General Description
The Elm Monitor measures ozone (O3 ), nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ), total volatile organic compounds (VOC), particulate matter (PM10 ) noise, relative humidity (RH) and temperature (T). Some versions carry an optional nitric oxide (NO) or sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ) sensor.
Principle of Operation
The device incorporates metal-oxide sensors to measure
NO 2 ,
O3 and VOC. It also employs a light-scattering sensor to measure PM10 . Noise is detected through a microphone, while a dielectric film is used to measure temperature and relative humidity.
Elm measures pollutant levels in real
time, wirelessly transmitting the data to a cloud-based system for
storage, analysis and processing.
