Hi "PAS CO2" team,
I have some questions regarding the life time of thePAS CO2.
1. I think that the IR Emitter and the optical filter affect the life time. So are these products made in-house?
2. The metal cavity may inflate(or ) depends on temperature. Does it afect the mesurement accuracy and the life time?
3. The "Lifetime" of the datasheet is verified by design/characterization. What is the main factor to be afected to Lifetime? IR Emitter, Optical Filer or Metal Cavity?

Best regards,
H.N

Hi @h_nakamura ,

The cumulative effect of the parts have been taken into consideration while stating the lifetime of the PASCO2 sensor as typically, 10 Years. 

Best regards,
