Keeping it Green: Dwyer Monitors CO2 Levels in Greenhouses

Plants thrive on CO2 for growth while producing oxygen. One thing that many people do not know is that the optimal concentration for plant growth is over three times the atmospheric CO2 concentration today. The Dwyer® Series CDT carbon dioxide/ temperature transmitter is very suitable for greenhouse applications due to its single-beam, dual-wavelength sensor that doesn’t rely on proprietary logic formulas for self-calibration.
