NextPM

The NextPM sensor is a next-generation solution for air quality monitoring, delivering real-time PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 measurements in µg/m³ and pcs/L. Thanks to its patented airflow control and humidity management technology, it provides highly accurate and stable particulate matter data, even in challenging environments with high humidity or pollution. With minimal maintenance and a lifetime of up to 10 years, NextPM is ideal for smart city networks, industrial monitoring, and environmental applications.
