The sensor excels in accurately providing PM1 concentrations for sources primarily influenced by combustion (such as traffic, residential wood burning, and wildfires), PM2.5 concentrations dominated by long-range transport, and PM10 concentrations driven by abrasive processes (such as road dust, sandstorms, construction, and mining). LEARN MORE Webinar: See the air like never before with AQT560 Join our LiveCast as air quality measurement experts introduce Vaisala Air Quality Transmitter AQT560 — providing the accuracy and reliability you need with easy deployment and integration, all in a compact package. WATCH THE WEBINAR Complete Air Quality Insight Air quality is an essential factor in creating smarter, healthier communities. And air quality is always connected to the weather. Because of this, air quality measurements are much more valuable if they are accompanied by real-time data about wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity, and other factors that directly affect pollution and its travel. This is why Vaisala allows customers to integrate our next-generation air quality sensors with versatile, reliable weather sensing solutions. With Vaisala’s exceptional products grounded in science and innovation, communities can now combine enhanced air quality measurements with weather intelligence for the complete package. The right access to the right information allows people to connect deeper to their environment and new ways of thinking about business and community. Air Quality Monitoring Applications New air quality and weather intelligence innovations are changing the way we make decisions about our communities. Our air quality monitoring solutions allow you to measure the most critical pollutants in urban environments — all in real-time — so that you can actively inform citizens, increase awareness, and decrease the effects of pollution.
