Wireless Ethanol Sensor with Display
The Wireless Ethanol (Vapor) Sensor measures the concentration of gaseous ethanol up to 3%. In biology and environmental science labs, students can learn about anaerobic respiration by measuring the production of ethanol by bacterial or yeast fermentation. Physics students can begin to explore combustion and thermodynamics. Chemistry students can compare vapor composition over simple solutions. Connect your students to studies of fermentation, respiration, solutions, and generation of alternative energy sources.
The ethanol sensor has a bright OLED screen that is easily visible, even when outdoors. Students power on the sensor and get instantaneous measurements. It also supports live data streaming and remote datalogging with PASCO software for deeper analysis.
Note: This is a gas sensor - it should not be submerged in liquids. If exposed to gases with ethanol concentrations above the recommended maximum of 3%, the sensor element's life span may be shortened.
