NextPM – Particulate Matter Sensor

OEM gas sensor with state of the art sensing technology.

PM

NextPM sensor is the most advanced particle measurement solution available on the market

NextPM has been designed to meet the very highest performance standards in all applications. Featuring advanced technical specifications that enable ultra-precise measurements to be obtained, even in extreme climatic conditions.

Providing real-time PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 measurements in both µg/m3 and pcs/L, compared with some alternatives which are only able to estimate PM 2.5 and PM 10. It can detect particle concentrations in the range of 0 to 1000 µg/m3 and between 0.3 and 10 µm in diameter.

With its patented air flow control technology, NextPM can deliver up to 10,000 hours of monitoring without the need for maintenance or calibration and boasts the most competitive cost of operation on the market thanks to its low power consumption, typically less than 80mA in operation.
