PM2.5 refers to particles that are 2.5 microns or smaller in diameter. This sensor uses laser
scattering to radiate suspending particles in the air, then collects scattering light to obtain the curve of
scattering light change with time. The microprocessor calculates equivalent particle diameter and the
number of particles with different diameter per unit volume.

Figure 3 Wireless communication is susceptible to interference, distance, walls and metal barriers. We recommend the following best practices for trouble free wireless communication. 1. Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI). Keep the console several feet away from computer monitors and TVs. 2. Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). If you have other 433 MHz devices and communication is intermittent, try turning off these other devices for troubleshooting purposes. -

With PM2.5 sensors, fog reflects the light, and can result in a higher reading. This is characteristic to the inherent sensor design. The condition occurs during rainy or foggy weather, where: Outdoor Temperature - Dew point Temperature ≤ 2º C (3.6 ºF) Thus, when the air is nearly saturated, the data is invalid. -
