Air Quality Monitoring

Air quality monitoring is a critical task globally due to the widespread concern over air pollution. It is vital to monitor air quality to ensure that individuals and the environment are not exposed to hazardous concentrations of specific gases and particulates, including dust.
Why Monitor Air Quality?

Air pollution is of great concern around the world and therefore air quality monitoring is an important activity taken by Environmental Health Practitioners and Environmental Consultants. Ensuring the environment is free from dangerous levels of certain gases and particulates, such as dust, is essential in order to keep people and the environment healthy.

We offer air quality monitoring equipment with sensors for fine dust, ultrafine particles, and gaseous pollutants through our cloud-based instrument the Quantum Outdoor.

Key Environmental Pollutants

Key environmental pollutants discovered during Air Quality Monitoring include:

  • Gases such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen dioxide and nitrate.
  • Particulates, including respirable particles with sizes PM 1, PM 2.5 and PM 10.

 

Many of these gases and particulates are found in vehicle and motor exhausts, as well as in smoke from burning oil and coal, and in dust from demolition, construction and quarrying for example.

How Can Cirrus Help?

Cirrus Research has partnered with South Coast Science, experts in air quality monitoring, to offer you the best out-of-the-box solution for urban air quality monitoring.

With the South Coast Praxis OPCube or Urban air quality monitor, you can detect critical environmental pollutants and particulates, including respirable particles with sizes PM 1, PM 2.5 and PM 10 (MCERTS certified for PM2.5 and PM10). These gases and particulates are found in vehicle and motor exhausts, smoke from burning oil and coal, and dust from demolition, construction, and quarrying.
