FAQs

An air quality monitor like AirLink uses a small fan to draw in air surrounding the motor. Inside the air monitor sensor, a laser shines through the air stream and a photodetector measures how much light is scattered or blocked by particles. This air ollution measurement device determines the concentration and size distribution of particulate matter (like dust, mold, and pollen) based on the intensity of scattered light that reaches the detectore functioning as an air quality gauge for PM levels.

The air quality sensor on the AirLink can measure particulates as small as 0.3 microns with a concentration accuracy of +/- 10 micrograms per cubic meter.

The device can provide a reading of particulates from less than 1 micron (PM1) to less than 10 microns (PM10). Inhalable particulates that are 2.5 microns or smaller are small enough to penetrate deeply into your lungs and can cause difficulty breathing in some people.

You can choose from air quality indexes of 9 different countries including Canada, UK, US, Mexico, China, South Korea, EU, Australia, and India.

Knowing your area’s air quality in real-time is important, especially for those who have heart and lung conditions, asthma, or allergies. You can get this information from the local news station, but air quality can change drastically during the day, especially in areas prone to wildfires or dust storms, and from one location to another. That’s why the AirLink Professional Air Quality Monitor was designed as both a professional indoor air quality monitor and an outdoor air quality monitor. Using outdoor air quality sensors alongside an indoor unit helps you decide when to close windows, run filtration, or limit outdoor activities.

Children, elders, and women who are pregnant are of special concern when air quality is poor. Wildfires as far as 200 miles away can produce dangerous particulates of PM2.5 or smaller which are hazardous for the lungs and can further aggravate respiratory issues like asthma and bronchitis.

The AirLink provides information about dust, smoke, pollution, dew point, and heat index. This information is automatically uploaded and presented in color-coded graphs that allow you to track changes over time. This allows you to monitor the air quality for sudden changes even if you cannot tell the difference physically. With two AirLinks, you can compare indoor and outdoor air quality. You can also compare different areas of your home. This information can help you decide to take action when air quality is poor.
