HTRAM CO2 sensor to reduce the Covid infection risk

Monitoring CO2 to prevent the Covid risk

Research conducted by scientists at the University of Colorado^2,3 has shown that real-time monitoring of indoor ambient air can be an indicator of increased risk of airborne viral transmission, utilizing different levels of risk-based factors such as CO₂ concentration levels and the type of human activity in the area.*

The HTRAM CO2 sensor to prevent the risk of Covid

The HTRAM CO2 sensor (Honeywell Transmission Risk Air Monitor) integrates three pre-programmed indoor activity parameters:

• low activity: Cinemas, libraries and classrooms ...
• Moderate activity: Restaurants, offices, small clinics ...
• High activity: Sports halls, indoor stadiums, recreation centers ...

For each parameter, the monitor provides indications like a traffic light (green, yellow or red) and with the aid of an audible alarm, so that users are informed of the presence of conditions that may increase the risk of viral transmission through breathed air, based on detectable CO2 levels.

The HTRAM CO2 sensor analyzes specific air quality conditions and warns the user of conditions that may increase the risk of exposure to virus transmission through breathed air. It is recommended for spaces from 74 to 93 square meters. It does not prevent or reduce virus transmission, nor does it restrict viruses that may be present in ambient air.

A simple and intuitive CO2 indicator

• Green LED: Potentially low risk of viral transmission through breathed air
• Yellow LED: Potentially moderate risk of viral transmission through breathed air: open windows and ventilate the room.
• Red LED: Potentially high risk of viral transmission through breathed air: immediately ventilate the room, reduce activities, leave the room until the indicator goes down.

Features & Benefits of HTRAM Honeywell

The HTRAM CO2 sensor communicates with a smartphone

The HTRAM can be connected via Bluetooth to a smartphone via the Transmission Risk Air Monitor by Honeywell application. This very intuitive application allows:

• Select the level of activity in the room (low, moderate or high activity mode).
• Customize the trigger points for each alarm (e.g. HSEs who want lower alarm triggering thresholds).
• To consult the history of measurements over the last 90 days in the form of curves ...
