Product Summary
The PASPORT Oxygen Gas Sensor accurately measures oxygen concentrations in the atmosphere or within enclosed spaces, such as terrariums. The sensor’s wide range (0-100%) enables students to use it for most experiments and investigations. When combined with the CO2 Gas Sensor, students can perform comparative environmental and physiological activities in the classroom or field.
