It may not be necessary to perform a calibration when using and of the Vernier ethanol sensors in the classroom.
If your experiment or application is evaluating the rate of ethanol production, such as determining fermentation rates with yeast, or...
If you want to use a Vernier CO₂ Gas Sensor and a Vernier ethanol sensor to show that CO₂ gas and Ethanol are both produced during fermentation, you should use the following protocol. Please note that you will need a BioChamber 2000 (BC-2000), a...
Two experiments that use Vernier ethanol sensors can be found on the web page for this sensor. Both experiments investigate fermentation and sugar metabolism using yeast. One exercise is written as a standard lab exercise. The second lab is written i...
All Vernier ethanol sensors will never give a reading of 0 in air because of the type of calibration formula that is used.
The minimum reading will typically fall within the following range:
Unit
% 0.007 - 0.010
ppt 0.07 - 0.100

No.
The Go Direct® Ethanol Vapor (GDX-ETOH) and Ethanol Sensor (ETH-BTA) are gas sensors that detect ethanol vapor. The sensors needs to be placed above a liquid sample. The use of Tape for Ethanol Sensor (ETH-TAPE) (one roll is included with...
All Vernier ethanol sensors need to warm up for 5 minutes before use. On first use, the ethanol sensor may need more than 5 minutes to warm up.
If the sensor is slow to warm up or respond you can do the following:
1 Expose the sensor to a dilu...
Yes, you can attach our Go Direct® Acceleration Sensor (GDX-ACC) to the green, metal carts from the Vernier Dynamics System (VDS, discontinued) using the gray, plastic bracket (A) that came with the accelerometer and the small thumbscrews/hex bol...
Ocean Optics spectrometers, including Vernier Spectrometer (V-SPEC) need to be on a recent firmware version to work with Windows 8, Windows 8.1, or Windows 10. Units with firmware older than 2007 will need a firmware update before they can connect to...
We released Graphical GW for iOS and Android as the last app to support our first generation Bluetooth sensors. Note that "Go Wireless" are wireless-only and are distinctly different from our "Go Direct" sensors, which have both Bluetooth and USB.

In general, older sensors from ULIs and Serial Boxes can be used with new interfaces using an adapter. The newer style sensors have a feature called Auto ID, and our software instantly recognizes them when connected. Older sensors do not have this fe...
