General Description
The Elm Monitor measures ozone (O3), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), total volatile organic compounds (VOC), particulate matter (PM10) noise, relative humidity (RH) and temperature (T). Some versions carry an optional nitric oxide (NO) or sulfur dioxide (SO2) sensor.
Principle of Operation
The device incorporates metal-oxide sensors to measure
NO2,
O3 and VOC. It also employs a light-scattering sensor to measure PM10. Noise is detected through a microphone, while a dielectric film is used to measure temperature and relative humidity.
Elm measures pollutant levels in real
time, wirelessly transmitting the data to a cloud-based system for
storage, analysis and processing.
