Current Reading After Regulator Fail
The regulator valve would not close causing what was left in the 50lb CO2 bottle to enter the grow space. (Luckily an entire bottle was not wasted.) The controller reads 3016ppm which is three times the level that the preset is for. However, levels over 5000ppm are considered to be dangerous for humans so even at this 3x the preset level is still not a hazard to being in the structure.
For comparison normal (natural) levels of CO2 are around 405ppm and the target level is 1000ppm.
