Introduction: The Lycée Français International de Delhi stands as the only school in North India officially recognized by the French Ministry of National Education. It offers the prestigious French Baccalauréat to students from over 35 countries. And it is guided by the French ideals of liberté, égalité and fraternité. Beyond academic excellence, the school places a high priority on student well-being. By understanding that a healthy learning environment is the foundation for success. In this case study, read about how Prana Air’s air monitoring solutions helped in enhancing Air Quality at Lycée Français International de Delhi.

What Was The Challenge of Air Quality at Lycée Français International de Delhi? 

Delhi’s air quality can be a serious concern, so the school first installed modern air purifiers in every classroom. To be sure these units were doing their job, Lycée Français then contacted Prana Air. Together, they set up real-time sensors to measure dust, pollen, smoke and other airborne particles. And also built an intuitive online dashboard that staff can check at a glance.

Lycée Français International de Delhi had a state-of-the-art purification system for clean air and better well-being of each student. However, they cannot check the efficiency of these air purifiers. Thus, they needed to monitor tiny dust particles (PM2.5 and PM10), carbon dioxide (CO2), TVOC (Total Volatile Organic Compounds), temperature and humidity. At the same time, they wanted parents to see live air-quality readings so everyone could stay informed. In short, the school’s challenge was to find a simple, reliable system that measures air quality in real-time. Also, it alerts staff when levels become unsafe and displays the data clearly for both teachers and families.

In this situation, Prana Air offered the best solution to monitor indoor air quality, Squair Lite. The monitor is an advanced device for the IAQ game as for utmost technology and compactness. Around 40 Squair Lite air quality monitors are strategically installed in each classroom across the school.
