Extech CO250 Portable Indoor Air Quality CO2 Features: Checks for Carbon Dioxide (CO2) concentrations Calculates statistical weighted averages of TWA (8 hour time weighted average) and STEL (15 minute short term exposure limit) Maintenance free NDIR (non-dispersive infrared) CO2 sensor CO2 Guidelines: Non-Enforced Reference levels: 250 – 350 ppm – background (normal) outdoor air level 350- 1,000 ppm – typical level found in occupied spaces with good air 1,000 – 2,000 ppm – level associated with complaints of drowsiness and poor 2,000 – 5,000 ppm – level associated with headaches, sleepiness, and stagnant, stale, stuffy air. Poor concentration, loss of attention, increased heart rate and slight nausea may also be >5,000 ppm – Exposure may lead to serious oxygen deprivation resulting in permanent brain damage, coma and even Regulatory exposure limits: ASHRAE Standard 62-1989: 1000ppm: CO2 concentration in occupied building should not exceed 1000ppm. OSHA: 5000ppm: Time weighted average over five 8-hour work days should not exceed 5000ppm Building bulletin 101 (Bb101): 1500ppm. UK standards for schools say that CO2 at averaged over the whole day(i.e. 9am to 3.30 pm) should not exceed 1500ppm. Germany, Japan, Australia, UK…: 5000ppm, 8 hours weighted average in occupational exposure limit is 5000ppm.
