Vernier Ethanol (Alcohol) Sensor
The Vernier Ethanol Sensor can be used to measure the concentration of ethanol in air above an aqueous sample. This sensor can be used in a wide range of tests and experiments. The sensor can determine the rate of ethanol production during fermentation and can also measure the discrete amount of ethanol in a given sample.
Note: The Ethanol Sensor is a gas sensor and should never be submerged in liquid
Requirements:
This sensor requires suitable software and an interface such as one of the Vernier LabQuest variations.
For comprehensive details of the possible sensor/interface/software combinations see the Compatibility Guide link below.
