Capabilities

This device uses laser technology to monitor airborne particles in real-time. It can automatically measure various particle concentration levels (such as TSP, PM10, or PM2.5) and is designed for quick installation in smart city or network applications. During wildfire season, the same particulate data supports utility weather monitoring of smoke across a service territory.
