Typical Specifications
The fine dust/particulate matter sensor shall be a wall-
mounted device capable of measuring and transmitting
measured concentrations of particulates falling within the
PM2.5 and PM10 ranges. A separate 0 to 10V output shall
be provided for each range, or sensor shall be capable of
transmitting data to a network using a Modbus RTU. The
measuring range shall be 0 to 500 micrograms per cubic
meter. Sensors shall have a maximum unit-to-unit variability
of ±15 μg/m3 and ±15% of reading @ 77°F (25°C) and
50% rh.
If a display is required, the display shall be full color LCD
capable of displaying PM2.5 concentration with 1 μg/m
3
resolution as well as general air quality index based on
selectable Class I, Class II and Class III categories. The unit
shall be equipped with a proximity sensor that allows the
display to enter sleep mode if no movement is detected.
Measuring range shall have the following field selectable
ranges:
• 0 to 500 μg/m3
• 0 to 300 μg/m3
• 0 to 100 μg/m3
• 0 to 50 μg/m3
