Personal Air Quality Monitor - AS520

Product Specification

AS520 Personal Air Quality Monitor

A wearable air quality monitoring system that makes use of a complementary range of sensing technologies to provide a complete and reliable assessment of the air quality in the immediate vicinity of the wearer.

Electrochemical cells, a laser optical particle monitor, temperature and humidity sensors are included in the system, which also incorporates a highly-sensitive GPS receiver and 3 axis accelerometer. A microphone is fitted to monitor ambient noise. A basestation provides a docking unit to store the sensor unit at night and to allow access to a regulated 12V supply to power the battery charging circuit.The basestation is fitted with a GPRS modem, patch antenna and SIM card, which are used to transmit the data that are saved on the unit during the day to a central monitoring site.
