## Description

A multifunction air quality monitor that measures particulate matter (PM2.5), formaldehyde concentration, temperature, and humidity. It uses laser scattering to detect suspended particles in the air, an electrochemical probe for formaldehyde detection, and an integrated sensor for temperature and humidity readings. The sensor outputs data via serial interface at 9600 bps and operates at 3.3V logic levels, making it compatible with most microcontrollers. Its six-sided shielding design provides high anti-interference performance, and the air inlet/outlet direction can be adapted to different enclosure designs. Key Features PM2.5 Detection – Laser scattering measurement for particles 0.3–10µm Formaldehyde Sensor – Electrochemical probe, 0–1 mg/m³ effective range Temperature Sensor – -20°C to 99°C range, ±0.5°C accuracy Humidity Sensor – 0–99% range, ±2% accuracy Fast Response – Total response time ≤10 seconds Zero False Alarm Rate – Reliable real-time readings Six-Sided Shielding – Patent structure for high anti-interference performance Specifications Operating Voltage – 5.0V DC Active Current – 100mA Standby Current – ≤200µA Interface Level – 3.3V logic (L &amp;lt;0.8V, H &amp;gt;2.7V) Baud Rate – 9600 bps (default) Particle Range – 0–500µg/m³ (effective), up to 2000µg/m³ (max) Particle Resolution – 1µg/m³ Minimum Particle Size – 0.3µm distinguishable Counting Efficiency – 50% at 0.3µm, 98% at ≥0.5µm Operating Temperature – -10°C to +60°C MTTF – ≥3 years Weight – 50g Dimensions – 50 × 38 × 21mm Ideal For Indoor air quality monitoring stations Environmental sensing and data logging Smart home air quality systems HVAC and ventilation monitoring Package Contents 1× Air Quality Monitor sensor 1× 8-pin cable 1× PM2.5 adapter board
