Accuracy you can trust, building standard compatibility you need: Sensirion launches upgraded photoacoustic CO₂ sensor

We are excited to announce the upcoming launch of SCD43, the latest Photoacoustic NDIR CO₂ sensor from Sensirion. SCD43 is compatible with ASHRAE 62.1 Draft Addendum d and will be available to customers and via Sensirion’s distribution partners in summer of 2025.

 Stäfa, Switzerland – SCD43 is a drop-in upgrade based on Sensirion's market-proven SCD4x platform. The sensor will offer customers a compact, high-accuracy CO₂ sensor that fulfills the requirements of the most stringent building standards. This includes the requirements of the current draft of Addendum d to the American ASHRAE 62.1 standard for demand-controlled ventilation (DCV) systems.

SCD43 is the result of many years of experience with and continued research and development efforts into the SCD4x Photoacoustic NDIR CO₂ sensor platform. Refined manufacturing and calibration processes enable a sensor specified to the industry's "best-in-class" measurement accuracy of +-(30ppm + 3% m.v.).
