The AQ-SPEC program has acquired a number of commercially available "low-cost" air quality sensors. Please click on the image for information on a specific sensor as provided by the manufacturer.
General Description
The particle sensor C1 in Cair detects the dust particle concentration in air and has the ability to distinguish small particles (approx 1~2 µm) from large particles (approx 3 ~10 µm). It is not capable of measuring specific particle size/weight, instead it measures the particle concentration of a given size range in particles per cubic foot (pcs/ft3). Cair also measures Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) (ppm), ambient air temperature (in degrees C) and relative humidity (%). Principle of Operation The Cair PM sensor is a particle counter where laser beams detect particles going past by their reflectivity.
