AQT560 air quality sensor.

Detect top-priority pollutants across cities and industries with AQT560

AQT560 is a compact air quality sensor for measuring gasses and particles. 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).

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.
