Clivex Portable O3 Ozone Detector with Alarm – Ozone Meter for Grow Room Safety

Frequently asked questions

• Why is your sense of smell not enough to tell whether there is ozone?

  Because the characteristic smell appears well below dangerous levels and your sense of smell saturates very quickly. Ozone is an excellent disinfectant, but above certain concentrations it irritates the airways, and you simply cannot estimate that by eye.

• What exactly does the Clivex detector do?

  It measures the ozone concentration in real time and shows it on the display. It also triggers an audible alarm as soon as the safety level you have set is exceeded.

• When should I use it?

  If you use an ozone generator to deodorise rooms, storage spaces or drying rooms; before going into a freshly ozonated room to confirm it has aired out; and to set the timer intervals on your ozone generator using real data.

• At what height should I take the reading?

  Measure at breathing height and at several points around the room. Ozone is denser than air and tends to build up low down, so a single reading can mislead you.

• Is there anything I should do before taking the reading?

  Yes, let the sensor stabilise in the open air before going into the area you want to measure. Then ventilate until the reading drops below your threshold before you start working inside.

• Can I take it from one room to another?

  Yes, its portable format is designed precisely for that, and it is ready to use straight away: switch it on, wait for the sensor to stabilise and read. If you work with ozone regularly, it is not an extra but the piece that makes using it safe.
