Abstract
A sensor arrangement for determining the CO2 concentration in an interior space has an NDIR sensor unit that can determine the number of CO2 molecules on an optical measuring section and therefrom the CO2 concentration in an interior space. The sensor arrangement further has an evaluation unit that can calculate the air pressure from measurement values of the NDIR sensor unit and that can carry out an air-pressure compensation on the basis of the value calculated for the air pressure or of an air pressure correction value calculated therefrom for the measurement value of the CO2 concentration determined by the NDIR sensor unit.
