SCD30 CO₂, Temperature and Relative Humidity Sensor

The scd30 sensor platform allows you to use your Sensirion SCD30 CO₂ (datasheet) sensors with ESPHome. The I²C Bus is required to be set up in your configuration for this sensor to work.

# Example configuration entry
sensor:
  - platform: scd30
    co2:
      name: "Workshop CO2"
      accuracy_decimals: 1
    temperature:
      name: "Workshop Temperature"
      accuracy_decimals: 2
    humidity:
      name: "Workshop Humidity"
      accuracy_decimals: 1
    temperature_offset: 1.5 °C
    address: 0x61
    update_interval: 5s

Configuration variables:

  • co2 (Optional): The information for the CO₂ sensor.

  • temperature (Optional): The information for the Temperature sensor.

  • humidity (Optional): The information for the Humidity sensor.

  • temperature_offset (Optional, float): Temperature and humidity offsets may occur when operating the sensor in end-customer devices. This variable allows the compensation of those effects by setting a temperature offset.

  • automatic_self_calibration (Optional, boolean): Whether to enable automatic self calibration (ASC). Defaults to true.

  • ambient_pressure_compensation (Optional, int): Enable compensation of measured CO₂ values based on given ambient pressure in mBar.

  • altitude_compensation (Optional, int): Enable compensating deviations due to current altitude (in metres). Notice: setting altitude_compensation is ignored if ambient_pressure_compensation is set.

  • address (Optional, int): Manually specify the I²C address of the sensor. Defaults to 0x61.

  • update_interval (Optional, Time): The interval to check the sensor. Defaults to 60s.
