The PM1, PM2.5, PM10, TVOC, formaldehyde, humidity, and temperature are some of the characteristics that are measured by the PCE-RCM 15 Particle Counter, which is a device that monitors the quality of the air that is found inside buildings.
Particulate matter, often known as PM, refers to very small particles of either solid or liquid that are found in the atmosphere.
Total volatile organic compounds, often known as TVOC, are potentially hazardous gases that can be released into the air by a variety of different sources, including paints, cleansers, cosmetics, and furniture.
Formaldehyde is a typical contaminant found within buildings, and exposure to it can result in discomfort and allergic reactions.
The current readings of each parameter can be viewed on the PCE-RCM 15 Particle Counter’s expansive LCD display, which is located on the front of the device. A color-coded indicator that displays the air quality level according to the AQI (Air Quality Index) standard is also included.
The gadget has the capacity to store up to 5000 records of data and may be linked to a personal computer (PC) through USB for the purposes of transferring data and conducting analysis. The battery in the device is rechargeable and has a life span of up to 4 hours when used in a continuous fashion.
The PCE-RCM 15 Particle Counter is a versatile instrument that may be used in a variety of settings, including the home, the office, the classroom, the hospital, the hotel, the laboratory, and other indoor places where maintaining high air quality is essential.
It can assist you in locating the sources of pollution, allowing you to take the required steps toward enhancing the quality of the air in your home and protecting your health.
