Air Quality Monitors
Whether you are working in a laboratory, factory, or office, or simply want to ensure that your home is pollutant-free, Air Quality Monitors are a vital tool for measuring the condition of the air around you.
Air Quality Monitors (also known as pollution monitors) are devices that are used to accurately check the quality of indoor and outdoor air. Many monitors provide an alert when air quality reaches unsafe levels due to harmful gases and particles. Some models can also store measurement scores and transfer them to a computer for further analysis. By checking air quality you can ensure that dangerous levels of pollutants are detected quickly, minimising the negative health effects of air pollution.
Different Types of Air Quality Monitoring Devices
Portable/Handheld Meters
Compact, easily transportable, they provide accurate measurements, store results for further analysis, and are easy to use on worksites; ideal for engineers working on location.
Desktop/Stationary Meters
Perfect for indoor air quality measurement (IAQ), highly accurate, and can be plugged into main power sources.
Air Quality Monitors
Ideal for proving that gas appliances are operating safely; essential for gas engineers.
What Do Air Quality Monitors Measure?
Air quality monitors are typically used for health and safety purposes to prevent harmful pollution such as carbon dioxide (CO2), gas, and mould. They are used to measure a range of essential parameters in PPM (particulates-per-million), typically:
- Humidity
- Temperature
- Air volume
- Air velocity
- Oxygen levels
- Carbon dioxide (CO2) levels
- % of outdoor air calculation
Air Quality Monitor Applications
Indoor Air Quality Monitoring
Air quality monitoring devices are essential for facilities maintenance and HVAC system maintenance, helping to ensure that legal air quality requirements are met. They can come in the form of meters, testers or sensors for detecting indoor gas leaks and measuring gas levels such as Volatile Organic Compounds, Formaldehyde, Nitrogen Dioxide, and other flammable, hazardous, or toxic gases in a room.
Consequently, they are widely used in various indoor environments like hospitals, airports, laboratories, and manufacturing facilities. Other indoor applications include investigating air quality, monitoring clean rooms, testing filter seals, locating particle contamination sources, and monitoring particle size distribution.
Outdoor Air Quality Monitoring
Outdoor air quality meters and monitors are used to assess and maintain air quality in external environments. They help detect and measure pollutants such as particulate matter, ozone, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen dioxide. These monitors are crucial for environmental studies, regulatory compliance, and ensuring public health. Common outdoor applications include monitoring air quality in urban areas, industrial zones, and around airports to ensure that pollution levels remain within safe limits.
