PM10 & PM2.5 Air Quality Sensor

PM10 & PM2.5 Air Quality Sensor - Precise Monitoring, Protecting Fresh Air 

What is an Air Quality Sensor? 

An air quality sensor is a device used to measure and monitor the concentration of pollutants in the air, providing real-time air quality data. This sensor can detect particulate matter (PM), gases, and other harmful substances, helping users assess environmental conditions and take action to improve air quality.

What is PM10? 

PM10 refers to particulate matter with a diameter of 10 micrometers or smaller, including dust, pollen, and mold. These particles can be inhaled into the lungs and may cause respiratory issues. Monitoring PM10 is especially important in areas with high dust levels or industrial activity.

What is PM2.5? 

PM2.5 refers to fine particulate matter with a diameter of 2.5 micrometers or smaller, typically originating from sources like vehicle exhaust or wildfires. Due to their small size, PM2.5 particles can penetrate deep into the lungs and even enter the bloodstream, posing a greater health risk. Precise monitoring of PM2.5 is crucial for ensuring air safety.

PM10 / PM2.5 Air Quality Sensor Installation Method 

To ensure optimal performance of the sensor, please follow these installation guidelines: 

1. Vertical Installation: The sensor must be installed vertically to ensure accurate airflow and measurement.

2. Avoid Artificial Airflow: Do not install the sensor near fans or ventilation openings. When used in air purifiers, install it on the side of the housing, ensuring the housing has ventilation openings to allow external airflow.

3. Prevent Contamination: Avoid allowing sticky particles such as oils or cotton-like debris into the module, as these could attach to optical components and cause failure.

4. Moisture Protection: Install the sensor in dry environments to prevent moisture from affecting its normal functionality.
