Grove VOC and eCO2 Gas Sensor, SGP30

The Grove VOC and eCO2 Gas Sensor is an advanced air quality sensor module based on the Sensirion SGP30 digital multi-pixel gas sensor. Designed for seamless integration, it provides precise measurements of TVOC (Total Volatile Organic Compounds) and equivalent CO₂ (eCO2) levels, making it an ideal solution for monitoring indoor air quality in homes, offices, and IoT environments.

Powered by Sensirion’s CMOSens® technology, the sensor integrates a complete system on a single chip. This includes a digital I2C interface, a temperature-controlled micro hotplate, and two pre-processed indoor air quality signals. The module offers outstanding long-term stability and very low power consumption, ensuring reliable, continuous operation in battery-powered or energy-sensitive applications.

Key Features

• Delivers accurate TVOC (0 ppb to 60,000 ppb) and CO₂eq (400 ppm to 60,000 ppm) output signals.
• Features a standard I2C interface for easy connection to popular microcontrollers like Arduino and Raspberry Pi.
• Operates on a flexible working voltage of 3.3V or 5V, providing broad compatibility with different development boards and systems.
• The compact Grove form-factor simplifies wiring, requiring just a single cable to connect to a Grove base shield, speeding up prototyping and project development.

Applications

This sensor is perfectly suited for integration into smart home systems, air purifiers, and demand-controlled ventilation systems. Its robust data output and stability make it a cornerstone for environmental monitoring projects, enabling the creation of devices that can automatically respond to changes in air quality to promote health and wellbeing.
