of CO 2 in the air within a room causes headaches, tiredness and lack of concentration. The regulation on CO 2 concentration was established in order to evaluate IAQ (Indoor Air Quality). Normal atmospheric air in so-called ‘clean air areas’ has a level of 360 ppm and approx. 500 ppm in urban areas. The limit of 1,000 ppm (“Pettenkofer Figure”) is still seen as being adequate indoor-air quality, which is especially important when regarding all meetings and conference rooms, as well as schools and open-plan offices. As a guideline for school rooms in the USA the limit of 1,000 ppm applies; for workplaces the occupational exposure limit is 5,000 ppm.

Mersen - a major supplier of the photovoltaic value chain.

Mersen - a major supplier of the photovoltaic value chain.

Polysilicon is the key material used in photovoltaic cells whose purification requires large amount of our equipments: •Hydro Chloric acid stripper for the silanes production. •Graphite equipments for Siemens, FBR and UMG processes. Polysilicon chunks are then melted in high temperature furnaces to produce the round- or square-section ingots that will be used for making photovoltaic cells. Three main processes can be used to transform polysilicon into solar cells: •CZ process for mono-crystalline cells •DSS process for multi-crystalline cells •Ribbon growth for thin multi-crystalline cells Mersen provides long lasting process solutions to achieve the best solar cell efficiency and to reduce the energy consumption in the process. In the transmission of power from the solar panels to the grid, Mersen provides electrical components for circuit protection (Current, Voltage surge and Cooling for power electronics).
