CO2Meter RAD-0301 Overview
The CO2Meter RAD-0301 is a premium CO2 monitor that tracks CO2 and Temperature. It uses a NDIR sensor — the technology we recommend for reliable CO2 readings — with a stated accuracy of ±30 ppm across a 0-10000 ppm measurement range. At $250, it is aimed at professional applications and commercial buildings.
In day-to-day use, the RAD-0301 offers an onboard display, so you can read levels at a glance without opening an app, plus USB connectivity for logging trends and setting alerts, plus a stationary design (USB powered) best suited to continuous monitoring in a fixed location.
