TERA Sensor Next-PM Particle Matter/Dust Air Quality Sensor for Dust Air Quality Sensor

Next-PM

Next-PM is the most advanced particle measurement solution available on the market. Its size and weight allows an easy integration into all systems. UART and / or Modbus connection.
The Next-PM sensor series has been designed to meet the highest standards. With 3 patents offering the best quality / size / price compromise, Next-PM provides real time PM1, PM2,5 and PM10 in number or mass (μg / m3 and pc / L.)
Thanks to its patented air flow control technology, Next-PM ensures years of maintenance-free measurements, even in a highly polluted and humid atmosphere.

Advantages

• No loss of performance due to fouling, even in the presence of high pollution.
• No maintenance or calibration during the life of the sensor.
• Stable response, even in high humidity conditions.
• Lowest cost of operation on the market.
• Ability to deport sample taking through the tubing adapter on the air inlet.
